UK portfolio helps Redefine International bulk up

Redefine International, the London and JSE-listed diversified property fund, acquires a R10bn property portfolio in the UK as it aggressively builds up its asset base.

Redefine International, the FTSE 250 UK Real Estate Investment Trust announces that it has disposed of its entire remaining shareholding in the Cromwell Property Group, held through its 100% owned subsidiary Redefine Australian Investments Limited.

According to Catalyst Fund Managers, the SA Listed Property Index (SAPY) recorded a positive return of 5.14% for the month ended July 2015.

IndluPlace Properties is likely to pave the way for more specialist property listings. Redefine International’s hotel exposure is already at 20% of total assets so a separate hotel listing is the logical route.

The SA Listed Property Index (J253) recorded a positive return of 0.04% for the month ended April 2015.

Redefine International completed the first part of the refinancing related to the €156.8m German retail property portfolio acquired in a 50/50 joint venture with Redefine Properties.

Redefine Properties today reported distribution growth of 7.1% to 39 cents per share for the half year to 28 February 2015, delivering on its market guidance.

Redefine International announce appointment of CFO.
