IN CONVERSATION: SCOTT HUTCHINSON
Scott Hutchinson is the chairman of Hutchinson Builders, Australia’s largest privately owned construction company. He is also the great-grandson of Jack Hutchinson, who founded the company after immigrating to Australia in 1911; it’s true to say that he was born for this role. More than just keeping the business running however, Scott has taken "Hutchies" to great heights. We sat down recently to hear more about how a conscientious attitude, focus on quality and a long-term outlook can translate into success.

Development Ready: As it was founded back in 1911, can you tell us about the origin of Hutchinson Builders? Scott Hutchinson: My great-grandfather came to Australia in 1911, but the first building that he completed was in fact in 1912. He was already operating in his home town, Manchester in England, and shortly after the family’s arrival, his sons joined his activities. DR: When did you get involved in the family business? SH: When I was about 10 years old, I could see and understand what both my Father and his Father were doing. I knew early on that this was a legacy that I was going to continue. After I finished my degree in civil engineering in 1981, I worked for three years with a structural engineer to get my registration. Following a stint abroad in Europe, where I toured around in a combi with some of my closest friends, I returned to Brisbane to finish my MBA. I entered Hutchinson Builders shortly after that.

though was to remain adaptable, which was quite different to the approach of my grandfather and great-grandfather. He would always look at the way something was done and wonder if it could be done better. I guess it’s the idea of welcoming change, rather than fearing it. DR: Has this philosophy stayed with the business to the current era? SH: Definitely. I did every elective in the MBA that I could on Human Resources, and I saw a connection between those practices and our own, in terms of adaptability. It helped me view the business in a way that moved away from pyramid management styles. In this, our employees allow changes in the market to move through the business. We’re flexible, and there’s no one just trying to impress people above them for short term gain.
DR: And into what role to did you enter? SH: Apprentice project manager, but it was sort of a working-title. I was placed under the supervision of one of the more advanced foremans of the business, and as well as that my father involved me in nearly every facet of its operations.
DR: Now the business has grown to around 1,750 employees, what do you think it takes to grow a business to that size? SH: Hutchinson Builders doesn’t have any profit goals, turnover goals, geographic goals, so it really has just happened naturally. Our flat management structure, however, is one unique aspect that I believe is key to our success. This is something that started with my father, but I formally introduced it.
DR: Did he pass down much wisdom? SH: Absolutely, he was fantastic to work with and it’s a little difficult to know where to start. His main lesson
DR: Do you think this approach works for everyone? SH: There are pros and cons to it, like any structure. You do get some difficult times, because you are

traditional languages. This is a program centralised around the training, development and placement of indigenous people into jobs, with ongoing support. We’ve placed 350 individuals so far, with a target of 550 by 2020. The response has been incredible.
DR: You’re deeply passionate about music and cultural activities, was this a main driver behind The Fortitude Music Hall development? SH: Before that project, we were just about to sell block in Newstead to developers, who wanted to construct apartments, when the bass player from Powderfinger and some other museos said that they wanted a music venue in place instead. I pulled the sale quickly and we set to work on building what is now The Triffid. After that, I saw that Brisbane was in a bit of trouble, having no inner-city big music venue after Festival Hall got demolished in 2003. I knew that I had to do something. We started looking for sites and found one that had a DA for 350 units, so I had to pay for something that the music industry itself couldn’t afford. It ended up costing us about $46 million and it was valued at around $30 million. It’s not commercial but I think it’s important for the city.
DR: What do you think of the construction industry at the moment, are there any challenges? SH: The challenge at the moment is quality. Too much was built too quickly. We worked out around five years ago that there was going to be this problem and a big thanks needs to go our Managing Director Greg Quinn. We had quality people all over it and it (quality) is now built into our culture.
DR: Can you tell us about some of the other socially and ethically minded practices that have been brought into the business? SH: The main initiative that comes to mind was instigated by our managing director Greg Quinn. Statim Yaga, which roughly translates to ‘start work’ in several
DR: So, are the opportunities limited currently? SH: Not at all. It’s counter-intuitive, but builders do better when the market is coming off. Booms don’t help us at all. We’re excited for a return to quality for the industry, and we’re seeing more clients starting to look for builders with bigger balance sheets and better reputations. I think that the future is a place for builders of merit, where the decisions that are made come from a conscientious place, and hold a long-term lens.

Australia has many rising markets charted by an increasing number of house and unit sales. Market sentiment appears to be spurred on by the Reserve Bank cutting interest rates to historic lows this year. Hotspotting founder Terry Ryder says Australia's leading growth markets are showing up in unexpected places. The latest Price Predictor Index has found the highest number of growth suburbs in regional centres like Victoria's Bendigo and Queensland's Sunshine Coast. The index is based on two fundamentals: sales volumes as a better way to chart growth than median prices, and a sustained rise in sales volumes to be followed by a rise in prices.

