Savills has announced that its private client desk has transacted approx two million sq ft of industrial warehouse space so far this year, equating to 79% of the total £135m traded.

Gary Phillips of Savills’ private client desk says: “In a white-hot market with stiff competition we have secured a number of industrial opportunities and in offering sizeable non-refundable deposits together with rapid exchange of contracts, this has proved a winning formula. In addition, our close relationship with major lenders has led to creative financial restructuring.”
