BHP expand presence at
Aspen Parks
18
Mar 2009
Aspen
Group is pleased to announce the recommitment by BHP
Billiton to remain a long term tenant at Aspen Parks
Property Fund’s Cooke Point Holiday Park in Port Hedland,
WA.
Under the new agreement, BHP has committed to a two year
lease over 40 cabins, expiring in December 2010. The new
agreement replaces BHP’s previous 30 cabin lease which
expired in December 2008.
This agreement represents a significant and consistent
source of revenue for the Fund and will generate $6.1
million over the term of the lease. This represents an
increase in the Fund’s secure rental stream of $1.25 million
per annum and a 28% increase in average weekly rental rate.
This expanded commitment by BHP indicates that there is
still significant demand for resource related accommodation
in the north west of Western Australia, despite recent
cut-backs elsewhere in the country.
Aspen Parks’ position as a preferred accommodation supplier
to BHP Billiton, together with the Fund’s well located
properties, continue to underpin demand for our flexible
accommodation options
