More than $70 million worth of healthcare, childcare and seniors living assets hit the market for the summer break

CBRE’s Australian Healthcare and Social Infrastructure team have launched their summer spotlight portfolio with close to $70 million worth of opportunities across vacant and leased investments and going-concern seniors living portfolios.

Now in its eighth year, the team of Sandro Peluso, Marcello Caspani-Muto, Jimmy Tat and Kai Wang have five separate forthcoming investment opportunities, all of which are expected to close in February of 2025 if not sold prior.

Mr Peluso noted there was always significant buyer interest across the Christmas period, with many investors having more time to pursue opportunities.

“We have been running this process for over eight years now and it is unquestionably the best time for exposure in the commercial real estate environment. The increased level of exposure and traction received with opportunities in market is significant,” Mr Peluso said.

“This year we are offering one of the most diverse portfolios we have seen with all opportunities offered for sale individually across vacant and leased offerings to business sales,” he added.

Mr Caspani-Muto said, “We’ve had success with this process in all types of markets and we see every year people who would otherwise be busy with work and family commitments during the year pick up their phones during their downtime over the summer and start reviewing investment opportunities.

“Over the summer, both agent and buyer have more time to review assets in detail and have quality discussions and inspections. In some cases, properties are sold prior to their formal close dates over the Christmas and New Year window,” he added.
