Approaching our eighth year in business with our 40th Magazine issue, I’ve reflected on our group’s inception and the philosophy which has guided our growth to-date. Initially, as investors in the property industry, the founders of Ready Media identified an opportunity to establish a dedicated digital platform that seamlessly connected property developers with vendors. The foundation of Development Ready, our online platform launched in 2015, disrupted the digital property market status-quo. It provided a unique alternative for real estate agencies to exclusively target property investors and developers. Development Ready and Commercial Ready has increasingly became powerful lead-generating portals. Fast forward to 2023 and Development Ready is proudly a standalone as Australia’s only dedicated development site portal, led by the most experienced commercial real estate account management team in the industry. By actively listening to the feedback provided by our valued partners, the Ready Media Group has expanded rapidly, adding CommercialReady, a digital portal focusing on tenanted property investments for sale. In addition, Ready Media Creative - our full service property marketing division led by a team of creative specialists has grown exponentially. Furthermore, we have added a number of new Agent and Investor related products including InstaDocs, District Data, Ready Capital, and Ready Pay. As we celebrate the past eight years in business, we eagerly anticipate upcoming opportunities and challenges. I’d like to take this opportunity to extend our gratitude to our multitude of agency clients for their support, our considerable developer and investor audience for consistently engaging with our platforms and our dedicated Ready Media teams Australia-wide. This issue of The Property Development Review continues with our exclusive interview series featuring both Australian and international business figures, from a diverse cross-section of sectors including property investment and development, high-net-worth family office and private equity.

Over the course of the next fifteen or so years, Robert worked briefly as a stockbroker for a period of two years, before returning to his father Tom’s family farm in Cowra and spending the next thirteen or so years working the land prior to joining the family business, Soul Patt’s as a director in 1984 - a business he has been intimately involved in through a number of Board positions ever since. Our exclusive feature profile of Robert unpacks his upbringing, the evolution of the Washington H. Soul Pattinson business, his investment philosophy, the macro-trends that drive markets and the fundamentals required for sustainable success on both a personal & professional level.

The results
“Burgess Rawson has been incredibly impressed with both the quality and volume of enquiry generated from CommercialReady for our investment portfolio listings. We are seeing new enquiry and high-intent investors coming off your platforms and the ability to target investors at both a state and national level is delivering us really high-value leads.” Shaun Venables, Partner “We have used the CommercialReady platform on almost every i nvestment campaign we launched in the last 2 years. It has exposed our listings to a national audience of buyers we have not previously dealt with and many campaigns have resulted in our team securing buyers and registered bidders.” Jared Johnson and Lachlan Marshall, Directors “We pay close attention and track closely the platforms we use during a marketing campaign and CommercialReady continues to deliver high-quality and unique enquires, that reiterates to us and to our clients that we are getting ‘bang for our buck’.” Lachlan O’Keeffe, Director - Retail Investment Sales “CommercialReady forms a vital part of our marketing of any investment opportunity. Given our clients are so time poor, being able to align with CommercialReady allows us to directly reach buyers via their targeted portal on multiple occasions throughout a campaign. This is critical for us in listing presentations, to be able to articulate to our vendors that gaining cut-through with potential buyers and being in front of them on multiple occasion is critical to a successful outcome.” James Thorpe, Director - Investment Sales

NSW MARKET OVERVIEW
NEW SOUTH WALES
NSW Market Overview with Elijah Shakir Reflecting on 2022, what were some of the prevailing trends that you noticed and how did they play out in the market? The industrial market had a substantial
decisions based on expansion or contraction, some traditional leasing occupiers are considering shifting to owner occupation due to rising rental cost which should see land values stabilize in 2023. Some recent owner occupier transactions are well above cap rate levels so if any property appeals to these groups due to certain infrastructure such as power and location the owner occupiers are proving hard to beat. What market sectors do you anticipate being most in demand over the next six months? We will continue to see strong demand from e-commerce, 3PL, Transport, Food and beverage however there is also a resurgence of manufacturing enquiry which has potential to deliver some large requirements in the next 24 months. Do you feel that associated factors like building costs, supply-chain challenges and market sentiment will improve for developers over the next 6-12 months? For instance, have building costs already peaked? I’m of the opinion that building costs have peaked however unlikely to reverse, what we should see is more competition from builders in some sectors due to project completion and an increased appetite for future development.
change in Western Sydney across 2022. We saw rental growth between 30-40% y-o-y in some sub markets due to unforeseen vacancy levels across the board in NSW. Investment sentiment was strong in the H1/22 however prevailing market conditions such as interest rates increasing saw a shift in investment and transaction volumes over the second half of 2022 which lead to cap rates softening from an investment point of view and land values stabilize in the latter half of the year. Market-wise, what are you forecasting in the first half of 2023 and how will increased lending costs impact the various markets? The rising rate of rental growth should outweigh softening cap rates in my opinion. We have seen some larger institutions sit on the side lines in recent campaigns due to the increasing cost of debt which has led to an increased appetite from high net worth privates and syndicators so the buyer pool has changed slightly. There is still strong demand from owner occupiers who continue to make business

THE PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
Supply chain & container traffic through the ports will be opening up and likely to lead to lower supply costs. What are some of the most significant or rewarding projects that the team have been involved in and why? There have been a number of new projects and appointments that the team have been involved in recently. Villawood Logistics Estate on behalf of Logos, was a major speculative leasing project in western Sydney that commenced during lockdowns and completed with full occupation prior to PC. Light horse Interchange is a recent appointment on behalf of Charter Hall which will see a premium estate being developed in arguably the best location in western Sydney. What advice do you have for any prospective developers in the current climate? Three trends we are seeing that will allow developers to achieve great results in the industrial market: 1. Speculative development will continue to achieve the strongest rental returns 2. Fight to quality and local amenity will continue to attract occupiers 3. Involving occupiers at an early stage
to integrate fitout and automation and machinery How have your marketing strategies changed, if at all, over the past 12 months? We are more reliant on data prior to listing and working on deals, owners want it, occupiers want it and it is assisting us during negotiation stages. The industrial market is much more sophisticated with owners and tenants partnering with agents well before a potential listing hits the market. It is important to have our marketing strategy in place at an early stage and that can involve a market sounding prior to listing.
