CONTENTS RENTAL GROWTH TAKES A BREATHER

WHAT’S INSIDE

Looking back over the first six months of 2017, we’ve negotiated many deals at record high rents with low incentives in our B Grade office assets. Commercial buildings that once achieved rates of $750 - $850psm in Q1/2 of 2016 are now achieving $1,000 - $1,100 psm in Q1/2 of 2017. However we’re starting to see a pause in transactions over $1,000psm. In the month of June 2017, we saw tenants starting to look further West or South of Martin Place in order to find better value space under $850psm gross.

FLEXIBLE WORKSPACE

This pause has triggered minor rental reductions, by about 5%, in some of our assets to kick start deals and ensure stock being marketed for lease has minimal downtime between tenants.

Tenants displaced from AMP buildings at 50 Bridge Street and Loftus and Young Street are still scattering through the market trying to find value space. The competition and limited supply is keeping inspection rates high, but actual transactions seem to be taking a lot longer. When this latest wave of displacement tenants settles towards the end of 2017, I believe the rapid rate of rental growth may reach a plateau.

The current shortage of stock on the market means our leasing team are now doing more deals off market.

Transactions are being finalised from a backlog of tenant enquiries and our substantial database, without the need to market space online.

BENT STREET CAN MIKE MCINEARNEY DO NO WRONG?

ONE OF THE NICEST CHEFS IN THE BUSINESS, MIKE HAS TAKEN HIS POLISHED YET HOMELY FOOD FROM THE INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSE SPACE OF KITCHEN BY MIKE IN ROSEBERY TO THE CIT Y, WITH THE OPENING OF NO.1 BENT STREET LAST YEAR - AND THE RESULTS ARE DELECTABLE. He began his career at Sydney’s beloved Rockpool and honed his skills overseas at the Michelin-starred Pied a Terre among others, then went full circle to return to run the Rockpool kitchen. Mike believes in the power of food as medicine and his menu features sustainably and seasonally sourced ingredients, house-baked sourdough, and that seemingly effortless simplicity that comes from a highly skilled chef.

Be sure to try something from the wood-fired oven - smoke delicately flavours the goat’s cheese souffle and ash-cooked eggplant, and the fire works it’s magic on Hapuka fillet and lamb. Or put your faith in Mike and order ‘Mike’s Menu’ ($80pp).

FLEXIBLE WORKSPACE

OPERATORS NOW COMPETING WITH LESSORS

With businesses needing flexibility to scale up and down, a more fluid approach to how a workforce is employed is becoming the norm. From hiring freelancers to complete a project, to bringing on a team of contractors during a busy time or as part of an expansion strategy - businesses are seeking flexible workspace options.

Is this a trend or a permanent change in how we work? And more importantly, can landlords compete with serviced office and coworking office suppliers?

WHEN I SPEAK WITH TENANTS ABOUT WHAT THEY WANT IN AN OFFICE LEASE THE ANSWERS ARE PRETTY CONSISTENT. •

We want fitted space built to a high standard

•

We want to minimise capital costs on fit out and furniture

•

We don’t like the cost and hassle of a make-good

•

We want flexibility to upsize or downsize our space as our business changes

•

We want to minimise the capital tied up in bonds for the lease term

•

We want an office environment or building with like minded people, with business synergies and networking opportunities

•

We want to be in a quality building with good services and high quality End Of Trip facilities

•

We want high speed data.

COMPARE THIS WITH TRADITIONAL OFFICES CURRENTLY FOR LEASE IN SYDNEY CBD. •

Vacant office space for lease with no fitout or furniture

•

The tenant has to fund the fit out cost, which might include a two month fit out period and approximately $700 - $900 psm to fit out

•

The tenant has to undertake a full make good, which might include a one month make good period and a cost of around $150 - $250 psm.

•

The tenant has to lock in a bond of 6 to 12 months rental

•

There’s no flexibility to upsize or downsize without significant fees and time periods associated with subletting, assigning or surrendering a lease.

•

On many leasing deals lease incentives are now sub 15%, meaning a majority of capital costs are now a capital cost to the tenant.

Flexible work space, serviced offices and coworking environments offer tenants everything they want, and more.

Very often flexible work space is being offered at a price lower than direct space due to the bulk buying power and larger lease incentives on long lease terms secured by these larger serviced operators.

