The Commercial Advantage | Webinar Replay

Australia's property investment landscape has changed — and for many investors, commercial property is suddenly becoming a much bigger part of the conversation. In this webinar, Hotspotting founder Terry Ryder is joined by Steve Palise, Managing Director of Palise Property, to explore why commercial property may offer investors a compelling alternative in the new investment environment. Steve explains why commercial is increasingly shifting from an "exit strategy" for experienced residential investors to something investors are considering much earlier in their journey. They discuss: Why recent policy and lending changes have increased interest in commercial property The role commercial property can play within an SMSF strategy Commercial vs residential borrowing capacity Why commercial can potentially deliver significantly stronger cash flow Net yields and how tenant-paid outgoings work The importance of lease structure and tenant quality Industrial, retail, office, medical and other commercial property types Why Steve heavily favours industrial property Metropolitan vs regional commercial opportunities Capital growth potential in commercial property Vacancy risk and how experienced investors assess it The extensive due diligence required before buying Commercial property management and re-leasing costs How to match the type of commercial property you buy to your own risk profile, budget and investment goals Steve also shares examples from his own portfolio and experience across more than 2,000 property acquisitions, including how transitioning from residential into commercial helped him build a substantial passive income stream. One of the biggest messages from the session: commercial property can offer significant opportunities, but it is not an asset class where investors should generalise or chase yield blindly. Every property, tenant, lease and location needs to be assessed on its individual merits.
