Wee Hur sets up fund for new Adelaide student housing project

It is seeking a special tax status in Australia by becoming a 'managed investment trust.’

Wee Hur Holdings has established Wee Hur PBSA Fund III A (WHF3A) for the new purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) development at Grenfell Street, Adelaide.

The total amount agreed to be paid by the holders of the fund in respect of the sponsor is no less than $10.6m (AUD12.6m).

WHF3A is seeking a special tax status in Australia by becoming a 'managed investment trust' through a private placement.

Additionally, Wee Hur has announced that it has proposed the disposal of its stake in the Grenfell Property in preparation for it to be developed into a PBSA.

Wee Hur currently holds an 80% interest in the property, and following the disposal, will retain an indirect 20% stake.

The consideration for the disposal to be received by Wee Hur is $14.23m, and the estimated gain on the disposal is about $4.7m.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
