The Board of Directors of Alternative Income REIT PLC (ticker: AIRE), the owner of a diversified portfolio of UK commercial property assets predominantly let on long leases with index-linked reviews, is pleased to announce that it has completed the sale of the Applegreen Petrol Filling Station, Crawley Avenue, Crawley, for a total consideration of £4,500,000 to Rontec Properties No 7 Limited, who is part of the same group as the current occupier. The sale represents:

·      a 17.8% premium on original purchase price;

·      a £500,000 premium on the property's book value at 30 June 2025; and
