DEVELOPER'S JOURNEY Supplied by

Since establishing the privately owned group in 1996, Crown Group has evolved from a boutique operation to an enterprise with an established portfolio of projects across Australia and Indonesia in its pipeline worth $5 billion.

The founder and chief executive, who has plans to take Crown Group public in 2021 with a float of no less than $1 billion, says he suffered from thoughts of not being good enough on his path to becoming a major property player.

But it was humble beginnings for Sunito, as he grew up in what he describes as “the jungles of Indonesia,” a small town of Pangkalan Bun in East Kalimantan.

When the crocodile infested river near his childhood home would rise, often flooding his house, Sunito says those were the times he’d take advantage of high tides and go swimming. “If you survived that, you were really making it,” Sunito said.

THE FIRST 5 YEARS OF STARTING CROWN “I DOUBTED”

Sunito easily commands the room with an air of confidence, but on seeing him most wouldn't guess he's wrestled with low self esteem.

“When I grew up I had a lot of setbacks and failures,” he said. “I thought I was nobody. A lot of my self-talk was, ‘why was I born so stupid? “And I used to often talk myself into defeat,” Sunito told The Urban Developer.

Sunito says he especially struggled when he arrived in Australia to complete his studies in architecture in the early nineties, the cultural differences combined with the philosophical language of the degree almost eluding him.

“I nearly failed my first year. But i had a great teacher who became a mentor to me. I was, and still am, always hungry to learn.” It’s this awareness of his personal struggle Sunito brings to his business.

“Often leaders think they have to know it all,” he says. “But don't be afraid to say you don't know.” And even after Crown Group’s 22 years of business and billions of dollars worth of property development, Sunito says self doubt doesn't go away.

“I feel like giving up every development launch that we have,” he says. “Even in starting Crown Group, for the first five years I doubted if it would work.”

Following his studies, Sunito originally started his own construction company building residential homes which he says

gave him the foundation to get into developing.

The site was a parcel of land in Bondi Junction on Spring Street secured for $5 million that would kick start the company.

After borrowing a large sum of money from his Dad, and contacting two of his friends to secure the deal, Crown Group was officially created, along with a 10-storey development they later sold for $28 million.

“I thought developing would be something high risk, but also high return and I knew that’s where I wanted to be,” Sunito said. “Those early years I was only paying myself $20,000 a year... there were a lot of hard times.”

Some 20 years later, Sunito says Crown Group has around 200 people running the operation.

A man with a penchant for quotes and personal affirmations, Sunito says “you don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.”

Mindful of his start in life, Sunito’s developments are informed by his upbringing in tropical East Kalimantan. “Jungle and water, these elements of nature inform my design,” Sunito says. “I don’t try to be something I’m not.”

Sunito also says he was conscious of keeping the media at arms length until Crown Group really knew its brand. “I stayed out of the media for the first eight

years of our business… until we really knew who we were, our colour, and our unique identity,” he says.

In launching the $120 million Greensquare Infinity development Sunito said the group sold $385 million in just five hours, describing the sale frenzy “as a fruit market”.

“But in the past, it took me years just to sell a $30 million job. Because we had no brand,” he said. “So the reality of business is, it takes time. You almost need to move from a Hyundai, to a Toyota, to a Lexus. “Even though I had the goal to produce the best of the best in development, the reality was as a company we moved very slowly.”

AGAINST THE GRAIN In 1998 Sunito said the Asian financial crisis hit, and then in 2008 the global financial hit, but weathering the tough

times is what sets you apart. “Everybody tells you, 'don’t do anything in these times'. But that’s when you do deals,” he says. “We made a fortune, because in tough times you can buy a site and there’s no competition.”

It was also during the GFC, Sunito discovered the Blue Ocean Strategy a book he says "shifted his perception" as a developer. He attributes this book as a turning point for Crown Group, as it gave way to a new focus on what he describes as “urban resort” developments.

With this focus he approaches his projects from three areas. The building has got to be an architecturally iconic building.

The foyer has got to be a five-star resort foyer. And the third thing, the landscape has got to be like an urban resort. “From 2007 to 2009, our company expanded from a team of 25 people to more than 100,” Sunito said. “And that was during the downturn.”

