A potential tenant company has agreed to occupy and rent out the property six months after the date of purchase. The lease agreement states that the company will rent the office block for 15 years and will then purchase the property at the end of the rental period for £28 million. It is further agreed that rents will be paid quarterly in arrears and will be increased every 3 years at the rate of 3.5% per annum compound. The initial rent has been set at £2.7 million per annum with the first rental payment is due exactly three months following the date of occupation. Calculate the net present value of the profit from this investment assuming that the developer earns a rate of return of 9% per annum effective.