ACT Canberra is the strongest real estate economy in Australia, with the nation’s highest average incomes and the lowest unemployment. It is challenging Victoria as No.1 on population growth, it has low vacancies and it often leads on rental growth. The BELCONNEN District is Canberra’s number one jurisdiction for suburbs with rising sales activity. This precinct has a number of affordable suburbs, vacancies are well below 1 per cent, rental yields are solid and some suburbs have grown their median prices 6-7 per cent in the past 12 months.
QLD The BRISBANE NORTH precinct is the most active part of the Brisbane market, poised for stronger growth. This middle-ring area has 10 suburbs with rising sales demand, including Alderley, its median prices have risen 5 per cent for houses and 22 per cent for units. Other growth suburbs include Boondall, Chermside West, Everton Park, Kedron, McDowall, Sandgate, Stafford, Stafford Heights and Wavell Heights. These are all middle-market areas with median prices in the $600,000s and $700,000s. The SUNSHINE COAST continues to be the strongest of the Queensland markets, both in terms of rising sales activity and price growth. Sunshine Coast is rising while the more high-profile Gold Coast market is falling. The Sunshine Coast has
10 suburbs with rising buyer demand and another 13 have consistent sales activity. Landsborough and Little Mountain feature on our National Top 50 list. More than 60 per cent of regional Queensland markets have median prices higher than a year ago. Of the higher growth markets, 21 have increased by more than 10 per cent, and 10 of those 21 locations are Sunshine Coast suburbs, led by Eumundi (28 per cent), Sunshine Beach (15 per cent), Twin Waters (15 per cent) and Wurtulla (15 per cent).
SA The CHARLES STURT LGA extends north-west from central Adelaide out to the beaches and includes a range of good suburbs, including eight where sales activity is rising steadily. They include inner-city Brompton as well as middle-market suburbs like Findon, Seaton, Flinders Park, Woodville South and Fulham Gardens. Henley Beach and West Beach also have growth momentum. Good price growth is happening in this area, including Henley Beach South (the median house price is up 15 per cent to $985,000). The MARION LGA, a middle-market area in the southwest of Adelaide which has been a market leader for the past 18 months, is once again a standout market – indeed one that ranks nationally. It has nine suburbs with rising sales patterns, including Ascot Park, Edwardstown, Glengowrie, Hallett Cove, Marion, O’Halloran Hill and Seacombe Gardens. Warradale makes our National Top 50 list of rising suburbs, its median house price of $595,000 is typical of the Marion LGA’s middle-ring affordability.
EDITORIAL
The PORT ADELAIDE ENFIELD LGA emerged in 2018 as an up-and-coming market in the SA capital – and continues to be one of the busiest precincts in Adelaide. Our latest survey reveals seven suburbs with rising activity, including Croydon Park, Dernancourt, Greenacres, North Haven, Rosewater and Royal Park. Dernancourt features in our National Top 50 list. This precinct is being boosted by major local events, including the massive program of building vessels for the Australian Navy and ongoing development around the port. The Osborne Naval Shipyard is undergoing a $535 million upgrade to accommodate the building of 40 new Defence craft; 500 public servants are being moved here; and a new rail spur is proposed to link the Port’s commercial centre and the Dock One residential precinct to the Adelaide CBD. As we have observed many times, ONKAPARINGA always features prominently in our analysis of the Adelaide market. It currently has seven suburbs with growth momentum – including Aldinga Beach, which features in our National Top 50 list of supercharged suburbs. Other growth markets include Christies Beach, Hackham, Happy Valley, Old Reynella and Seaford. This LGA ticks a lot of boxes for investors: it has lifestyle, affordability, improved transport links, economic growth drivers, population growth and proximity to major jobs nodes. The completion of two pieces of key transport infrastructure - the extension of rail links to Seaford and duplication of the Southern Expressway has delivered faster access to the Adelaide CBD and made the region more accessible.
VIC BENDIGO is now the leading market in Victoria in terms of the number of suburbs with rising demand, having overtaken other strong markets like Geelong and Ballarat. It’s attracting both home buyers and investors out of Melbourne, chasing affordability and better rental yields in a growth centre.
08
Many Bendigo suburbs have median prices in the $300,000s, emphasising the city’s affordability. Bendigo is rising because of its own inherent strengths – including a strong and diverse economy – and its strong links to Melbourne.
WA The JOONDALUP LGA continues to be a stand-out for its steadiness and resilience against the Perth downturn and is poised to lead the city’s market recovery. It now has eight suburbs with rising sales momentum, which makes it number 1 in Perth and among the best of the nation’s LGAs. The suburbs of this LGA are based around the Joondalup CBD, which is a centre for infrastructure and services for Perth’s north. Growth markets include Burns Beach, Duncraig, Edgewater, Greenwood, Joondalup, Mullaloo and Padbury, many of which offer good affordability. The City of MELVILLE in Perth’s inner south is one of the precincts leading the market fightback in the WA capital. It has seven growth markets and seven consistent performers. Suburbs with rising sales demand include Attadale, Bull Creek, Kardinya, Leeming, Mt Pleasant and Palmyra – some of which are million-dollar suburbs but most are middle-market areas. The star is Willagee, which makes our National Top 50 list, also shows sign of growth in the median house price at $520,000.

