Logistics and Industrial deal sizes surge as investment market recovers - Cushman & Wakefield
After a prolonged period of pricing dislocation, Australia’s logistics and industrial (L&I) investment market is showing robust signs of recovery, says Chris Jones, Cushman & Wakefield’s National Director.
With year-to-date transaction volumes and deal values well outstripping the same period last year, it indicates growing confidence among both more dominant domestic, private investors and global investors looking to re-enter the market.
Chris Jones, Cushman & Wakefield’s National Director, Capital Markets Logistics & Industrial – ANZ, attributes this resurgence to a combination of macro factors and investor confidence: “We’ve seen L&I investment volumes bottom out globally and have recorded a material uptick in transaction activity over the past quarter.
“In Australia, more certainty around the direction of interest rates is supporting investor confidence and larger asset acquisitions are back on the table. That’s best illustrated by average deal sizes jumping 28% in 2024.”
Charlie Holmes, Cushman & Wakefield’s Associate Director, Capital Markets Logistics & Industrial – VIC, notes the growing role of superannuation funds and private investment groups in shaping the sector’s capital flows.
“Meanwhile, private capital and family offices, which historically operated in the sub-$30 million bracket, are now scaling up. We’ve seen multiple acquisitions above $80 million from these groups—a sign of their increasing willingness to take on larger, more strategic assets.” He added.
