VIC PROPERTY MARKET REVIEW
MATT O’DEA from FACEY PROPERTY
Market Review – Q1
We hope you have made a great start for 2025. Following a relatively subdued end to 2024, we are seeing improved market confidence across most sectors. There is good appetite from investors and owner occupiers on the proviso that vendors are willing to meet the market and negotiate an outcome. Sellers simply ‘testing the market’ in the hope of achieving an above market outcome are wasting everyone’s time. Buyers generally need some value (now or future uplift) to step forward.
Given the pressure land tax has placed on property owners, it is surprising that we haven’t seen more supply come into the market. The preferred strategy is to factor land tax into future market reviews and hold onto the asset. Ultimately industrial assets remain very hard to replace and remain steadfast investments for the long term. Tenants need to adjust to this new normal, which will probably lead to increases to their goods and services payable by the end user. Base rents have been generally stable however we are seeing some minor reductions for certain properties. This is balanced out by a spike in the cost of outgoings. Tenants are educating themselves on rental rates before renewing leases, and often remain in place once they understand their existing premises is not out of step.
Investment yields remain tighter than forecast, with many deals still being transacted below 5%. This trend is being driven by cash buyers but also the transacting of assets with rent reversionary attributes. Investors with finance obligations are still seeking returns in the 5-6% range.
Please reach out if we can assist further.

NSW PROPERTY MARKET REVIEW
“...The Sydney industrial property market is facing a period of subdued demand....”
Matthew Herrett, Link Property Services
The Sydney industrial property market is facing a period of subdued demand, with both leasing and sales activity experiencing significant headwinds.
While enquiry levels remain steady for smaller industrial spaces, demand for larger facilities (2,500sqm+) has been notably impacted by broader business sentiment. Companies are exercising caution, leading to prolonged transaction timelines and a hesitancy to commit to new leases or purchases.
Leasing Market Trends
Leasing demand across all size brackets has softened, but particularly in the mid-to-large scale industrial sector. Many prospective tenants are “testing the waters” but ultimately opting to renew with their existing landlords rather than making a move. This dynamic is creating challenges for landlords, as limited lease take-up is putting downward pressure on rental values.
As a result, rental incentives are increasing, leading to the emergence of a two-tiered market between institutionally owned assets and privately owned properties. In Western Sydney, for example, comparable industrial properties are showing significant discrepancies in both face rents (a 10-15% variance between private and institutional landlords) and incentive levels, which can range from 8% in private holdings to as high as 15-17.5% in institutionalgrade assets.
The thin leasing market is also contributing to an increasing supply of available stock, further challenging landlords who need to remain competitive to secure deals.
Investment & Owner-Occupier Sentiment
The sales market is also experiencing a slowdown, with owneroccupiers taking a more measured approach to purchasing. While capital remains available for acquisitions, businesses are holding back, citing concerns over macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty. Factors such as a looming federal election, persistent inflationary pressures, and a historically strong labour market are all weighing on confidence. This cautious sentiment is delaying investment decisions and contributing to a sluggish transactional environment.
Strategic Recommendations for Owners & Investors
In this evolving landscape, landlords and vendors must adopt a proactive and creative approach to securing deals. With demand hesitant and transaction timelines extending, any genuine enquiry must be treated as a priority. Strategies to consider include:
• Competitive Incentives: Tailoring lease incentives to attract and retain tenants in a price-sensitive market.
• Flexible Lease Terms: Offering short-term leases or expansion clauses to accommodate business uncertainty.
• Aggressive Negotiation: Engaging decisively with serious buyers or tenants to prevent deals from stalling.
• Market Differentiation: Leveraging asset quality, location advantages, and value-add opportunities to stand out in a competitive marketplace.
While the Sydney industrial market remains fundamentally strong, the current cycle demands a shift in strategy. Those who can adapt quickly and aggressively position their assets will be best placed to capitalise when confidence returns.