WHAT WILL LESSORS NEED TO DO TO ADAPT I believe Lessors will need to compete harder to provide more flexible solutions in order to capture this continuing trend. Key factors lessors need to focus on: •

Fitted and furnished work spaces with fitouts installed by the Lessor

•

Considering shorter term leases at a price differential to longer leases

•

Provision of shared meeting rooms and facilities for tenants to use

•

Increased flexibility built into leases to allow tenants upsizing and downsizing

•

Flexibility on bonds where there is no upfront liability to the Lessor on a lease

•

Sensible and simple solutions on make goods to existing fit outs

•

Creating a business networking environment within the building

Flexible work spaces are increasing their market share in Sydney CBD and their sweet spot is targeting business from 5-30 staff - we’re seeing them win a lot of business.

This is taking potential revenue away from property owners that might otherwise secure these tenants in direct office leases.

Lessors will need to try to compete with Flexible Workspace solutions to secure small to medium businesses.

In order to remain competitive, savvy landlords are now offering flexible workspace solutions in their office towers, such as Dexus and GPT.

SYDNEY OFFICE UPDATE | 9

DEXUS PLACE

BY DEXUS Dexus have listened to the needs of tenants and now have two facilities in Sydney - Level 5/1 Margaret Street and Level 15/1 Farrer Place called ‘Dexus Place’.. These facilities provide overflow space for tenants in their buildings, made up of meeting and boardrooms, audio visual conferencing facilities, break out areas and work space areas. Dexus has invested massive capital costs in the facilities and tenants see this as a unique advantage to being in the Dexus portfolio.

SPACE & CO.

BY GPT GPT have developed Space&Co. as a direct result of understanding the need for a flexible workplace offering an inspiring and innovative design that enables collaboration with a strong focus on building an authentic community.

Space&Co. doesn’t require long term contracts; they offer part time hot desks right through to full time desks and offices. This allows businesses to scale up and down their workspace requirements based on the immediate business needs.

SYDNEY OFFICE UPDATE | 11

OFFICE TREND DRAWING INSPIRATION FROM HOMES AND HOTELS Being in business for over 20 years, we have seen our fair share of office fitout trends at Intermain.

In the 90’s, functional minimalism was the norm with developments in IT freeing companies from cumbersome paper and storage requirements.

In the early 2000’s open plan was coming to the fore with tenants asking for innovative solutions to create a more fun, stimulating and dynamic environment.

Today, one of the standout trends we are seeing is the desire for ‘luxe’ offices that blur the lines between ‘lifestyle’ and ‘work’ and more closely resemble a high-end boutique hotel, coastal resort or aspirational home than a traditional office environment.

Tenants regularly ask us to create a workplace that employees love being in, that facilitates productivity, and importantly, doesn’t feel like an office. Key to this is creating comfortable environments that evoke warmth, calm and a general feeling of wellbeing, all qualities that you might expect to find in an exclusive hotel rather than an office space.

Tenants are looking for inviting receptions with upscale interiors that make staff and clients alike feel at ease on arrival. We are seeing working café’s integrated to facilitate conversation and create a warmth and buzz. Welcoming kitchens with communal dining tables that resemble smart restaurants and comfortable seating areas that feel like first class airline lounges are high on the wish list. Calming alfresco spaces that facilitate casual meetings, client entertainment and social events are also sought after.

Perhaps it’s no surprise that tenants tell us that the

positive association with the ‘holiday’ or ‘restaurant’ experience created in their office helps to attract and retain top talent, foster wellness, reduce absenteeism and promote high performance. It’s also true that this same atmosphere has a positive effect on client perceptions and being able to extend excellent hospitality to clients in-house is a huge bonus for relationship and brand-building.

TIP FOR SUCCESS Creating an office that ‘people want to be in’ means different things to different people. Understanding what a tenant wants to achieve and how they want to work is key to designing the right solution.

At Intermain we spend considerable time with our clients at the beginning of a project to get a full picture of their needs, ambitions and the workplace culture they want to foster. We then develop smart solutions tailored to these needs and have seen many clever, well-planned and comfortable spaces have a transformative effect on a company’s culture and productivity.

Seafolly is light and fun and open.

We wanted to form an office space that’s open and light and has those attributes. We have a beautiful kitchen, a beautiful outdoor eating area, and a place where people are just happy to hang out.

TENTANT’S PERSPECTIVE

TRAFF1K DIGITAL

MICHAEL MCDONALD, CEO, TRAFF1K DIGITAL Traff1k is a digital agency focussed on driving our clients’ growth and return on digital investment. With technology advancing every day, digital can be an overwhelming subject for some clients and we have found that our inviting, ‘residential-style’ offices have really helped to put our clients at ease.

Instead of meeting in a cold board room, we invite clients to our central high-end kitchen where we make them a coffee and casually interact. From here they also get to see our staff working and how we tick and really feel part of the team. This has helped to break down barriers and has facilitated excellent collaboration.

