Each case study below examines an actual asset mandate, documenting the complex fiduciary challenges faced, the precise legal and financial structuring deployed, and the tangible, verifiable investment outcomes delivered to our wholesale capital partners.
A prime 38,400 sqm gross lettable area (GLA) intermodal distribution center set across a 7.2-hectare industrial landholding. Positioned adjacent to the Western Ring Road freight corridor, the property serves as the primary national distribution hub for an ASX-listed supply chain provider on an initial 10-year Triple-Net lease with fixed annual CPI indexation.
The acquisition involved navigating the newly introduced Victorian Windfall Gains Tax (WGT) liabilities during site rezoning, extensive geotechnical environmental clearances for heavy automated container handling, and complex multi-jurisdictional Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) approvals for an offshore syndicate consortium.
ASSET PACIFIC established a dedicated bankruptcy-remote Australian Unit Trust (AUT) qualifying as a Managed Investment Trust (MIT), capping foreign investor withholding tax at 15%. We negotiated a bespoke 10-year Triple-Net lease transferring 100% of municipal rates, building insurance, and structural maintenance outgoings to the tenant. Acquisition debt was locked with a Big-Four Australian bank at a conservative 42% LVR with full interest-rate hedging.
Underwritten with an institutional Triple-Net (NNN) lease to an ASX-listed national freight logistics tenant. Achieved a 5.5-Star NABERS Energy rating through an on-site 850kW solar array, driving an independent RICS Net Tangible Asset (NTA) valuation uplift of 24.5% (from $55.0M to $68.5M) within 36 months of acquisition.
A specialized 6,800 sqm net lettable area multi-disciplinary medical facility housing comprehensive pathology laboratories, day-surgery suites, and diagnostic radiology infrastructure directly opposite Melbourne's premier hospital cluster. Fully occupied by accredited healthcare institutions with a weighted average lease expiry of 11.5 years.
The property required intricate architectural compliance for cleanrooms, lead-lined radiation shielding, and high-voltage backup generators within a stringent city-fringe heritage overlay. The multi-tenant structure presented complex co-tenancy friction and risk of cross-tenant infection control disputes.
Structured an institutional syndication SPV with segregated lease covenants for clinical versus administrative zones. Negotiated 12-month gross rental bank guarantees from institutional operators and drafted long-term clinical maintenance agreements amortizing hospital-grade ventilation retrofits directly through tenant leases.
Maintained 100% occupancy with zero tenant turnover throughout macroeconomic volatility. Generates an annual net cash dividend of 6.95% p.a. paid quarterly. Independent valuation increased from $37.0M at acquisition to $44.2M (+19.4%), solidifying its defensive cornerstone status in the portfolio.
A complex balance sheet restructuring and senior debt syndication for an established commercial office asset in the core of Collins Street. Facing impending debt maturities during a rising rate cycle, the existing holding vehicle required complete capital reconstitution.
Navigating acute interest rate hedging expirations, senior debt refinancing friction under tightened APRA liquidity covenants, and restructuring mezzanine debt without triggering tax crystallization liabilities under Victorian stamp duty legislation.
ASSET PACIFIC syndicated a bilateral AUD $48.0M senior debt facility with a premier Australian domestic bank, securing favorable 4.85% fixed borrowing terms. Concurrently, we injected $16.5M in wholesale equity via a bankruptcy-remote unit trust structure, eliminating high-cost secondary debt.
Reduced weighted average cost of debt by 190 basis points, expanding annual net free cash flow by AUD $1.15M. Protected equity valuations and preserved 100% tenant continuity across institutional legal and banking tenancies.
A modern 21,500 sqm high-clearance manufacturing and distribution facility located in Melbourne's preeminent south-eastern industrial precinct. Leased to a national industrial manufacturing group on an unexpired 8-year term with annual 3.50% compound rental escalations.
Structuring an offshore cross-border syndication during an era of fluctuating currency exchange rates and ensuring full Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) compliance without exposing offshore unit holders to excessive withholding taxes.
Implemented an Australian Managed Investment Trust (MIT) structure, securing the concessional 15% withholding rate for Singaporean and European family office co-investors. Deployed a back-to-back cross-currency swap to immunize debt servicing from foreign exchange volatility.
Underwritten with a 15-year master healthcare covenant and annual CPI rental indexation. Achieved an independent valuation gain of 21.0% in 28 months, driven by severe land scarcity in the Dandenong South industrial cluster.