Looking ahead, Sunito has expansion plans for a 500 apartment project in downtown Los Angeles in the US, along with a colossal 3000-5000 apartment waterfront development in Jakarta.

And while the Australian market is well

into its current trough, Sunito says he’s been around long enough to know the market is a cyclical one. And like a career, or a life well lived, it’s filled with highs and lows.

“Every success is often followed by failure,” Sunito says. “I really like that quote by Bill Gates” he adds, “success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose. “As much as I’m optimistic, I’m optimistically cautious,” he added.

FIVE AFFORDABLE HOUS THAT ARE TIPPED TO RIS

Supplied by

Analysis by sellorhold.com.au has identified key suburbs with median prices around the $500,000 mark forecast to grow in value come 2022, identifying markets such as Karabar in New South Wales Queanbeyan region which it expects to rise by 28.8 per cent across the three year period.

While the $500,000 benchmark price range eliminated Sydney and Melbourne offerings from the final list, the top performing suburbs were identified in New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia.

Sellorhold.com.au head of research Jeremy Sheppard says the markets making the top five list are forecast to grow in value by up to $150,000 across the next three years.

Sheppard says the new proptech platform enables property owners to determine whether they should sell or hold their assets based on an algorithm that calculates potential capital growth in 6000 markets across Australia.

Karabar, roughly 18 kilometres from Canberra CBD, in the Queanbeyan region of New South Wales is forecast as the number one house market for this price bracket according to the proptech analysis.

With proximity to Canberra, Karabar benefits from its location near the nation's capital, considered a commuter region for public servants.

Recent Corelogic data shows housing values were down across six of the eight capital cities, with the exception of Canberra and Hobart values according to the March Index.

Second spot went to Middle Ridge in Toowoomba. The analysis forecasts its median house price will increase by up to 24 per cent, or $125,000, in the next three years.

“Middle Ridge is one of Toowoomba’s premier suburbs and is located in a region with a strong local economy as well as a number of large infrastructure projects, including the Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport, which was Australia’s first privately funded major airport,” Sheppard said.

While South Australia's Seaton in Adelaide took the third spot.

Seaton has proximity to both the beach and city, with the research showing its median house price is forecast to grow by around $119,000 in the next three years.

The research also identified the bottom five national locations where prices are expected to stagnate in the same three year period.

These suburbs called the Northern Territory, Western Australia and Queensland home.

Darwin's property market peaked in late 2010 and is still suffering from the end of the mining boom. Home to suburb Rosebery which tops the list as likely to record a price fall of about $3,150 over the three year period to 2022.

Sheppard said the bottom performing suburbs were all located in markets that had struggled in recent years, with the exception of Bahrs Scrub in Greater Brisbane's Logan region.

“Which is partly due to there being ample land available for new supply in that market,” Sheppard said.

Besgate sold two development sites it acquired in 2013, then obtained permits to redevelop, in the Melbourne CBD: 640 Bourke Street traded to Far East Consortium as an apartment play for $90 million – a rise on the $23.9 million Besgate paid, while 140-146 King Street is exchanging for about $29 million. The latter site, which cost Besgate $10 million, is being acquired by Harry Triguboff AO marking his first Melbourne investment after more than 50 years in the construction industry.

It will make way for a Meriton Suites serviced accommodation complex.

In the suburbs, Dahua Group is paying $140 million for a 98.4 hectare site at 688 Aviation Road, Point Cook. Dahua paid $52 million for the neighbouring 96 hectare block at 640 Aviation Road in 2016.

Frasers Property Australia is outlaying about $80 million for a 41.3 hectare industrial development site in Dandenong South. The acquisition follows its $40 million acquisition of a 63.4 hectare block in the city’s Epping late last year – where it is also proposing an industrial park.

CBD investments with long-term development potential also found buyers last month. Boston-based AEW Capital Management stumped up some $200 million for a 22-storey office on a corner site at 31 Queen Street. Swinburne University meanwhile is paying about $45 million for the historic seven-storey Invicta House at 226-232 Flinders Lane.

