Schroder Real Estate has announced that it has spent £33m of the £40.2m it raised recently to acquire a 25% stake in City Tower, Manchester. The rest of the tower is being bought by other property funds managed by Schroders. City Tower has over 600,000 sq ft of offices, retail and leisure space. The price is equivalent to an initial yield of 7%.
Schroder Real Estate says it is looking at other acquisitions.