AROUND THE COUNTRY There’s been some significant commercial and industrial movement across Victoria this past month. Charter Hall have made their third recent acquisition in Dandenong South, paying $30.9 million for the industrial base of cosmetics and cleaning products company Greencare Developments. A 6,000sqm suburban corporate office building on Dandenong Road in Clayton was picked up by a Hong Long Investor for $30 million in one of the largest suburban office transactions of the year. Frasers Property Australia spent $27.5 million on a 43-hectare industrial site in Tarneit. The property last changed hands for $333,721 in December 2008 and was sold to Frasers after being rezoned for industrial use. Southern Cross Education Institute has acquired a vacant commercial property, situated at 530-538 Victoria Street in North Melbourne, for $7 million. The site is zoned for educational uses and joins Southern Cross’s three other Melbourne campuses. Private investors traded a recently developed, 2,038sqm office/showroom/warehouse facility in Bayswater, for $4.5 million. The property was sold subject to a five-year lease, returning an annual rent of $256,000. NEW SOUTH WALES Stockland made waves, securing the remaining 50% share of Sydney’s Piccadilly Centre from Oxford Properties for $347 million. Simultaneously, Stockland sold off its half share of the nearby 135 King Street and the Glasshouse shopping centre for $340 million. The 4,800sqm Piccadilly site presents a considerable redevelopment opportunity amid Sydney’s well performing office market. The recent ~$81 million sale of the Seasons Harbour Plaza serviced apartment hotel, at 252 Sussex Street in the CBD, marked the first transaction to be made via a NSW court-ordered strata renewal collective sale. 75% of the tower's 90 owners agreed to the sale of the 19-storey hotel, with the other 25% remaining silent. An office strata block at 270-272 Pacific Highway in Crows Nest has been sold by Chinese-backed investor China Venture for close to $60 million. Over a period of several years, China Venture amalgamated around 45 office strata units and tried, unsuccessfully, to ac-
quire development approval for a high-rise office in its place. The Australian Financial Review indicated that if the development plans had been approved, the site could have sold for as much as $150 million. The sale of 1-9 Buckingham Street in Surry Hills far exceeded its $20 million expectation, with a final sold price just over $33.5 million. A Chinese investor secured the four-storey office building after a hotly contested campaign involving over 440 enquiries. A 1,393sqm site with approval for the construction of 24 apartments in Granville was been secured by local builder and developer, Cordell Constructions, for around $2.5 million. Finally, a "hole in the wall" commercial space in Sydney’s CBD has sold for $1.57 million, presenting a near-record of $112,143 per square metre. QUEENSLAND Previously held by US property giant Blackstone and German group HSBC Trinkaus, 400 George Street, a 35-level, A-grade Brisbane tower, settled to Cromwell Property Group for $524.75 million. The Noosa Civic shopping centre on the Sunshine Coast was returned to its previous owner after property developer and former Olympic swim champion, Mark Stockwell, paid near $250 million for it. Mr Stockwell had sold the property to QIC in 2012 for around $200 million. The Best Western Plus Lake Kawana Hotel on the Sunshine Coast, has traded hands from developer Triple B Motels to Gold Coast-based Centro Group of Companies for $15 million. The 81-room hotel was developed by Bruce McDiamard and opened in 2015. A tenanted strata office at 170 Leichhardt Street in Spring Hill transacted the biggest strata sale in Brisbane this year, after being picked up by a Sydney investor for $5 million. Current tenant, Imagine Education Australia, will stay on for seven years. Showing signs of recovery in retail rental vacancies in the area, a three-storey, beachfront commercial property on the Sunshine Coast sold for $4.55 million to a Victorian investor. The Coolum property is leased to 10 separate tenants returning $321,000 annually. A vacant and newly refurbished industrial facility in Brisbane’s Virginia sold to irrigation and agricultural engineering specialists, Aquamonix, for $2.7 million.

Credit Suisse bought the Grenfell Street property in 2016 for $125 million. A newly developed United Petroleum service station, 10km north-west of Adelaide’s CBD was sold by Adelaide developer Nick Emmett for $5.25 million. Centuria Capital Group has successfully acquired a South Australian industrial property for an undisclosed amount. This is the second recent acquisition in the state for Centuria, following the office acquisition in Adelaide’s CBD. The Edinburgh facility was sold with a leaseback and comprises a state-of-the-art office and warehouse built 2013. WESTERN AUSTRALIA iProsperity Group (iPG) recently settled one of the most anticipated hotels deals in Australia, with the absorbing of AccorInvest's 23-hotel portfolio for $300 million. The portfolio comprises of predominantly freehold, economy-style hotels and offers more than 3,000 rooms nationally. Spread across Australia’s major capital cities and regional areas, the list include notable hotels such as the 239-room Mercure Perth, the 412-room dual ibis Brisbane and Mercure Brisbane CBD hotels, the 296room Novotel Brisbane, the 250-room ibis Melbourne Hotel and the 200-room ibis Sydney Airport. AccorInvest remains the most dominant hotel operator in Australia after acquiring its biggest rival, Mantra Group, for $1.2 billion earlier this year. Three adjoining commercially zoned development lots totalling 5,666sqm, situated at 705-707 Murray Street in West Perth, have sold for a little over $12.3 million. A 986sqm property, at 378-380 William Street in Perth, with the potential to accommodate apartments or a mixed-use development has sold for $4.23 million. The property is located just one block from the Northbridge entertainment area, the property was sold to a Perth-based investor with a retained lease. A strata office in the Spectrum building in Subiaco returned $4 million from local investor Hawketail Enterprises. The property retains its current lease to NKH Knight, which expires in 2024.

