DETAILED PLANNING CONSENT OBTAINED

 

Real Estate Investors plc (AIM:RLE), the West Midlands based property group, announces that, yesterday, it  received detailed planning consent for eight three bedroom semi detached homes at  their recently acquired former public house, Hill Tavern, Dudley, West Midlands.

 

This now takes REI's total residential plots  to over 40 from former public houses, development sites acquired.

 

Commenting on the approval, Paul Bassi, Chief Executive of REI, said, "We will continue to acquire  opportunistic residential sites that we believe represent real value to REI, giving us the potential to either resell for healthy profits or develop the sites for retention, providing REI with favourable yields and rental."
