Australia is emerging as a safe haven for commercial property investment, with global uncertainty and US tariffs pushing international buyers toward stable markets like ours. 🏢
📈 Key highlights from the latest CBRE data:
• $15.5 billion in commercial property sales in the first half of 2025, a 13% increase year-on-year.
• Industrial property led the charge, up 98%, driven by major portfolio deals.
• Retail assets also performed strongly, with a 29% rise in volume.
• Office sector dipped 11% as pricing expectations between buyers and sellers diverge.
Why the surge?
Australia has remained largely insulated from the tariff-driven inflation impacting much of APAC, making it an appealing choice for investors seeking stability and returns. Falling interest rates and strong fundamentals like population growth, infrastructure investment, and employment are driving demand.
For savvy investors, commercial property in Perth continues to offer long-term value and Vast is here to help you capitalise on it.
