INVESTMENT SPECIALITY : Repositioning of Retail Real Estate

INVESTMENT SPECIALITY

Elanor’s market-leading capability in originating retail value-add opportunities, and executing the repositioning strategies for these assets, is delivering superior risk-adjusted returns for investors. Elanor has a strong track record of repositioning retail real estate with an average return on realised investments of 25% p.a.

UNIQUE INVESTING METHODOLOGY

Informed by a detailed review of the Australian retail landscape, focusing on non-discretionary, every day needs focused shopping centres.

Prevailing market conditions provide the opportunity for:

  • Proactive and targeted acquisitions of assets which meet strict investment criteria
  • Unlocking the value of high quality real estate, realising its highest and best use
  • Generating outsized risk-adjusted returns

TRACK RECORD

Elanor’s market-leading capability in originating retail value-add opportunities and executing repositioning strategies has delivered an average of 25% p.a. IRR on realised investments.

Riverside Plaza (NSW) and Clifford Gardens (QLD), our most recent retail investments, were acquired at an average capitalisation rate of 7.9%. At these assets, we are introducing new, non-discretionary, everyday needs offerings to significantly improve the defensiveness of the assets’ cash flows. Following the execution of our repositioning strategies, these assets will be well sought after, as evidenced by our recent divestment of Auburn Central (NSW) in December 2020 at a capitalisation rate of 5.75%.

The Fund is forecast to deliver, over the five year hold period, an average distribution yield of 8%+ p.a. and a total return of 12%+ p.a.