DESIGNER’S PERSPECTIVE JESSICA MARINIC, DESIGN MANAGER, INTERMAIN Designs that evoke the atmosphere of a smart hotel or luxurious home are proving more and more popular and in recent months, we have seen a trend towards ‘Hamptons home’ inspired fitout designs, as tenants increasingly project lifestyle aspirations on their vision for a workplace. This style is elegant, classic and calming, and welcomes staff and clients to what feels like a comfortable and impressive home environment.

We have achieved this cost effectively by adding defining touches like glass lantern lighting, wicker seating, natural materials, subway tiling and selecting subtle colour palettes.

Clever use of space also helps to reinforce the theme. Communal meeting spaces such as central open kitchens and cosy lounge areas go further to evoke the feel of a relaxed and aspirational home environment.

A recent example is the fitout of 28 O’Connell Street where we created a Hamptons-theme spec fitout for one of the spaces, which proved very popular, seeing the space leased as installation was being finalised.

ANDREW JOHSON MANAGING DIRECTOR Managing Director of Intermain, an established multi-skilled commercial fitout company focussed on excellent customer service and high quality building standards across building refurbishment, design and construct for corporate offices, ‘make-goods’, retail and hospitality.

CASE STUDY: TENANT:

ODYSSEY PRIVATE EQUITY

SPACE: EY CENTRE, 200 GEORGE STREET, SYDNEY LEASING AGENT: ANDREW TELEPIS 0415 972 696

WHAT WE DO We invest in profitable, mid-sized growth companies in Australia and New Zealand. We particularly look for companies we believe have potential to be future leaders in their market segment and currently manage a $275 million fund, raised from major financial institutions, including Australian superannuation funds. Our investment funds organic expansion, acquisitions, management buyouts / buy-ins and shareholder restructures, in both control and minority equity positions.

We’re made up of four partners and our collective experience is drawn from more than 50 private equity investments during our careers - which also gives us a good understanding of what makes a desirable tenancy and office fitout. We work across a range of industries including consumer products, retail, financial services, industrial products and services, equipment rental, distribution, aged care, manufacturing and building products.

WHY WE RELOCATED We’re a new company so it's not exactly a relocation. Our brief to Ray White was that we wanted a prestigious address in the heart of the CBD financial core. That location was critical to us as it was central to most of their clients - making it easy for them to get to us, or for us to reduce down time when leaving the office for meetings.

EY Centre, 200 George Street was really attractive to us from a design perspective as well as the environmental features. It has these amazing automated timber blinds and timber shading, which not only looks good but combines with special glazing to create a responsive skin on the outside of the building, contributing to the green credentials of the space.

WE LOVE OUR NEW ADDRESS BECAUSE..

It’s a brand new premium grade building with terrific harbour views and abundant natural light.

We never feel shut in and love being able to see the changing weather and harbour activity. It’s in a prime location in the financial core and the on site management team are there to handle anything that crops up. The Six Star Green rating means there’s high volumes of fresh air and locally there are some great restaurants, cafes and gyms. It’s a pleasure to work here.

EY Centre, 200 George Street was developed by Mirvac to be the antithesis of a cold metallic office block. The building, co-owned by Mirvac and AMP Capital, was designed by architects, Francis-Jones Morehen Thorp, to embrace innovation and high technology but remain human and organic in form. It has come to life as dual curvilinear forms, optimising harbour views and natural daylight. Materials like natural timber, sandstone and glass are a direct contrast to the other concrete, grey office blocks around us.

END OF TRIP THERE’S AN INCREASING DEMAND FOR HIGH QUALITY END OF TRIP FACILITIES IN AUSTRALIA’S CBD OFFICE MARKETS, DRIVEN BY TENANTS.

End of trip facilities usually include bike storage, lockers and showers but savvy asset managers are seizing the opportunity to retrofit a range of new and sustainable amenities in existing office spaces, with some outstanding results coming to the market.

This month we focus on the new end of trip facilities at 135 King Street, the home of Ray White’s National head office of over 200 staff.

BUILDING 135 King Street, Sydney, NSW. The building is a 23 level, A Grade office tower and retail shopping complex of approx 32,600 square metres.

LESSOR: Investa and Stockland DATE COMPLETED: The retrofitting project took place over four months on-site from May until August, 2016. The entire program (including design and approvals) spanned nine months.

The building houses iconic international retail brands H&M and Zara Home on the ground floor, and 23 levels of high quality office space above, creating a combined total of approximately 32,600 square metres.

The new end of trip facilities were launched in August 2016, with an event to introduce tenants and building staff to the new offering. 350 guests were treated to healthy smoothies, complimentary massages and body health scans by Virgin Active, as well as a tour of the new facilities.

