The interest rate hiking cycle has
peaked with inflationary pressures
easing.
Industrial property is positioned to
benefit from an easing monetary cycle.
PFI is strongly positioned to capitalise
on its development pipeline of ~$388M.
Attractive returns can be generated by
leveraging PFI’s development expertise
and experienced team.
Despite recent property sector
headwinds, underlying fundamentals of
industrial property remain sound:
vacancy remains low and reduced new
supply is expected to come to market.
PFI’s portfolio under-renting of ~16%
provides embedded growth.
