"The Board is pleased to have disposed of the majority of the investment property portfolio which crystallises the significant capital growth achieved over the past eight years," he said.

"The attention of the team now turns to the investment properties under construction and the development projects we currently hold and to sourcing further investment opportunities, such as the recent Nottingham acquisition.

"The Group is in a strong position to bring these projects to fruition with cash of £46m available for investment and no debt."
