Australia's commercial property market showcased a strategic pivot in 2024/25, as investor appetite shifted toward fewer but larger deals, tallying $59.9 billion in total transactions. The volume declined only marginally by 0.3%, but the number of transactions dropped sharply—down 18.5%, revealing a preference for high-value assets.
Ray White Group’s Vanessa Rader attributed this trend to robust institutional and offshore investment, notably from North America and Asia, propelling individual deal sizes upward. Smaller private transactions, in contrast, showed less urgency and moved up in price bracket or declined altogether.
