Property consultancy brokers duo of deals in West Yorkshire 'industrial hotspot'

A Leeds-based property consultancy has brokered two industrial property deals on the M62 corridor in West Yorkshire.

Dove Haigh Phillips (DHP) has advised on the sale of a 50,727 sq ft space in Elland, as well as the lease of a 60,000 sq ft unit in Brighouse.

DHP supported mechanical engineer Boxford with the sale of Boxford House to a Jersey-based investor for a multi-million pound sum.

In addition, the property specialist facilitated the lease of Halco Brighouse’s headquarters at Armytage Road to emergency vehicle specialist Venari Group.

DHP partner Mike Haigh commented: “This was a notable West Yorkshire double for us. Not only did we sell Boxford House on behalf of mechanical engineers Boxford, but we represented tool manufacturer Halco Brighouse on the transfer on their lease at Armytage Road.

“Following on from these deals, we then acquired smaller premises for both Halco Brighouse and Boxford in West Yorkshire. These deals suited all parties perfectly, reflecting the confidence in the industrial property sector in West Yorkshire, as well as in the region’s economy.

He added: “These deals also underline that the M62 corridor is now one of the hotspots for industrial property in West Yorkshire, providing swift access to both the East Coast and the West Coast ports, as well as linking in to the UK’s superb motorway network.”