Suburb Report: Greensborough Greensborough is a north-eastern suburb of Melbourne, highly prized for its location and space. Both the size of the blocks, and the homes planted on them, are notably capacious, with ‘families’ comprising the primary occupants for a long time. This multi-person-dwelling era is, however, evolving. Good quality amenities, increased infrastructure and the comfortable proximity to both the CBD and countryside, has seen a multitude of young working professionals starting to begin their sentences with “I’d love to live in Greensborough”.
CULTURE
Situated approximately 23km north-east of Melbourne’s CBD, Greensborough offers a landscape ideal for raising families. Living up to its namesake, the neighbourhood is a leafy thoroughfare with multiple parks nearby and hills that continue to roll away from the city. The family friendly nature however is not to overshadow its emerging transformation. The Government’s North-East Link project will drastically improve CBD connections, and coupled with the multiple public transport options practically brings the city to the RESIDENTS doorstep. A fervent professional workforce is set to enter the area, with new lifestyle and The 2019 estimated residential population cultural demands. of Greensborough is 22,205.

ASX-listed retail property group Vicinity Centres has announced plans to build a purpose-built electronic sports (eSports) complex at Emporium Melbourne, featuring a 200-seat stadium and two floors of gaming and entertainment.

Melbourne, now the epicentre for video gaming and esports culture – with major events such as Melbourne eSports Open and PAX Australia – will now open the largest eSports venue in the southern hemisphere, dubbed Fortress Melbourne. The multi-billion-dollar eSports industry presents a massive opportunity for property developers in Australia aiming to cash in on the hype and diversify their portfolio away from traditional real estate investments. The Emporium-based eSports venue will offer an Australian-first purpose-built arena, with more than 160 gaming PCs, console gaming suites, dedicated streamer pods, Roll Playing Game (RPG) and tabletop game play area, function rooms, a full-service restaurant and two bars. eSporting tournament viewership has already surpassed that of traditional sports broadcasting. According to Nielsen and Rentrak, total cumulative viewership for major sports finals place the US's NFL Super Bowl first with 124 million viewers and the world's premiere esports competition League of Legends second with 58 million, ahead of international cricket (46 million) and the NBA Finals (32 million). The rising emergence of the eSports sector – which surpassed $135 billion in revenue worldwide last year, is now expected to grow exponentially with brands and potential sponsors looking to get in early in an market expected to reach $2.5 billion by 2022. A big part of the sport's future revenue opportunities will revolve around live events – with opportunities to build fan engagement with specific teams and players, while generating typical sports-related revenues in merchandise, concessions and the rest. Players are also enjoying the lion's share of revenue. Last month Melbourne-based teenager Anathan Pham, 19, collected $4.62 million in prize money at last month’s Dota 2 world championships in Shanghai. “Emporium Melbourne is thrilled to become the home of the Southern Hemisphere’s biggest video gaming and esports venue which will offer a one-of- a-kind Australian gaming and entertainment experience,” Vicinity Centres chief development officer Carolyn Viney said.
“We are always looking at new, unique experiences to offer our customers and with the global phenomenon of esports rapidly gaining fans in Australia, Emporium Melbourne’s city location makes it the obvious choice for an esports arena and gaming venue that will cater to all audiences.” While global esports industry revenues are cresting the $1.5 billion mark in 2019, Australian revenues are far behind. The PwC Entertainment and Media Outlook 2019 report estimates total Australian esports revenue in 2018 was around $4 million and will reach an estimated $8 million by 2023. Other commercial esports operations in Australia are focused around game developer-owned league events, such as Riot Games’ League of Legends Oceanic Pro League and Activision Blizzard’s Overwatch Contenders Australia, along with major one-off weekend events. Goldman Sachs has also agreed that eSports is rapidly moving into the mainstream. The professionalisation of what was previously seen as computer games has paved the way for esports to reach nearly 300 million viewers by 2022. Fortress Melbourne will offer the best video gaming experiences and entertainment, with the newest tech, fastest internet, comfortable decor, great food and drinks, and a rich calendar of events and tournaments, plus more,” Fortress Esports chief executive Jon Satterley said. Set to open its doors in early 2020, the stadium, designed by Populous – responsible ANZ Stadium and the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London – will tap into Emporium Melbourne's 20 million annual visitors.

