Gregory Preston AM and Benjamin Martin-Henry discuss the current state-of-play in property, at a time where the greatest certainty is change.
Australian commercial real estate markets are showing signs of positive change, according to Benjamin Martin-Henry, Head of Private Asset Research Pacific at MSCI.
Martin-Henry was participating in a wide-ranging property discussion with our Chairman & Managing Director Gregory Preston AM, as part of the PFA Podcast series.
- What do the latest results say about the current cycle for Australian commercial real estate – have values bottomed across all asset classes?
- What impact are rate cuts having thus far?
- Does Australia’s reputation as a global investment haven mitigate risks posed by geopolitical uncertainty?
- How are investors weighing forward income risk against capital market risks such as cap rates and discount rates across different real estate sectors?
- What is the latest on core asset classes including office, industrial, and retail property?
- Are current cap rate and discount rate assumptions for data centres sustainable, or could long-term valuation volatility emerge due to evolving user needs?
- Discussion of the recent Parliamentary Joint Committee decision on the wholesale investor test thresholds.
