As for a return on investment if you consider this proposition as “under management” then it is estimated the ROI is about 14.4% if you are an owner operator then the ROI is closer to 19.8%. An owner operator or an astute investor who is prepared to wait and grow the business will benefit greatly with capital growth in the freehold value and profitability.
