Introduction
Despite the widely-reported contracting resources sector the Western Australian economy
continues to perform strongly. Growth in WA’s gross state product has consistently
outperformed the Australian GDP, and with the exception of 2015/16 where state and
national forecasts are on par, WA is anticipated to continue to have higher percentage
growth than GDP through to 2016/17. And news in the mining sector is not all bad; in the
six months to April 2014 six projects in WA worth a combined $11.97 billion were
progressed to the Committed Stage on the Bureau of Resources and Energy Economics
(BREE) major projects list, the largest of which being Hancock Prospecting’s Roy Hill mine
at $10.70 billion in value. It is anticipated that the majority of these committed projects will
move into the operations phase by the 2018/19 financial year.
Western Australia also continues to have strong market fundamentals with the highest
population growth in the country (2.5 percent to Australia’s 1.7 percent), and the second
lowest unemployment rate behind the Northern Territory (4.8 percent to Australia’s 6.0
percent. Perth’s population growth is predicted to remain robust, with the city’s population
forecast to overtake that of Brisbane within the next 15 years to become Australia’s third
largest city. In recent years Perth has seen the commitment by the WA State Government to
a number of infrastructure projects around the city; the new Elizabeth Quay development
and the Perth City Link have added further momentum to the Perth market, as well as the
Gateway WA Perth Airport and Freight Access project, and the Perth-Darwin Highway. The
volume of new development and infrastructure projects underway shows that Perth is well
on the way to becoming a true international city, right on the doorstep to Asia.
The top sale in
the past 12
months was the
$70.50m sale of
2 Bannister Rd in
Canning Vale

Industrial leasing activity over the previous year has been rather subdued compared with
historical levels; 143,877 square metres of industrial space was recorded leased in the 12
months to September 2014 in the Perth metropolitan area. Sales for the period for also
below historical levels, with $435 million worth of transactions recorded for the period.

Infrastructure
Whilst Western Australia’s economy has contracted in reaction to the slowing of the mining
boom it remains strong on a national level, and regional and metropolitan development in
WA is continuing to support this. Within metropolitan Perth, a number of key projects are
also active, such as the Perth Airport Redevelopment project, the Perth City Link project
and the Elizabeth Quay project. These projects all aim to support future population growth
and development of the city. Another significant infrastructure project in the pipeline is the
proposed Perth-Darwin Highway. Once this project goes ahead it will open up a whole new
industrial precinct through the Bullsbrook area, which is likely to be favoured by transport
and logistics companies. The other infrastructure project significant to the industrial sector
is the $1 billion Gateway WA Perth Airport and Freight Access Project, currently under
construction and due for completion in 2017.

Leasing Activity
The total level of vacant space in
the industrial sector has been
increasing over the past 12
months. The weak level of tenant
enquiry is likely related to the
slowing of the resources sector,
directly affecting the space needs
of a number of industrial
companies.
September 2014. This is down on
the year prior (410,897 square
metres) and down on the five year
average (382,675 square metres).
The number of leases transacted
in the 12 months to September
2014 totalled 39. By comparison
the 12 months to September 2013
recorded a total of 92 reported
leases.
Savills identified approximately
143,877 square metres of
industrial accommodation leased
in Perth in the 12 months to
'Direct' leases accounted for the
majority of reported industrial
transactions over the period;
79,783 square metres or 55
percent.
The ‘Wholesale’ industry leased
the most industrial
accommodation, taking 69,414
square metres or 50 percent of
reported leasing activity.

over the third quarter of 2014 are

Prime industrial rents as at September 2014 typically range from $85 to $115 per square
metre per annum net for industrial buildings in the North, and between $70 and $105 per
square metre per annum net for industrial buildings in the South. The average rent in the
North is $100 per square metre per annum net, a 13 percent fall over the year. Secondary
industrial rents over the period typically range from $65 to $85 per square metre per annum
net for industrial buildings in the North, and between $60 and $80 per square metre per
annum net for industrial buildings in the South. The average rent in the North is $75 per
square metre per annum net, a 23 percent fall over the year.
Looking forward it is likely that the industrial leasing market will soften further as firms
continue to display caution and as more supply is made available to the market.

Sales Activity
Industrial sales were hit hard in the wake of the Global Financial Crisis, but then picked up
in response to the state’s mining boom. As the resources sector in the state softens and a
number of projects move from the ‘construction’ to ‘production’ phases of their lifecycle,
industrial sales activity has come off accordingly.
Savills recorded approximately $435 million worth of reported industrial property
transactions in the 12 months to September 2014, down from $818 million in the previous
year, and down on the five year average ($626m). In the 12 months to September 2014, 58
properties were sold, down from the previous 12 months total of 212, and down on the five
year average of 135.

Savills Research | Perth Industrial
October 2014
Outlook
The total amount of available industrial stock in the Perth metropolitan region has continued on
its upward trajectory over the first three quarters of 2014. This has led to further increases in
vacancy levels, falling face rents and rising incentives; with the level of deals being done being
at the lowest level seen over the past decade. Despite this subdued leasing market Savills
expect the level of enquiry to pick up over the coming years, due to a significant number of
leases reaching expiration over the period. Tenants may choose to take advantage of the
comparatively lower rents and higher incentives to upgrade their current industrial
accommodation.
Sales levels in the 12 months to September 2014 were at the lowest level seen since postGFC; however the shortage of larger-sized, well located industrial lots seem to indicate that
demand for this asset class is likely to outpace supply. Some relief to this limited space may
come from larger scale developments in areas such as Perth Airport and Jandakot Airport, as
well as in less central locations such as Hazelmere and Forrestfield to the East and Neerabup
and Bullsbrook to the North; Bullsbrook is beginning to emerge as a future industrial hotspot,
especially for large transportation and logistics firms.
Leasing and sales enquiries for prime quality properties with warehouses, excess lay down
areas and/or gantry cranes installed are likely to continue to be relatively strong, while
secondary grade properties in fringe locations are more likely to continue to struggle to
generate interest.