Poly Australia is now a true eastern seaboard developer after paying $35.25 million for its first Queensland site - a 6.2 hectare residential building block on the corner of Lamington and Mordant streets, Ascot, near the Doomben Racecourse.

The site is seven kilometres north-east of the Brisbane CBD. Poly Australia has been active in New South Wales and Victoria since 2015.

Some significant investment property deals were also sealed in the sunshine state last month.

In the Brisbane CBD, Perri Projects and AMB Capital Partners offloaded a 16-storey office at 179 North Quay for $52.6 million to an offshore party. A little closer to the City Botanic Gardens, ARA Asset Management paid Canada’s Quadra Pacific $96.5 million for a 15-level commercial building at 133 Mary Street.

Five kilometres west of the city, in St Lucia, the University of Queensland outlaid $19 million for a five-storey office until January occupied by Allianz Global Alliance. The college needs the additional space ahead of a refurbishment of its 114-hectare campus, nearby, which is expected to take about five years to complete.

Yuhu Group finally settled on the $380 million purchase of the Bakehouse Quarter site in North Strathfield. It bought the property from BlackWall in mid-2017 then exercised extension options to finalise the purchase - until last month.

The six-hectare property, including office and retail investments built around the refurbished Arnott’s biscuits factory, has long-term potential to be replaced with a new township with an end value of about $1 billion.

Charter Hall Retail REIT paid $142 million for the Rockdale Plaza. The shopping centre investment includes 21,000 square metres of lettable area and 907 car parks.

In the east, philanthropist Tanya Nelson Carnegie sold the former Jackie’s Restaurant & Bar site, overlooking Bondi Beach, for almost $9.7 million. Now configured as two shops and three upstairs apartments, agents were quoting a guide price of $9.2 million for 132 Warners Avenue. It sold prior to auction.

Collette Dinnigan offloaded her former company’s headquarters in Surry Hills for $6 million. The fashion designer paid $1.23 million for the 22-24 Hutchinson Street warehouse in 1998.

Another high-profile vendor, movie director George Miller AO, also signed a property deal – selling the historic Metro theatre in Potts Point to ASX-listed Abacus Property Group for $19.8 million.

Meanwhile building manufacturing CSR Limited traded an Ingleburn factory leased to Veridian Glass to Fife Capital for $66.3 million. Coincidentally a Melbourne warehouse owner-occupied by Viridian Glass was listed for sale last month with a price guide of about $100 million.

In the state’s Central Coast, media industry businessman John Singleton spent close to $25 million for the Elanora Hotel, at 41 Victoria Street, East Gosford.

A 200,000 hectare agricultural site in Western Australia’s wheatbelt region sold for a speculated price of between $60 million and $70 million. Known as the Baladjie aggregation, the deal needed to be approved by the Foreign Investment Review Board. The Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC) is the buyer. The vendor was the Nicoletti family, of grain farming fame.

Twenty five dwellings and 40,000 merino sheep formed part of the deal which also includes 76,000 hectares of freehold cropping land, the balance held on a leasehold basis. It is SALIC’s first Australian acquisition.

ASX-listed Cedar Woods Properties Limited, meanwhile, is paying private landholders including members of the Kailis family $28.25 million for a Perth landholding. The 20.2 hectare block in Brabham has the potential to be subdivided into about 380 residential lots. It lies adjacent to Cedar Woods’ Ariella housing estate the developer’s best-selling project out of 34 it controls nationally.

A fully-leased Wayside office sold for just over $16 million late last month – a deal which reflects a 6.9 per cent passing yield. The investment, 67 Greenhill Road, includes 3,308sqm of area over three levels and 120 car parks. With naming rights to one of the tenants, AMP Advice, it is rented to multiple occupiers.

Meanwhile a small Adelaide CBD office at 453 Morphett Street has netted an impressive price, trading for between $1.2 million and $1.3 million on the last day of April. The two-storey building, with 439sqm of lettable area, sits on a 253sqm plot between Whitmore Square and South Terrace. Agents marketed the attractive site to investors, owner-occupiers and developers.

RESIDENTS The ABS estimated residential population for South Melbourne for 2019 is 10,535; an increase of 13.1% from the 2011 census. While the median age has reduced by just one year to 36 (VIC; 37 – AUS; 38), the most significant age bracket (accounting for 24.4%) exists with the 25-35 yearold bracket.

