Varsity Lakes Investment Asset

The asset was tired and required capital expenditure. A short remaining lease impacted financeability, narrowing the buyer pool. Confidentiality was essential, and a traditional marketing campaign was unlikely to deliver premium pricing for a property in this condition.

We positioned the asset for a cash-buyer strategy, framing the narrative around value rather than perceived risk. A specialist agent with an existing cash-buyer network was engaged to access non-bank capital, and a curated buyer universe was approached directly. Competitive tension was generated entirely off-market, with premium positioning maintained throughout the process.

A successful off-market sale at above-market pricing, executed on the vendor’s timeline with zero marketing spend. A record yield was achieved against precedent transactions in the precinct.