IS THE UPTREND IN VIC TRANSACTIONS LINKED TO A RETURN OF CONFIDENCE?
16
CBRE Victorian Developments Site Sales have witnessed a big uptrend in development site sites, transacting seven sites in the past two weeks alone. But what does this mean for the broader market and why is it happening? This is much more than developers regaining confidence from the improved clearance rate. We believe that developers and confident investors will be returning to the apartment / townhouse off-the-plan market; with reasons summarised below: Melbourne’s ongoing booming population growth has created the tightest rental market we have seen for ten years. Vacancy rates are currently sitting comfortably under 3% across all Melbourne precincts. Given the slowdown in building activity, a smart developer knows that this trend will lead to improved investor conditions over the medium to longer term. There is less competition but compelling reasons for an investor to buy, which makes for good reasons to buy sites: • Melbourne will continue to grow. We need affordable well located apartment product to cater for this booming demand for inner city living. Developers are pre-empting the under supply of residential product and are focusing their attention to buy sites now. • As rents grow and banks offer the cheapest debt in our history, it makes solid sense for investors to capture higher yields on their money than cash rates that banks offer. • Negative gearing will continue long term after the death of the ALP Federal Government challenge, so the higher yield will also be tax effective for many years to come. • Gross yields in some suburbs are now over 5%, with the benefit of depreciation, this figure could be even higher. This would indicate that apartment values could increase based on historical yield trends compared to other asset classes. Melbourne is also a very safe place to buy – it is relatively more affordable than Sydney and it offers some of the best education in the southern hemisphere. It is an attractive proposition to lure many Asian investors back into the apartment market. In addition to this, increasing confidence in the residential housing sector will lead to more owner occupiers selling their homes to either downsize, or assist in funding their children’s first acquisition into the residential market. All up, it appears that we are heading back into a stronger market in the residential development sector.

All these properties are different. That’s why our approach is. When it comes to gaining the maximum from a property investment, there’s no one size that fits all.
From there it’s up to you.
That’s as true of the four properties across the page, as any other we deal with.
As a trusted generational advisor with a commitment to embracing change, we have strong experience with development, do our homework first and talk second.
Each has qualities that immediately stand out.
We’re not in it for the quick sting, but for the long term and we think that’s a bit different.
Park views, generous street frontage, public transport hub and strong income in prime corner position.
Good luck and good buying.

160-UNIT DEVELOPMENT IN REDFERN Content Supplied by:
A proposal for a flagship 160 apartment development located at 11 Gibbons Street Redfern has received development approval for one of Australia's largest community housing providers SGCH. The 18-storey $90 million development will deliver a mixture of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom units, including ground floor retail and commercial space, management office and a community hub. SGCH is buying the Redfern site, which was previously a council depot, from the City of Sydney for $15.2 million. SGCH chief executive Scott Langford says the project is an important piece of social infrastructure. “[Located] in a high demand location with excellent access to public transport and major employment centres,” Langford said. “It’s a critical project moment and brings us closer to the day we welcome 160 households into their new home in the heart of Redfern.” SGCH, a not-for-profit community housing provider, is working with Joe Hurst from the Boomali Aboriginal Artists Co-Op to include Aboriginal art as part of the building fabric, including the brick façade, lobby and the communal open space. The site, which was made available for social and affordable housing, is part of a state significant area known as the Redfern Waterloo Growth Centre. The project is in partnership with the City of Sydney, through the discounted land contribution, and project financiers Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC). The application was lodged with the Department of Planning and Environment in September last year, with construction expected to commence next month. The development is the outcome of a design excellence pilot program with the NSW government architect. Lord Mayor Clover Moore said the city of Sydney was exploring new ways to increase the supply of affordable housing in the city. “Including through selling land at discounted rates and through our Alternative Housing Ideas Challenge which will help develop new housing models and new ways of thinking about housing finance, management and design.”
→ Image: The Urban Developer
Affordable housing enables key workers, the likes of teachers, nurses and firemen to live close to their place of employment. SGCH, which develops buildings with sustainability standards through its partnership with CEFC, now houses around 11,000 people in more than 6,300 homes across the Sydney Metropolitan Region. It has a development pipeline of 1000 dwellings to be delivered by 2022. The new Redfern building will be energy efficient with an 8-star rating under the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS), providing increased thermal comfort and reduced household energy costs, a vital factor for low income households in social and affordable housing.

Suburb Report: Mermaid Beach With the stunning canals and estuaries of the Gold Coast to the west and the vast Pacific Ocean to east, Mermaid Beach is a gorgeous coastal township situated pretty much halfway between Southport and Burleigh Heads. While its aquatic nature cannot be avoided, and many herald it as one of Australia’s most beautiful coastlines, Mermaid Beach also presents a varied lifestyle with proximity to all pleasures of South-East Queensland. Large scale apartment complexes have done, and continue to do, well in the area, taking full advantage of the demand for comfort, ease and, of course, a spectacular view.
bane’s CBD within an hour, and Byron Bay within 45 minutes. The surrounding neighbourhoods included, this beachy-vibe community is serviced by schooling at all levels; from day-care to university. Families can often be seen out enjoying the beaches or the many wonderful nearby parks – don’t forget your picnic basket. Restaurants, shopping and local nightlife are easily enjoyed at the very nearby Surfers Paradise, while other precincts in proximity all offer their own unique charm. Some renowned locations include the Magic Mountain and Santorini Resorts, Pacific Fair Shopping Centre, Conrad Jupiters Casino and Oasis Shopping Centre.

