A $215.5 million Brisbane CBD transaction brokered by JLL marks the return of institutional capital to Brisbane in this market cycle.

JLLā€™s Paul Noonan and Seb Turnbull handled the off-market deal for the high-quality 27-level A-grade tower at 145 Ann Street on behalf of Dexus.

The purchase by Aware Real Estate marked its first acquisition in Queensland.

Mr Noonan, JLLā€™s QLD Managing Director, said the deal underscored a strengthening investor focus on the stateā€™s capital.

ā€œThis acquisition by Aware Real Estate, alongside Navigator Property Group, marks the return of institutional capital to Brisbane in this current cycle,ā€ Mr Noonan said.

ā€œWe continue to see increased focus on the Brisbane market as investors seek the growth prospects our market is predicted to deliver.ā€

The 27,551sqm tower, with proximity to public transport, offers a suite of high-end tenant amenities, including a wellness centre, and boasts significant sustainability credentials.
