Syndicated property back

Oyster Group managing director Mark Winter says syndicates are becoming “flavour of the month” again after a couple of years of lean pickings.

Investor demand is being driven by a couple of factors, one of the main ones is that rates on traditional bank deposits are very low and in real terms, after tax and inflation, close to zero.

Oyster Group has done two syndicates recently and filled them both within less than three weeks each.

Winter says the investment climate for syndicates is ideal, as the group is now able to acquire commercial property at good prices.
