Triple Point Social Housing REIT’s portfolio hit £323.5m in its first full-year results after its IPO.
The social housing provider saw portfolio value soar, after a series of acquisitions on top of valuation increases.
Triple Point reported a 6.89% uplift against invested funds of £302.6m. Its NAV per share increased by 2.79%.
Its assets are fully occupied, driving an annual rental income of £17.4m, with a yield of 5.25%.
Triple Point completed two equity raises totalling £155.7m and two debt facilities with combined finance of £138.5m.
Chairman Christopher Phillips said: “Using these funds we continued our strategy of acquiring and managing a portfolio of high-quality new-build or renovated supported housing properties across the UK, working with proven counterparties in areas of known demand.”
During the year the REIT invested £170.8m acquiring 156 buildings with 1,059 units as it sought to diversify its portfolio.
It has added 11 regions and 109 local authorities to its reach.
Phillips added: “The market remains attractive due to the cost-savings supported housing provides local authorities, the higher quality of accommodation provided to residents of supported housing, and the lack of alternative funding sources for the development of new schemes.”
