The world's largest manager of real estate Blackstone is selling a tranche of logistics properties along the eastern seaboard of Australia for about $200 million.
Singapore's ARA Asset Management, which this year snapped up an A-grade office tower at 320 Pitt Street in Sydney's CBD for $275 million, is in due diligence to buy Blackstone's collection of 10 industrial properties.
Wood products group Carter Holt Harvey and logistics heavyweight DHL are among the biggest tenants that occupy the properties, spread from Kings Park in Sydney to Braeside in Melbourne's south-east.
The property portfolio has a weighted average lease expiry of more than five years.
The deal is in its final stages and is understood to be nearing a yield of 6.3 per cent.
Colliers International's national director for industrial real estate Tony Iliuano negotiated the deal but was unavailable for comment.
The deal represents Blackstone's classic asset recycling strategy of buy, fix sell. It has been a major buyer of industrial and logistics properties in Australia for several years now.
Last year the private equity giant finalised a much-anticipated deal to acquire a $640 million portfolio of industrial properties from the listed player Goodman Group.
It then further increased its exposure to the Australian property market with the acquisition of four industrial assets for $126 million from the Charter Hall Prime Industrial Fund (CPIF) and the Core Logistics Partnership (CLP).
That price reflected a premium to book value and an equated capitalisation rate of 6.98 per cent.
Blackstone has been a keen buyer of logistics around the world and in an exclusive interview with The Australian Financial Review last month Blackstone's head of real estate, Jon Gray, said the group wanted more logistics property.
Since selling its logistics property group IndCor to a venture between GLP and Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC for $US8.1 billion, Blackstone has gone back into the US logistics property market and bought up.
And since agreeing to sell European warehouse firm Logicor to China Investment Corporation (CIC) for €12.25 billion ($24.7 billion), Mr Gray said Blackstone was again on the hunt for logistics property in Europe that it could carry out its classic strategy of "buy it, fix it, sell it".