When comparing census statistics from 2011 and 2016, there is a noticeable shift away from dwellings with three household members in favour of one-bedroom domiciles, which have absorbed an extra 5.5% of the private dwelling share.

56.5% of residents in South Melbourne are renting (an increase of 3.5%), which is significantly higher than the state average of 28.7%.

CULTURE

SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS

Clarendon Street is the heart of the suburb, but there is still much to be found on the intersecting streets that make walking throughout South Melbourne an enjoyable experience. The well renowned South Melbourne Market, with its high-quality produce, independent craft and accessory retailers and live music, delivers a lively atmosphere that entices many visitors from near and far.

With many primary producers in the area, South Melbourne belies its proximity to the city and feels more like a quaint village than a fast-paced urban outfit. Whether it’s high-end restaurants, authentic local pubs, gorgeous parks and architecture, whisky, beer, wine or coffee, South Melbourne provides significant justification for the pride that locals hold for their suburb.

Lenny (161 Buckhurst Street): This site was the former head office of Development Ready. Zoned Capital City 1 it has an approved planning permit for 5 luxury full-floor apartments above a ground floor café over 6 levels in total.

Units: The current median price of units $570K. Current weekly median advertised rent is $510.

SUBURB REPORT: SOUTH MELBOURNE

Offering residents a village atmosphere that doesn’t sacrifice proximity to the beach or city, it’s easy to understand why South Melbourne is one of the state capital’s most highly sought-after residential destinations. The well-renowned market, leafy streets, Victorian-era architecture and multitude of eateries and bars provide significant appeal, keeping locals from leaving and visitors coming back.

TIM GURNER'S SAINT MORITZ PENTHOUSES FETCH $78 MILLION IN SALES

Gurner proves there’s still strong demand for high-end offerings in the luxury residential sector of the market.

The sales follow the record-breaking $30 million penthouse sale to ex-Domain boss Antony Catalano who emerged as the buyer of the full-floor seven-bedroom residence in February, known as Melbourne’s most expensive apartment.

Gurner said Melbourne’s wealthy emerged as buyers of the multi-million-dollar properties, rumoured to include cricketer Shane Warne as one of the buyers, as he described the appetite for penthouse offerings as “insatiable”.

“Within 36 hours we had multiple parties bidding on five of the penthouses,” Gurner said. To kick off construction, which is earmarked for later this year, the developer needs to sell approximately 60 per cent ($330-million) of apartments in the $550 million development to unlock the project’s finance. Something Gurner

Supplied by

is confident about, with the project set to officially launch in the coming months.

“We have been blown away by the response to our limited penthouse collection release,” Gurner said. In 36 hours, two penthouses sold for $19 million, along with two penthouses priced between $15.5 -$17 million, and one sale for $9 million.

“Our strategy for releasing the penthouse collection first was all about providing our buyers with the opportunity to custom design their residence from the ground up, so the remaining floorplates will be designed around these penthouse offerings,” Gurner said. “We quietly approached a number of Melbourne identities who fit the profile of this sort of residence, and within a matter of weeks, we had dozens of interested parties all

vying for one of the five penthouses.”

Penthouse features include internal pools that submerge into the rooms below, private steam rooms, private art gallery spaces, solid marble joinery and bench-tops, floating marble fireplaces and Nero Marquina bathtubs which offer 180-degree water views of the St Kilda waterfront location.

The 6,000sqm St Kilda site, located at 14-16 The Esplanade, is owned by Sydney property developer Greg Shand, who partnered with Gurner to replace the existing Novotel Hotel. Plans will see it transformed into three 8-storey towers.

When complete, the Saint Moritz development will offer 120 residences offering a mix of two, three four, five and six bedroom dwellings, with prices ranging from $1.4 million to $30 million-plus.

Melbourne Development Site Market: What We're Seeing in 2019

The Melbourne development site market is going through a period of transition. The depth of international apartment buyers, fewer tax incentives for investors and uncertainty regarding access to finance, from the apartment buyers and developers alike, have all resulted in a slowing down of acquisition and delivery.

lack of reliance on pre-sales, have gained competitive advantage in the market and have been active in acquiring sites that are permit approved for residential and converting the end use.

taxation policy (stamp duty and land tax) if an ALP Federal Government is elected.

