One of Perth’s largest specialist laboratory facilities listed for sale

18 July 2023

A fully leased laboratory and specialist healthcare facility in Perth’s most tightly held healthcare precinct has been listed for sale.

Located at 100 Roberts Road, the 5,875sqm facility is 86% occupied by a single, AAA-rated government tenant on a lease expiring in 2029.

CBRE’s Derek Barlow and Aaron Desange are managing the sale via an Offers Invited campaign closing Wednesday 9th August.

“This is the most significant healthcare asset to be offered to the Perth market in recent times. Medical and Life Sciences assets of this scale are rarely offered for sale and we expect a high level of interest from a range of investors seeking exposure to this asset class,” Mr Barlow said. 

“The long-term prospects for life sciences property investments are strong, with the trajectory of medical innovation and behavioural changes at a societal level supporting the growth of the asset class, with the considerable replacement cost for these facilities likely to see the current constraints on supply continue.”

Mr Desange added, “The healthcare real estate investment market has proven itself to be very strong, even against the backdrop of challenges faced in recent years. The sector’s defensive income streams and non-cyclical nature continue to drive a significant amount of capital into this space.”

“The opportunity to acquire a substantial and strategically located life sciences asset is anticipated to resonate strongly with institutional investors, syndicators and private investors, across both domestic and offshore markets.”
