Commenting on the sale, Robert Stanley-Turner from Box Commercial Estate Agents said, ‘Office parks tick a lot of the boxes for tenants: a workforce on the doorstep and lots of cost-effective parking. Anyone who drives understands the congestion of our road network, so companies prize locations where their staff can live close and park on the premises.’
Melbourne-based Box Commercial consults to funds managers across Australia, monitors sales and trends in group investments and refers individual investors to investor groups.
Mr Stanley-Turner also said that North Lakes has excellent road links and the commercial buildings are new and frequently purpose-built. This means they come with maximum depreciation and associated tax advantages, long WALEs, and the capital growth potential of high-growth urban corridors.
‘Land between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast is filling up fast: Moreton Bay Regional Council, where West Lakes is situated, recorded the biggest regional migration inflow in Australia in 2014/15,’ Mr Stanley-Turner said. ‘And it’s continuing to boom.’
