Led by Matt Lenzie, ex-Lloyds Bank and Bank of Scotland, we arrange commercial mortgages, bridging finance, and development finance across Southgate and the wider Enfield area.
Investors in Southgate benefit from outer-London pricing combined with improving market fundamentals and transport links, with retail rents of £18-32 per square foot and office space from £15-25 per square foot. Average yields of 6.4% across Enfield provide a useful benchmark, with individual Southgate properties varying by asset quality, lease length, and exact location. The 16.5% five-year price growth recorded across the wider area supports development and refurbishment viability in Southgate.
Selective redevelopment and change-of-use conversions characterise Southgate's development pipeline, with investors targeting period buildings for modernisation. Meridian Water delivering 10,000 homes with commercial space creates a positive backdrop for investment in the area and supports higher end values for completed projects. Refurbished commercial space commands a measurable rent premium over un-improved stock, supporting viable project appraisals.