WESTPAC OPENING UP TO FOREIGN APARTMENT BUYERS

This does, however, create excellent buying opportunity for those with healthy balance sheets and capital capacity. We are actively receiving enquiry from many of Melbourne’s largest developers, as well as generational high net investors/developers – all of whom have made it clear that 2019 is a year in which they want to be buying multiple development sites.

Very recently, Westpac Banking Group announced it will commence funding offshore pre-sale buyers in the major Asian markets – excluding China. This is an exciting step forward for the industry, with many major residential projects reliant on offshore pre-sales to make them viable.

Irrespective of the above market factors, two reoccurring themes that we predict will drive confidence in the market are population growth and the obvious shortage of housing stock off the back of rising rents and tight vacancy.

NON-TRADITIONAL BUYER PROFILES The buyer profile for a development site has become much broader and more diverse.

Only 12 months ago, 99% of enquiry received was from developers looking to undertake a major residential project on any prominent scale listing.

This has now shifted dramatically and, while there are still high numbers of enquiry for residential development, we are actively fielding interest from groups looking to undertake the following development outcomes: • Office or mixed use • Build-to-rent • Hotel • Student accommodation All, bar one, of the major development site sales that have occurred in the Melbourne CBD or immediate fringe this year have been to these buyer profiles.

Far East Consortium is the exception, recently acquiring 640 Bourke Street for $90 million. These groups, given their

Our expectation is that it will take some time to filter into the market, with the other major banks needing to change policy for it to truly gain momentum – particularly NAB and ANZ who already have a strong presence in Asia.

Knowledge of this, and confidence that there will not be a reversion in policy after purchase, will be very important in reinstating a strong desire to buy an Australian apartment product in the Asian markets.

IMPENDING ELECTION The impending federal election on May 18 will impact real estate markets. Proposed changes to negative gearing and capital gains taxation policy by the ALP have received the greatest attention and concern from the industry.

However, there are also some subtle elements to this. The Victorian State Government has put its budget on hold until after the federal election to fully appreciate the likely Federal contribution to major infrastructure spending. The Federal ALP party has promised significantly greater contributions to the state, if elected. Resulting in a potentially more modest state

POPULATION GROWTH & RENTAL RATES

Victorian Treasurer, Tim Pallas, recently advised that state policy is for 70% of population growth to be housed in the Melbourne CBD, inner and middle ring as these are areas that have access to high capacity public transport alignments.

Couple this with vacancy rates at 1.8% for residential accommodation in Metropolitan Melbourne and a 7% growth in residential rents in 2018 and Melbourne is heading towards a period of accommodation under supply.

This will be a major driver in the development sector. With early signs of greater openness for major banks to fund Asian pre-sales, now is the time to buy sites and build a development pipeline, to take advantage of a prosperous market in the not too distant future.

BRISBANE WELCOMES NEW ADDITION TO BUSY HOTEL MARKET

Brisbane has welcomed its newest hotel – the $100 million Art Series-branded the Fantauzzo, at the riverfront Howard Smith Wharves precinct.

The Fantauzzo is the latest addition to a market that was, until recently, known for its paucity of high-end hotels — new additions include Fortitude Valley’s the Calile and the $200 million Westin Brisbane in the CBD. Queensland was Australia’s busiest hotel market in 2018, with $486 million in investment and 1,615 rooms coming on line, according to a recent Colliers hotel report.

The forecast for 2019 is much slower, with just 166 rooms forecast as supply exceeds demand in the short term.

CBRE’s Hayley Mantwell cites the new Brisbane airport runway set to be operational by 2020 and the $160 million cruise ship terminal as drivers of demand.

“Brisbane is expected to benefit over the longer term from new development

Supplied by

and the extensive range of investment projects and initiatives currently under way and planned,” Mantwell said. “CBRE forecasts market room rates to stabilise over the short term, followed by growth as a result of the quality of new product and increased demand from 2020.”

