Why invest in industrial property in the UK?
Industrial property is a strong-performing asset class, offering stable rental yields, growing tenant demand, and relatively low vacancy rates. The rise of e-commerce and logistics has further increased demand for warehouses and distribution space.
What types of industrial properties are available to buy in East of England?
You’ll find a range of industrial assets including light industrial units, storage depots, warehouses, manufacturing sites, and logistics centres. Properties may be single-let, multi-let, or part of larger estates.
What should I consider before buying industrial property?
Key considerations include location, access to transport routes, tenant demand, condition of the building, lease status (vacant or tenanted), yield potential, and long-term capital growth. It's also essential to review planning use class and site constraints.
What is a good rental yield for industrial property?
Rental yields vary by region and risk profile. In 2025, typical net yields range from 5% to 7% in regional areas, and 3.5% to 5% in prime locations such as London or the South East. Yields depend on tenancy, lease length, and asset quality.
Do I need to pay VAT or Stamp Duty on industrial property purchases?
Yes. Commercial property purchases are usually subject to Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT). VAT may also apply if the seller has opted to tax the property. Always get tax advice before proceeding with a purchase.
Can I buy industrial property through a pension or company?
Yes. Many investors purchase through a limited company or a pension scheme such as a SIPP or SSAS. These structures can offer tax advantages but involve specific rules and administrative responsibilities.
Is it better to buy a vacant unit or one with a tenant in place?
It depends on your strategy. Tenanted properties provide immediate rental income and stability, while vacant units may offer opportunities to refurbish, reposition, or secure higher-value tenants — though they come with short-term risk.
What are the risks of buying industrial property?
Risks include tenant default, lease voids, unexpected maintenance costs, planning restrictions, and market fluctuations. Mitigating these requires good due diligence, professional advice, and strategic asset management.
How do I finance an industrial property purchase?
Commercial mortgages are available from banks and specialist lenders. Loan-to-value (LTV) ratios typically range from 60% to 75%, and terms depend on income from the asset, buyer profile, and lender requirements.

Industrial property remains one of the most robust and sought-after sectors within the UK commercial property market, with various options to invest in East of England. Fuelled by the continued rise of e-commerce, logistics, manufacturing, and life sciences, the demand for warehouse and industrial space has consistently outpaced supply—particularly in logistics corridors such as the Midlands, South East, and North West. For investors, the sector offers strong fundamentals, attractive yields, and long-term tenancies from dependable occupiers. Properties available for sale span from small light industrial units and workshops to large-scale logistics sheds and multi-let estates, offering a range of entry points and asset strategies.

When purchasing industrial property in East of England, investors should carefully assess location, building specification, tenancy profile, and development potential. Proximity to major roads such as the M1, M6, or M25, and to ports or urban centres, is often a key driver of tenant demand. Unit features such as minimum eaves height, loading access, yard space, and potential for extension or refurbishment can significantly affect rental value and capital appreciation. With ESG considerations and EPC compliance gaining importance, sustainable and energy-efficient assets are increasingly preferred by occupiers and institutional buyers alike. Whether investing for income, long-term capital growth, or redevelopment, industrial property offers a resilient, future-facing opportunity in today’s market.

  • Location: Prioritise access to major motorways, urban centres, ports, and last-mile logistics networks
  • Tenant covenant: Evaluate tenant strength, lease length, rent review clauses, and potential void risks
  • Unit specification: Look for good eaves height, ample yard space, multiple loading doors, and modern construction
  • Planning classification: Confirm permitted use (e.g. B2/B8) and any potential for future change of use or redevelopment
  • Rental growth prospects: Focus on supply-constrained areas with rising occupier demand
  • Energy performance: EPC ratings and sustainable features are increasingly crucial for compliance and marketability
  • Exit strategy: Consider long-term income, break-up potential, or sale to institutional funds or REITs
