CHANGING USE, NOT JUST NEW BUILDS

In Narre Warren, Berwick and Pakenham, a lot of the activity at the moment isn’t coming from brand new developments. It’s coming from people looking at existing properties differently.

A common one is houses along main roads being fully converted into medical or consulting spaces. If the property has good exposure, access and land for car parking, it tends to suit allied health, NDIS operators and medical and specialist practices really well.

In a lot of cases, the rental return ends up stronger than leaving it as a standard residential investment What’s also driving this is convenience. These types of services want to be embedded within the community they support, not tucked away in commercial pockets

Established residential areas with strong traffic flow and visibility are ticking a lot of boxes, particularly as demand for health and support services continues to grow.

On the industrial side, there’s also been a shift. Larger factories are being used for more retail-style businesses, especially where tenants need space. Bulky goods, trade-related operators and showroom users are all looking for size, which is something traditional retail strips just don’t offer

There’s also a cost factor at play here

Prime retail is expensive and increasingly competitive, while industrial spaces can offer better value per square metre.

For many businesses, especially those that don’t rely purely on foot traffic, that trade-off makes a lot of sense.

A lot of this comes back to growth in the area. The population through Casey and Cardinia keeps pushing out, and with that comes demand for services and space. At the same time, rising costs mean businesses are getting more flexible with where and how they operate.

Planning overlays and council requirements still need to be considered, of course, but where there’s alignment, these conversions can unlock significant value. It’s not always a quick win, but it can be a very strategic one.

For owners, it’s a reminder to look at what the property could be, not just what it is today. A well-located site might be better suited to a completely different use.

For tenants, it’s about thinking outside the box a bit. The right space might not be in a retail strip or a standard office, but it can still work just as well, if not better.
