Retail property investment sales jump five-fold to $0.6b in Q3

The surge was bolstered by two mega deals worth over $100m a piece.

Retail property investment sales jumped five-fold in the third quarter, registering around $0.6b worth of deals.

The surge was bolstered by two mega deals worth over $100m a piece.

These deals were Lendlease Global Commercial REIT's acquisition of 31.8% stake in Jem mall for $337m and the sale of Le Quest Mall to Firmus Capital for #139m.

Cushman & Wakefield said suburban malls like Le Quest which can offer delivery and click-and-collect services are "still on the radar of investors."

"Amid the challenging retail scene due to the pandemic and e-commerce boom, investors can keep a lookout for short-term repricing opportunities in retail assets especially those in the CBD (central business district)," Shaun Poh, Executive Director and Head of Capital Markets at Cushman & Wakefield, said.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
