Home REIT plc

("Home REIT" or the "Company")

Property Sales

The Company announces that at a series of public auctions held over the last three days, the Company has exchanged on the sale of a further 226 properties (the "Sale Properties"). Gross proceeds for the sales were £26.5m, representing c.9% of the Company's portfolio by value (based on JLL's August 2023 draft valuation). The gross proceeds from the Sale Properties are 8.1% below the draft August 2023 values. The majority of the properties sold are below portfolio average lot size which may cause a greater percentage variation when comparing sale price to the August draft valuation.

Since August 2023, the Company has completed on the sale of 914 properties and exchanged on a further 287 properties. The gross proceeds from properties sold and exchanged totals £163.1m, which in aggregate is in line with the August 2023 draft valuation.

Sale proceeds will be used to reduce borrowings and provide working capital.
