Site and scheme
Corner site fronting two streets, mixed-use zoning, 5 levels — ground floor retail, 4 levels of apartments. 32 apartments (mix of 1-bed and 2-bed), 4 retail tenancies (avg 162 m² NLA).
Revenue
Apartments sold individually for $31.2M GRV. Retail valued on a 6.25% cap rate against a $525k stabilised net income — capitalised to $8.4M and sold as a single asset on completion.
Result
Profit on cost 11.8% — softer than a pure residential scheme of the same size, but the retail income provides longer-term value to a held strategy. A second scenario holding the retail and selling the apartments lifts equity IRR if the hold horizon supports it.
