Colliers secures benchmark off-market transaction highlighting surging investor demand for Brisbane industrial assets
A private local investor has paid $34 million for the acquisition of 67-77 Trade Street, Lytton, reflecting a strong 4.79 per cent yield in a market-defining transaction for Brisbane’s industrial sector.
The benchmark off-market deal was brokered by Colliers industrial experts James Wilkie, Trent Gallagher and Angus Yule, leveraging deep capital networks to connect a highly aligned buyer with the asset.
Located at 67–77 Trade Street, Lytton, the property transacted as a leased investment with a long-term WALE of 6.8 years and a net passing income of $1.62 million, underpinned by a strong covenant and secure income profile.
Colliers Industrial and Logistics Associate Director James Wilkie said the result highlights the depth of demand for premium TradeCoast assets and the importance of precise market execution.
“We saw strong results across Brisbane’s industrial market throughout 2025, and that momentum has carried decisively into 2026 as demonstrated by this deal,” James Wilkie said.
“By leveraging our capital networks and working closely with both parties, we were able to align the purchaser’s investment objectives with the vendor’s strategic requirements and deliver a seamless outcome in a competitive environment.
“With limited new supply and ongoing tenant demand, well-located, high-quality assets, particularly within the TradeCoast, are being secured quickly, often off-market.”
Situated on a 21,600sqm General Industry C-zoned site with a total building area of 8,568sqm, the property features a highly efficient 39.7 per cent site cover.
Colliers Industrial and Logistics National Director Trent Gallagher said the transaction reflects a structural shift in investor focus toward Queensland.
“Queensland is no longer a secondary option to Sydney and Melbourne, it is firmly on the radar of institutional investors and increasingly a preferred destination for capital,” Trent Gallagher said.
“The Olympics are acting as a catalyst, accelerating investment in transport, logistics and broader economic capacity, with businesses moving early to secure strategic positions ahead of forecast growth.”
Colliers Industrial and Logistics Manager Angus Yule said Brisbane’s industrial market delivered its strongest year on record in 2025.
“In 2025, investment volumes almost doubled Brisbane’s 10-year annual average, positioning the Queensland capital as one of the nation’s most dynamic commercial property markets,” Angue Yule said.
“Transaction volumes climbed 170 per cent year-on-year, with Brisbane leading the nation in both the number of deals and the volume of development and opportunistic sales.”
Strategically located within Brisbane’s TradeCoast precinct, the estate offers direct access to major arterial road networks as well as proximity to the Port of Brisbane and Brisbane Airport, reinforcing its appeal to both tenants and investors seeking high-quality, well-connected industrial assets.
