30-32 Raymond Avenue, Matraville

Link Property Services were appointed on the sale of a 1,634 sq m vacant site at 30-32 Raymond Ave Matraville.

We immediately canvassed the adjoining owner, who was Melbourne based, to advise of the opportunity and we subsequently negotiated the sale of the vacant site to them.

As a result of the site consolidation, the owner was able to design two adjoining office/warehouse buildings of 2,053 sqm & 1,249 sqm respectively , and secure a pre-commitment for the site.  Link Property Services were then appointed as property managers over the development.

Leading up to the initial tenant’s expiry, Link was engaged to market the property for lease which led to a 10 year lease of the entire property to international freight & logistic business Austway Express.

After securing the long term commitment, the vendor made the decision to sell the properties and appointed Link Property Services as their exclusive sale agents. The EOI campaign offered the properties to market either in one-line or as separate free standing properties. The campaign generated  a strong level of interest and the development was sold in one-line to a private investor at the completion of the EOI campaign.

Link Property Services were then re-appointed as their managing agents and after this extraordinary full agency undertaking continue to manage both properties today.

2 kellogg road, glendenning

Property Overview: 2 Kellogg Road, Glendenning, is a high-profile industrial property comprising a circa 5,000 sqm building on a substantial 15,540 sqm landholding. Positioned at the gateway entrance to the key industrial hub of Glendenning and benefiting from prime exposure to the M7 Motorway, the site presents a strategic and sought-after industrial asset.

Client Challenge: The owner, a long-term investor, had been engaged in negotiations with their sitting tenant, who had expressed interest in acquiring the property. However, the parties were unable to reach agreeable terms. Uncertain about whether to sell or lease the premises, the owner sought to secure a favourable outcome either way. Complicating the decision was the tenant’s recent acquisition of another property within 10 km, raising the prospect of their relocation upon lease expiry in six months.

Link Property Services’ Approach: Having advised the owner over several years on market trends and industrial property dynamics, Link Property Services was appointed to list the property for sale. Through a targeted marketing campaign and a competitive negotiation process, we attracted multiple offers, including one from the sitting tenant.

While the property ultimately was not sold to the tenant, the sales campaign uncovered critical insights: the tenant’s true preference was to remain in the property, despite their prior property purchase. The high costs associated with relocating their manufacturing business significantly influenced their decision.

Successful Outcome: As a testament to our successful execution, Link Property Services was subsequently entrusted with the ongoing property management of the asset, further solidifying our long-term partnership with the owner.

Key Takeaways:

• Expert advisory and market knowledge positioned our client to make informed decisions.
• A competitive sale campaign provided valuable leverage in lease negotiations.
• Understanding tenant motivations led to a mutually beneficial leasing arrangement.
• Link Property Services delivered a comprehensive solution, from strategy to leasing and ongoing management.

This case study exemplifies our ability to listen to our clients’ needs, develop tailored strategies, and facilitate successful negotiations—ultimately achieving outstanding results where direct negotiations between the parties had previously failed.
