Custodian Property Income REIT (CREI) is a London Main Market-listed REIT focused on commercial property in the UK outside London. It is income-focused, with a commitment to pay a high but sustainable and covered dividend.
Across much of the commercial market, especially for industrial and logistics, occupier demand remains robust, new supply restricted, and rents are increasing. Investment demand has begun to pick up from very low levels and the turn of the interest rate cycle should provide further support.
