Why a $600m revamp of a Sydney mall makes sense in tough times (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The reason Deborah Coakley, managing director of real estate at QIC, is pressing “go” on a $600 million redevelopment of north-western Sydney shopping mall Castle Towers in the middle of a cost-of-living crunch is both complex and very simple. Yes, Coakley is all too aware of consumer worries with interest rates rising to a 15-year high of 4.6 per cent this week while an inflation jump – on the back of higher building costs and petrol costs – will keep the pressure on the Reserve Bank to conside

Read excerpt
A private equity buyout bid valuing housing provider Ingenia Communities at more than $3 billion, which has been increased twice from the original offer, may still fall short of the mark given the ASX-listed player’s growth potential, say analysts.

The warning lights are still flashing for real estate investment trusts, or REITs as they are known, with more rate rises expected: economists are strongly anticipating that the Reserve Bank board will lift th
Australia’s five most powerful property people in 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Among the forces shaping the property sector over the past year, the most dramatic has been the housing downturn that has sent capital city prices tumbling. Some analysts expect a peak-to-trough correction of 10 per cent nationally, making it one of the most severe in the past 40 years. ANZ estimates that Sydney prices might fall by 14.5 per cent before the slump is done; Melbourne prices could fall by 12.8 per cent.