Melbourne photorealist painter Vincent Fantauzzo is the artist behind the eighth hotel in the Art Series, with six of his original works and more than 500 prints adorning the walls of the 6-storey, 166room hotel.

Accor owns the Art Series brand, after acquiring the Mantra Group in a $1.2 billion deal in June 2018. Mantra had snapped up the Australian-owned Art Series brand in 2017 for $52.5 million.

“It’s the first Art Series hotel to open under our management, with guests

visiting Brisbane from other parts of Queensland, interstate and overseas,” Accor Pacific chief operating officer Simon McGrath said. The SJB-designed Art Series hotel welcomed its first guests on Tuesday.

Knight Frank’s latest City Wealth Index takes in the world’s leading cities to provide insights for investors.

Sydney came in at sixth spot for the report's investment category, this section looks at where the wealthy are investing says Knight Frank’s head of residential research Australia Michelle Ciesielski.

“Globally, we assessed data on major property investments – residential and commercial worth US$10 million or more – by private individuals and family offices,” Ciesielski said. The ranking takes into account the volume of investment and diversity measuring the number of different nationalities investing.

Sydney came in 16th place for the lifestyle ranking. Ciesielski said this category draws on key lifestyle decision influencers such as education, security, and luxury

indicators which include the number of five-star hotels and the quantity and quality of restaurants.

“Finally, the wealth category, in which Sydney ranked 27th, uses data from analyst GlobalData WealthInsight to look at current ultra-wealthy populations in each city, as well as analysing recent growth performance,” Ciesielski said.

Sydney’s population of ultra-high-networth individuals, that is someone with a net worth of more than US$30 million excluding their primary residence, is also set to grow.

“The population of UHNWIs in Sydney was estimated at 875 in 2018 and this is projected to grow by 20 per cent over the next five years,” Ciesielski said.

This is in line with the expected 22 per cent increase in the global UHNWI popula-

tion projected for the five years to 2023.

Topping the global chart is London, which now has a population of 4,944 UHNWIs, the largest of any city in the world following a rise of 582 in the last five years.

“Hard Brexit, no Brexit, Brexit-lite: whatever the outcome, London will remain the leading global wealth centre in 2019” Knight Frank’s global head of research Liam Bailey said. “The city sweeps the board in our annual City Wealth Index, pushing its only serious rival New York into second place.”

THE PROPERT Y DE VELOPMENT RE VIE W

Home to one of Perth’s most adored beaches, Scarborough is an attractive and lively coastal suburb around 12km northwest of Perth’s CBD. From sunrise to sunset, this residential hotspot is teeming with people from all over the city, enjoying the active yet laidback scene. Surfers, cyclist and families intermingle at hip cafés, parks, retail strips and (of course) the beach, while the more hedonistic keep the vibe going right into the late night.

RESIDENTS Scarborough’s median age of 34-years has remained consistent from 2011 to 2016, compared to the rest of WA; 36-years and AUS; 38-years. Census data reveals an overall increase in population by 8.4% to 15,467.

Overall 26.5% of the population in Scarborough are between the ages of 25 and 34, and when compared with the rest of the state, there are a lower proportion of people aged above 45. Adding to this, there is a higher proportion of couples without children and young emerging families compared to the rest of WA. CULTURE It’s hard to talk about this suburb without first discussing Scarborough Beach. An abundance of the social activity through-

out the year is centred around its Indian Ocean coastline, as revellers and relaxers enjoy every aspect of its offerings from dawn until dusk.

Inland, families and sports enthusiasts are appeased with a selection of parks and reserves. Additionally, there are two primary schools, a library and a community recreation centre.

The sought-after hillside streets off Scarborough Beach Road offer stunning views amid 60s-era houses, post-war red-brick dwellings, 90s townhouses and recent development projects.

PRICE Houses: Over the past three years, median house prices have remained reasonably steady, decreasing 1.6% to $738,000 amidst a series of minor rises and falls.

However, the number of sales has risen from 153 sales in October 2017 to 206 sales in January 2019. The weekly median advertised rent is currently $500.

Units: Median unit prices have experienced an overall decrease of 5% over the past three years. Similarly to houses, the number of unit sales has seen a consistent increase, albeit not including a rather weak January, with 224 sales in November 2017 and 270 sales in November 2018. The weekly median advertised rent is currently $400.

SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS

The Beach Shack: Developer Norup + Wilson, along with Plus Architecture, are bringing this two building, mid-rise apartment development to Scarborough’s shore (171 West Coast highway). With expected completion in July 2020 the towers will have nine and eleven storeys respectively, offering a total of 99 dwellings.

ASX-LISTED DEVELOPER CEDAR WOODS BUYS $28M SITE

Cedar Woods has sold 50% of its strata units in Melbourne’s west, while snapping up a 20 hectare residential site in an off market deal in Perth.

The Perth land parcel was purchased from private landowners, with payment on deferred terms and settlement scheduled in July this year.

The Brabham property, located in Perth's north-east growth corridor, is zoned urban and is expected to offer up to 380 lots.

Cedar Woods said it is dedicated to growing its portfolio by focusing on three core areas: geography, product type and price point.

Cedar Woods’ Western Australian state manager Ben Rosser said the purchase was consistent with the company’s history of counter-cyclical acquisitions while also capitalising on the new site’s location directly adjacent to the company’s best-selling project “Ariella” (main image).

“The timing of this acquisition is ideal in terms of both the point in the property cycle and in enabling the extension of the highly successful Ariella project, the company’s strongest performing in a national portfolio of 34 developments,” he said.

Rosser said Cedar Woods is actively pursuing well-located sites and the creation of quality development and is “evaluating both land and built-form opportunities across multiple states”.

The company reported a net profit of $30.8m in the first half of the financial year.

In Melbourne, the developer cites strong sales of its 101 Overton Road project demonstrates commercial growth and an increasing white-collar workforce in Melbourne’s west.

Its second strata office in Wiliams

Landing, one of Wyndham’s new employment precincts, has sold more than 50 per cent of units since launching three months ago.

The first Williams Landing strata office building, a five-level-building comprising 47 office suites and a ground floor medical centre at 111 Overton Road, sold out in seven months of launch.

OPINION PIECE: SUSTAINABLE FLOATING CITIES Supplied by

The design, unveiled at the United Nations headquarters last week, could withstand natural disasters like floods, tsunamis, and hurricanes and house up to 10,000 residents.

Today’s diverse urban cities face new and growing threats, from climate change, growing populations, and growing inequality.

But in the round table discussion, convened by UN-Habitat involving marine engineers, scientists, architects and entrepreneurs last week, sustainable floating cities were posed as a solution to such urban challenges.

Oceanix City was unveiled as a connected network of hexagon shaped platforms, anchored to the seafloor.

BIG founding partner Bjarke Ingels said the proposal explores the next “frontier for human settlements” as the project addresses housing shortages and threats from rising sea levels.

Remnants of Kevin Costner's 1995 sci-fi thriller Waterworld aside, the utopian vision would see its residents use 100 per cent renewable energy, eat a plant-based diet grown via ocean farming and use small smart cars to get around.

The island modules can be linked together and scaled up in configurations to form city blocks or entire cities. The city would comprise a cluster of platforms that could each hold around 300 residents. The

clusters would be repeated in multiples of six to form a 12-hectare village, and scaled up with the entire city able to house up to 10,000 people.

“Our approaches to development and environmental sustainability in cities need a serious retooling to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow,” UN deputy secretary-general Amina Mohammed said. “We live in a time when we cannot continue building cities the way New York or Nairobi were built. “We must build cities with solutions for low emission development...

We must build cities for people, not cars.

And we must build cities knowing that they will be on the frontlines of climate related risks, from rising sea levels to storms,” Mohammed said.

“Floating cities can be part of our new arsenal of tools.” The villages would sit in proximity to major coastal cities.

And in the event of a disaster, the platforms could be towed to safer locations.

“Nine out of 10 of the world’s largest cities will be exposed to rising seas by 2050,” Ingels said. “The sea is our fate – it may also be our future.”

THE PROPERT Y DE VELOPMENT RE VIE W

Danish studio Bjarke Ingels Group and non-profit company Oceanix believe a floating city could be the future of sustainable living.

Oceanix City was designed by architect Bjarke Ingels in collaboration with Oceanix.