MARQUETTE SNAPS UP QUEEN ST MALL ASSET Content Supplied by:
Brisbane-based investment manager Marquette Properties has snapped up a prime corner retail asset in central Brisbane for $77 million, quickly moving to undertake major refurbishment works. Marquette, which dipped into the Brisbane office market in April with the purchase of 288 Edward Street for $115 million alongside US real estate investment management firm Heitman, has now partnered with global asset manager PGIM to acquire the high profile retail asset. The four-storey retail property, with three frontages in the heart of one of Australia's busiest malls, features the largest McDonald’s in the southern hemisphere. The 1,102sq m site, located on the corner of Queen Street Mall and Albert Street, was previously owned by the Smorgon family – led by the late billionaire Victor Smorgon, who held the site for 23 years. Marquette now plans to undertake major refurbishment works to reposition the asset into a “trophy investment appropriate to its prime location”. The property group has engaged Brisbane-based architectural practice Cavill Architects to design a refurbishment that will heighten the visitor experience, retail exposure and increase trade. The retail and office building, which offers 3,770 square metres, is fully leased with a 5.1-year weighted average lease term. Notable tenants include Gelatissimo, Forever New and Money Exchange. JLL's Sam Hatcher, who brokered the deal for 130 Queen Street with colleagues Seb Turnbull, Jacob Swan and Luke Billiau, pointed at the “scarcity value” of assets on super-prime strips such as Queen Street Mall. “CBD retail is one of the most compelling sub-sectors at present given the underlying land value and potential for future adaptive re-use.” “The property has the potential to be a future multi-level flagship development.” Marquette's strategic partners PGIM continue to flex their muscle after last year transacting $17 billion worth of property, including acquiring a 75 per cent stake in York & George, a $450 million retail and commercial development at 383 George Street in Sydney.
→ Image: The Urban Developer
PGIM also bought and sold 215 Adelaide Street in 2015, following a major refurbishment and they were also the financier behind the Howard Smith Wharves development, providing $70 million in funding. Marquette and PGIM are now eyeing the underlying fundamentals and potential of Brisbane's most central and prominent retail strip. “Marquette looks to buy assets and transform them into trophy investments that make the city better,” Marquette managing director Toby Lewis said. “We also look to buy assets that are familiar to us in our personal and professional lives as we feel it gives us safety and understanding about the asset and its local context to the community around it. “For us to be acquiring an asset so familiar to us as locals and most ‘Brisbanites’ is really exciting.” Marquette in partnership with Moelis Australia Asset Management also recently sold 164 Grey Street, South Bank for $46 million. Refurbishment works for 130 Queen Street are set to commence earlier next year and with completion due mid-2020.

Suburb Report: Somerton Park It’s been referred to as Adelaide’s “little slice of paradise”, and after diving into this beachside neighbourhood, we think we agree. Somerton Park is a quiet and peaceful suburb just south of the culturally vibrant Glenelg; being within walking distance, it’s close enough to be amongst it, but far enough away that ‘quaint’ and ‘peaceful’ are the primary adjectives to describe it. Emerging families, single professionals, older families, retirees and tourists – you’ll find them all on the foreshore strolling from dawn until dusk – domesticated quadrupeds at their side, of course. RESIDENTS The population as of the 2016 Census for Somerton Park was 5,537; this is only marginally higher than the 5,388 recorded in 2011, however most of the development action has been within the last two years. The median age of 46 is also noticeably higher than that of the state, 40, and Australia, 38. This stems from a mix of older and emerging families in the area; 27.2% of residents are between the ages of 50 and 70. Interestingly, while 36.4% of homes are occupied by just one person, only 9.7% of homes are one bedroom. There exists significant opportunity for subdivision or for changing existing dwelling structures.

CULTURE
SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS
Being situated just a short drive to the city, and having one of Adelaide’s most prominent beaches on the doorstep, makes this a very popular place for establishing a family residence. The area is also supported by a strong number of quality schools, such as Sacred Heart College and Brighton Secondary School. Weekends are spent by the beach, or perusing the nearby shopping precincts, with Jetty Road Glenelg and Jetty Road Brighton easily accessible on foot, and the Marion Shopping Centre just a 5-minute drive.

HINES WINS APPROVAL FOR MICRO HOTEL Content Supplied by:
South Australian developer Hines Property has received planning approval for a $55 million micro-hotel, set to be Adelaide’s first. If realised, the hotel would comprise a frontage less than 8 metres smaller than the Ibis Adelaide, on the corner of Twin and Grenfell Streets, which on a slightly smaller block has a frontage of 15 metres. The 274 North Terrace hotel, located on the corner of Frome Street in central Adelaide, will offer 253 highend compact rooms ranging in size from 13 square metres to 28 square metres, designed for short-stay visitors and millennial travellers. The 15-storey development, to be constructed on the site of an existing car park on Adelaide’s North Terrace, will be located opposite the former Royal Adelaide Hospital site, known as Lot Fourteen, which the state government plans to redevelop into a “creation and innovation neighbourhood”. Micro hotels – popular in Europe, Asia and the United States – are affordable, minimalist and compact without sacrificing style. “The micro-hotel trend is booming in cities across the globe, so we’re bringing the concept to Adelaide which is really exciting,” Hines Property managing director James Hines said. “Micro-hotels are perfect for people who want a quality place to stay and are happy to trade excess room space for a lower room cost. Hines has 15 years of experience developing and owning hotels like the Ibis Adelaide Hotel and Pullman Adelaide, which has made Hines Property the largest private owner of hotels in the city, as well as CBD apartments. The 274 North Terrace development is set to bolster its hotel development portfolio to more than 1,000 hotel rooms. The hotel is one of a number of hotel projects slated for central Adelaide including a 28-storey hotel to be operated by Hyatt and developed by Singaporean property developer Chip Eng Seng in the CBD, a 25-storey

$180 million QT hotel on Currie Street and a $330 million expansion of the Adelaide Casino. Construction of the 274 North Terrace hotel is anticipated to commence next year ahead of opening in 2021. Hines said a worldwide search is already under way to select an operator for the hotel.