QLD PROPERTY MARKET REVIEW
JOHN ANDREW from FAL PROPERTY GROUP
Brisbane’s industrial market is experiencing a rise in vacancy rates, signaling a rebalancing of supply and demand after a period of record-low vacancies. This shift is driven by larger third-party logistics companies adjusting their distribution networks in response to normalized e-commerce demand, with the Southside seeing the highest vacancy levels due to large-format speculative projects. As the market undergoes this transition, stakeholders should approach the coming year with cautious optimism, staying informed and adaptable to navigate the evolving landscape successfully.
Leasing Rates
Leasing activity has remained robust, with gross take-up levels across Australia holding steady. However, the Brisbane southside market has seen a stabilization in prime net face rents, and we’re not seeing rental growth currently. This plateau follows a deceleration observed earlier in the year, marking a departure from the rapid rental growth experienced in previous years. Prime rents on the southside are currently averaging $155-160/sqm for >2,000sqm and $165-175/sqm <2,000sqm.
Incentive Levels
Incentive levels have shown signs of stabilization after a period of increase. Throughout 2024, incentives had risen, effectively doubling in some submarkets since the year before. However more recently, most markets, including Brisbane’s southside, reported no further changes in average incentives. This stabilization is expected to bolster investor confidence and help landlords maintain competitive lease terms.
Sale Rates per Square Meter
The industrial property market has seen a shift in sale rates per square meter. The overall market has experienced a rebalancing, with rental growth halting in major industrial markets, including Brisbane’s southside. This stabilization suggests that sale rates per square meter may also be experiencing a period of adjustment following previous growth.
Sale Yields
Investment volumes in the industrial sector have shown resilience, with a notable increase in activity. In the third quarter of 2024, industrial investments over $10 million reached approximately $2.5 billion, reflecting a strong appetite among investors. This surge in investment activity suggests that sale yields have remained attractive, maintaining investor interest in the market. Yields have remained steady at 5.75%–6.5% for prime-grade assets, with signs of tightening expected as interest rate cuts are anticipated in 2025. Investor sentiment has improved, with institutional buyers increasing their market share in the second half of last year.
Projections for the Next 12 Months
The Brisbane southside industrial property market is expected to stabilize, with vacancy rates holding steady. Leasing rates may see modest growth in areas with low supply, while incentives stabilize. Sale rates per square meter could gradually rise, driven by infrastructure projects and demand. We also expect investors’ appetite to remain strong, especially if further interest rate cuts occur.
“As the market undergoes this transition, stakeholders should approach the coming year with cautious optimism...”

WA PROPERTY MARKET REVIEW
DAVID LAMB from MLV REAL ESTATE
Western Australia has again topped CommSec’s State of States for the December quarter, leading the nation in five of the eight economic indicators. WA ranked first in retail spending, relative unemployment, housing finance and dwelling starts, underpinned by the highest relative population growth.
The Industrial market continues to perform strongly, with rental and capital growth within this sector outpacing the office and retail sectors. There continues to be a shortage of industrial accommodation (both for lease and sale) within the core and secondary markets, particularly for properties with lot sizes in excess of 4,000sqm. Transport, Logistics and Manufacturing facilities are still keenly sought.
The continued shortage of supply of quality industrial accommodation is having an upward influence on rents, particularly within the “core” industrial precincts. The slight softening of yields over the past 6 months is largely attributable to rental growth, with capital values holding steady.
With the recent easing of the cash rate by the RBA, the likelihood of improving affordability will likely strengthen demand further, particularly from the owner occupier sector. Investor demand, which includes a significant amount of enquiry from interstate, remains strong, however the level of transactional activity is being stymied by the low number of investment grade assets being put to market.
Looking forward, we anticipate some easing in construction costs and finance costs will improve the feasibility of new projects. Given the pent-up demand that exists, upward pressure on capital values and rents is expected to continue in the short to medium term.
“With the recent easing of the cash rate by the RBA, the likelihood of improving affordability will likely strengthen”.
