The launch of new estates like Aura in Caloundra and Corporate Park East, Caboolture as well as the continued expansion of Brendale, will provide some relief but we expect demand to continue
As a child of the Sunshine Coast and now a father myself, it is the diverse education and employment opportunities available to the younger generation that I believe will have the greatest long-term impact.

If the first quarter of 2019 is any indication, the Northern Corridor remains well positioned to capitalise on the key sectors of the market currently performing well. But this growth will not be without its frustration. Finance is proving to be a significant hurdle and this is particularly true for owner occupiers. Lending criteria is tightening and typical approval times are blowing out beyond 45 days as the number of “hoops” being imposed by financiers increases. Frustration is also coming in the form of stock shortages for functional industrial buildings across almost all suburbs. But as they say in golf “Every shot makes someone smile”. . . The result of these two issues has been an uplift in leasing demand and a willingness of tenants (all be it begrudgingly) to commit to off-plan leases for yet to be constructed buildings. Rumours of a further interest rate cut has investors scrambling to find a return on their money, providing a strengthening market for these newly constructed investments with or without tenants. While an extended Easter break and an election provide excuses for those without the true need for action to delay decisions, we are seeing enough demand across most sectors that any second quarter dip will quickly be corrected through the traditionally strong third quarter.
Infrastructure spend continues to be a major driver of commercial activity across the Norther Corridor. Our team has been working closely to combine high level research with agent feedback from the front line to explore just how significant these projects are for business and the results have been very interesting. Business confidence off the back of several solid years is seeing the absorption of office space improving. Minimal built form industrial stock has resulted in businesses turning to vacant land to design and construct their facilities to meet demand. Neighbourhood shopping centre vacancies across the Sunshine Coast in particular are at record lows, bucking the trend of softening retail across the country. Assuming no major world events, all lead indicators have us predicting a relatively stable and prosperous two years across the Northern Corridor. The crystal ball starts to get foggy after 2020, when major infrastructure projects are scheduled to be complete. It will be at this time that the strength of the market will be dictated by the success of our local and state governments to attract the major businesses that can benefit from this new infrastructure.

YOUR AREA UPDATE Stock levels have tightened again over the first quarter of 2019 across most North Brisbane market sectors. In spite of the strong performance of the area, agents are reporting a level of anxiety among industrial business owners that is combining with low stock availability to cause a larger than average gap between enquiry levels and actual deals transacted. In spite of this fear, there are still enough businesses backing their medium term success and expanding into new properties.
Investor demand is strengthening further with rumours of another interest rate cut before year’s end. It has been interesting to note that the same neighbourhood retail centres mentioned previously are now a sought-after flavour for investors as well. Now could be the time for those owners with fresh leases and a memory of recent vacancy troubles to package up and offer their property to the waiting masses of those hunting for a return on their money.
The industrial markets of Geebung, Banyo, Northgate and Virginia are all experiencing strong enquiry for properties under 800m2. Much of this is being driven by the construction and trade services industries, with the trend continuing of home based “tradie” contractors taking on additional staff and equipment that necessitates a transition into commercial premises. Lack of land through these precincts has led to a flow of larger operators moving into purpose built facilities in Brendale, which has freed up some larger options.
Easter is traditionally a high enquiry and internet traffic period, so owners with vacancies should talk with their agents to ensure they are well positioned and that properties are looking their best.
Secondary strip retail has been the surprise stand out performer across North Brisbane for the last six months. The traditional hubs of Chermside and Kedron have performed well, but so have the small neighbourhood retail and convenience centres across the region. An even mix of established businesses and start-ups have taken up space in a market segment that has struggled for years. Closer analysis of this demand shows no one category is responsible for the activity, with fast food, hair & beauty, pets, personal services, specialty and convenience retail all represented. Where retail has excelled, office has struggled across the fringe market. Some demand still remains for sub 150m2 tenancies, but larger footprint office space of 200m2+ are struggling to attract interest. This is especially true for the B and C grade space. We expect this to improve in the medium term as connectivity and staff amenity overtake a CBD post code as desirable attributes, but in the meantime owners should look to meet the market on shorter term leases or refurbish to outshine the competition.

Retail Shop Leases Recent changes to the Retail Shop Leases Amendment Act 2016 has the potential to impact property owners of what would traditionally be considered industrial units, exempt from the additional obligation and expense of the Act. New definitions of what constitutes a Retail Shop now includes any business interacting face to face with customers. What this means for industrial property owners is the traditional Commercial Tenancy Agreement (CTA) used by many owners and agents will no longer provide certainty of tenure and could even see the owner liable for damages, if used in the wrong scenarios. Until the dust settles on this new legislation and the precedents are set in stone, the safest course of action is to seek advice from your solicitor or call our property management team and talk through the implications for your property.
So what does a Retail Shop Lease (RSL) mean for owners? The key differences are as follows:
• RSL preparation costs cannot be passed on to the tenant
• Land tax and sinking fund levies are not recoverable outgoings under an RSL
• Detailed outgoings must be disclosed atleast 7 days prior to signing
• Outgoings must be audited annually for net leases
• Leases must be registered within 3 months of signing by the tenant