Suburb Report: Cottesloe Beautiful Cottesloe, as it’s more often referred to, is a beach-centric western suburb of Perth, about a 20-minute drive from the CBD. Praised for its ocean-frontage and relaxed disposition, Cottesloe is the premier location for those who want their lifestyle served with a mix of business and pleasure. Off the beach, the sandy streets are lined by Norfolk Island pines and decorated by stunning Victorian and Edwardian homes on modest. Central to most of Perth’s happenings, nowhere feels too far away – but when the beaches look this inviting, nowhere else really matters.
CULTURE
SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS
With one of Perth’s most celebrated beaches on the door step, and the city centres of Perth and Fremantle a short drive away, a Cottesloe home is one of the envies of the west coast. The beach stretches out for around 1.5 km and through summer you’ll find just about everyone vying for a slice. Two local primary schools, one high school, a railway station, shopping centre, various public parks, a golf club and a tennis centre, are just some of the holistic lifestyle amenities that fill out this well-rounded community. Life is to be enjoyed.
INDIANA TEAROOMS: Mining magnate Andrew Forrest has recently purchased the iconic Indiana Tearooms on Cottesloe Beach, with plans for a major rejuvenation. Two finalists have been selected, with jury and community support, and the final proposals have been submitted; a winner will be declared in October 2019. Both finalist designs incorporate social spaces, various designations for hospitality ventures, public swimming pools and viewing terraces. The architecture firms responsible for the designs include; Durbach Block Jaggers Architects (with OHLO Studio and ASPECT Studios) and Kerry Hill Architects.
RESIDENTS PRICE Between the 2011 and 2016 Censuses Cottesloe’s population was stagnant, recording 7,375 residents in 2016. The median age sits relatively higher than the state, at 42 compared to 36. Predominantly comprised of well-to-do mature families, professional couples and individuals, Cottesloe’s high demand has translated into the residential precinct being regarded as one of Perth’s priciest. One-bedroom apartments are among the rarest of finds through the neighbourhood, taking around 5% of total dwelling structure. Over 70% of dwellings have three or more bedrooms.
→ Indiana Tearooms. Image: Kerry Hill Architects and Durbach Block Jaggers Architects
HOUSES: As of 4 September 2019, the median house price in Cottesloe was $2 million. While this is lower than its $2.2 million peak in mid-2018, it is still well above its $1.7 million median price from 2016. Weekly median advertised rent is $850. UNITS: As of 4 September 2019, the median unit price is $700,000. For apartments that offer three or more bedrooms however, this number jumps up $2.25 million (three-bedroom houses have a median house price of $2.28 million). Opportunities can be found in both high-end one-bedroom units and large multi-bedroom luxury apartments. Weekly median advertised rent is $428.

CANUTE RETIRES $140M CROSSCOUNTRY PORTFOLIO Content Supplied by:
Family-owned Canute Investments Limited has listed a range of properties in Queensland and Western Australia for $140 million citing retirement as the reason for the divestments. The assets include three fully-leased neighbourhood shopping centres – Logan Village shopping centre and Ormeau Village in Queensland as well as Carramar Village in WA – a commercial building in Perth, and an 84 property residential portfolio in WA. The 4,700sq m Woolworths Ormeau is located 35 kilometres north-west of Surfers Paradise. It comprises a Woolworths supermarket and six specialty stores and sits on an 8,607sq m site. Logan Village, also with a Woolworths Supermarket, is 48 kilometres south-west of Brisbane and sits on a 1.2-hectare site. Both centres are currently on separate 20-year leases drawing fully leased net incomes of $926,000 a year for Logan Village and $1,715,000 a year for Ormeau Village. The 5,294sqm Carramar Village shopping centre, in Perth's northern suburbs, is anchored by a Woolworths supermarket and has parking for 300 vehicles. It has a fully-leased net income of $2,050,000. The WA residential portfolio comprises 84 residential properties, featuring a fully-leased gross income of $1,536,000 – all available in one-line and alongside an aligned property management business. Canute’s 2,591sqm office building at 13-15 Rheola Street in West Perth offers medium-term redevelopment opportunity and a fully-leased net income of $975,400 per annum. CBRE's Richard Cash, Anthony Del Borrello, Ben Younger and Derek Barlow have been appointed to market the WA assets while Joe Tynan and Michael Hedger have been appointed to market the Queensland shopping centres. “These market conditions, combined with the compelling investment fundamentals of these properties, are expected to ignite interest from local WA investors, national groups and offshore parties,” Cash said. Hedger said the Queensland shopping centres, with

long weighted average lease expiries of more than 12 years each, offered potential investors good income security. “Both investment opportunities are located in two of Brisbane’s highest-growth residential corridors, which are expected to see double digit growth within their respective main trade areas while also allowing opportunity for development and expansion.”