The event showcased Investa’s firm commitment to engaging their tenants in how they manage the building and creating useful spaces for people who work in the building.

Investa also ran a competition among the tenants to name the new facilities.

Many creative entries came in but the space was eventually christened, Transition Zone. The lucky winner enjoyed a night’s accommodation at the glam QT Hotel Sydney.

SYDNEY OFFICE UPDATE | 17

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

OVERVIEW

LOCATION

The new facilities provide a more accessible, clean and green working environment for tenants who can also enjoy a string of new luxurious features. The facilities were designed to foster work-life balance and provide a smooth and comfortable transition between exercise and the workplace.

It’s now easier for tenants to encourage their employees to live a healthy lifestyle and get to and from work in an environmentally friendly way, as well as improving the green credentials of their business. Some examples of the initiatives include LED lighting on movement sensors, timers on key equipment and water efficient shower fittings and tapware, all installed to minimise the carbon footprint.

Basement Level 2 ESTIMATED COST $1.9 Million BIKE FACILITIES 98 bicycle racks in a secure cage area, with three different types of racks to accommodate cyclist preferences, including hanging racks, stack racks and push-in lock racks.

SHOWERS, LOCKERS AND OTHER FACILITIES The new site is fully air-conditioned and features over 200 lockers, ironing boards, GHD hair straighteners, televisions, drying cupboards for storage of exercise clothes, a shoe polishing machine, chilled water and daily fresh towel service.

Tenants also have the option of using the on-site dry cleaning service located in the bicycle storage area which offers a 24 hour turn-around time for clothes.

There are currently seven new male showers, five female showers and one disabled toilet and shower, however the design features a flexible wall which can be moved if the ratio of male to female showers needs to be altered.

INDUSTRY SPEAK

WHAT T YPES OF SECURIT Y ARE REQUIRED UNDER COMMERCIAL LEASE? WHEN YOU’RE SIGNING UP TO A NEW COMMERCIAL LEASE IT’S A G O O D I D E A T O H AV E A T R U S T E D L AW Y E R REVIEW YOUR LEASE B E F O R E S I G N I N G I T, T O ENSURE IT’S THE RIGHT MOVE FOR YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS. We spoke to JHK Legal about what types of security are required when you’re entering into a commercial lease and what you need to look out for.

WHAT IS A COMMERCIAL LEASE? A commercial lease is an agreement to lease a commercial premise, for example, an office building. A commercial lease grants a tenant exclusive possession of the commercial premises for a certain period of time.

As part of the agreement, a landlord may request security when negotiating a lease. This might be in the form of a cash bond, bank guarantee, personal guarantee or charging clause, and it’s not uncommon for a landlord to ask for multiple securities.

WHAT IS A CASH BOND? A cash bond is physical monies provided by the tenant to the landlord and is usually equivalent to six or twelve months worth of rent. It can also be a bank cheque and is deposited by the landlord to guarantee performance of the tenant’s lease obligations.

WHAT IS A BANK GUARANTEE? A bank guarantee is an undertaking from a bank for a designated amount to guarantee payment to the landlord if called upon. The tenant will need to have the designated amount held in an account with the bank that issues the guarantee. If the tenant defaults on the lease, the landlord can call on the bank guarantee and convert the guarantee into the cash equivalent of the amount designated in the guarantee upon a tenant’s breach of lease obligations.

WHAT IS A PERSONAL GUARANTEE? A personal guarantee requires an individual (often a Director of a Company or Shareholder) to guarantee the obligations of the tenant (often a company or trust). This means that if the tenant fails to meet its obligations pursuant to the lease, action can be taken against the guarantor by the landlord. There’s no requirement for the landlord to take action against the tenant first. Caution should be taken when providing a personal guarantee under a lease and advice should be sought regarding the terms of the guarantee and the legal consequences that arise when entering into a guarantee.

WHAT IS A CHARGING CLAUSE? A charging clause is normally worded as: “I charge all of my property whether real or personal held now and in the future as security for the payment of any moneys that I may owe you at any time”.

The effect of a charging clause in a commercial lease means that the landlord becomes a secured creditor who can, as an example, lodge a caveat over any land owned by the person granting the charge, which means you can no longer deal with the land without first dealing with the landlord’s security. Caution should be taken when signing a lease which contains a charging clause.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO LOOK OUT FOR? You should carefully review any commercial lease agreements, and be wary of any charging clauses ,personal guarantees or other security requirements contained within. It is not unusual to negotiate on the terms of the lease in relation to the security requirements, so that a satisfactory position is reached for all parties involved. It is important to seek legal advice to make sure you are aware of your obligations, and terms can be negotiated if necessary.
