Analysis of the income yields generated from these properties has shown an increased retum from the redevelopments, as well as an increased capital valuè for the underlying properties. The Trust has clearly recognised the risk to tts grant making potential.. from the difficulty in letting some of the property thèt Used to be attractive for business use but is no longer and the f311 in rents from propertythat can still be let for commercial and business use. The Property Committee and the Trust a5 a whole are continuing to address this by a strategy of changing use of buildings and re-letting for residential occupation.