SAM TARASCIO ON BUILDING AN EMPIRE

THE PROPERT Y DE VELOPMENT RE VIE W
81
From an outcast migrant child who arrived in Port Melbourne as five-year-old Salvatore Tarascio in 1949, to becoming an Australian billionaire, Sam Tarascio believes everyone has an interesting story to share.
← Sam Tarcasio. Image: The Urban Developer
Today Tarascio presides over a multi-billion dollar business, but it's a long way from the early days where as new migrants to Australia he and his parents lived with two other families in a 12sqm house in Melbourne suburb Werribee on Watson Street. Tarascio founded Salta Properties, one of Australia’s largest privately-owned companies in 1972 after spotting an opportunity – buying swampland and building a simple warehouse. Starting in the logistics sector, Salta Properties spans the construction, commercial, residential, hotel and build-to-rent sectors. But after almost five decades in the property game, what does Tarascio describe as one of his proudest business achievements to date? Taking that initial first step. “The ability to convince Hoechst, a large pharmaceutical company I was working with as a sales rep, to trust me to build them a modern warehouse,” Tarascio told The Urban Developer. “Even though I had never built one in my life... It involved persuading the company secretary to put enough faith in me to go out and do it. That was quite a milestone. And the start of my business career.” In the lead up to Urbanity ’19, we caught up with Sam Tarascio on his property development company and what continues to drive the 75-year-old businessman. You can catch him, and a host of other speakers at Urbanity, 23-24 October 2019. The Urban Developer: What is one thing you know for sure? Sam Tarcasio: Opportunities float past us all every day, and so it's just a matter of identifying the opportunity having the skill to be able to see it, latching onto it and take advantage of it. I know that’s for certain it’s just a matter of constantly looking for that elusive inspiration. TUD: And, how does this principle guide you in your approach to business? Recognising that opportunities are endless has created a level of ambition which has seen and continues to
see me take risks and grab opportunities as soon as I identify them. TUD: When you founded Salta Properties in 1972 did you think you’d be where you are today? ST: I don’t think so, no. There's no way you can understand where you’re going to end up, I think what you need is the ambition to be in business and be prepared to tackle any opportunity when it presents itself. In fact, it doesn’t even matter what business you start with. If you’ve got the ambition to be in business, and you're prepared to take the risk, you take hold of the opportunities when you see them, that’s providing that you can identify them. Growth will come naturally if you run your business well. TUD: When you look back on your journey in property, is there one defining moment or experience you recognise as shifting its trajectory? ST: I was a medical rep with Hoechst when I visited their warehouse in Altona, where they manufactured Polypropylene granules in 25-kilogram bags that required large warehouses for storage. Up until that stage, I thought companies like Hoechst owned their own facilities. But their distribution warehouse, to my amazement, was offsite and rented. It was an old asbestos sheet building with poor access and no loading canopies. And it certainly didn’t reflect the image of the multinational company they were. It was at that point I thought the opportunity was there to offer to do something better for them, build something better, new and more functional. I built components of it myself to save money and was determined for it to be a success. It also gave me invaluable knowledge about the process of building a property and leasing it to companies, subsequently capitalising and selling the land and the property and then using the capital to fund my next project. This experience led to my first substantial profit being made after the land and property were sold.
OPINION PIECE
TUD: You’ve demonstrated a diversified approach to business spanning the logistics, commercial, residential and hotel sectors, most memorable project? ST: One of the most outstanding projects, that I continue to work on, is Victoria Gardens Richmond because all the cards were stacked against us. It was a 40,000sqm derelict industrial site only five kilometres from Melbourne CBD, but full of contamination with a large part of the site used as the local tip by people living in the area. The common opinion was it could never be rezoned from its industrial use. The site had various issues; people were shying away from it. But it was probably the best decision I ever made to buy the land, notwithstanding the huge debt I took on. Twenty years on Victoria Gardens is probably the biggest asset that we now have, and it continues to grow in the way we’d envisaged it would. There’s ten years of work left to bring this project to a close. TUD: Darkest moment, or biggest professional struggle? ST: One of the hardest moments was back in 1992 when the banks got into difficulty. All debts were being called in and property values were dropping. So, the loans they had with property developers such as me, or to anybody, for that matter, were being recalled. I went into what they called the ‘resuscitation unit’ of the bank, which was a very difficult situation. That was because you couldn’t talk to anybody one-on-one, there were just systems and procedures that had to be adhered to. That was a very difficult and uncertain time for my business and family. TUD: What’s your view or take on your own urban legacy? ST: I don’t know that I have a specific view. However,
82
one of the creeds I actually live by is that I want to keep developing property that I am happy and excited to go back to, look at and be proud of, rather than a property I just made some money out of. I think that drives the quality of property that we do, compared to those whose focus lies primarily with profit. TUD: What are three key pieces of advice you’ve learned in business that have guided you to where you are today? ST: One. To have the belief that you can you do anything if you put your mind to the task. Two. Be inquisitive and ask questions in the right way. Three. Understand that business is a risk and to be accepting of those risks. Four. Keep a totally open mind that is the only way that you pick up opportunities. TUD: And who are you looking forward to meeting at Urbanity? ST: I’m looking forward to meeting the cross-section of people that will be attending Urbanity generally. I’m not fussed whether they have built the biggest tower in the world or the shortest tower in the world, everyone has an interesting story.
