“Whilst there are many offerings in Anderbolt for industrial space and development there are few such properties that have such a diverse offering in one facility,” says Aucor Property’s Warren Aronson. “Further, the buildings on the property are all currently tenanted and the majority of the tenants are on month-to-month leases.” Mr Aronson says there has been substantial interest and demand from a range of buyers wanting to invest in the Anderbolt area as its popularity continues to grow due to its convenient positioning — being near the major highways and the airport as well as its growth as an industrial hub over the years.
