Robert Adair sells residential JV
The Glasgow-based group will pay £5.3 million for Adair’s 51 per cent stake in Terrace Hell Residential (THR), with a view to selling off the 47 homes it owns.
Adair will still be entitled to a share of profits from the developments in Scotland, Bristol, Manchester and Minehead, but will also be liable to help meet any losses.

Terrace said the deal had been necessary in order to sell the homes while still satisfying agreements with THR’s lender.
Chief executive Philip Leech said: “Following the sale of the majority of our residential assets to Places for People in February, we are very pleased to have purchased the remaining assets of THR, which facilitates a favourable negotiated settlement with the lender to THR.”
Leech expects the sale of properties to complete within 15 months.
