Wow- its a new building and getting 6.8% yield
Reply
Hotel Grand Central's three investment properties (two in Wellington and one in Melbourne) provided a combined net rental yield of 6.5% in 2016:


....................................$m
Rentals.......................9.54
Expenses...................1.75
Net rentals.................7.79
Value (year-end)....120.78

Net yield....................6.5%

The net yield is similar to the 6.8% from the newly-acquired PWC Centre in Christchurch.

In 1Q 17, the newly-completed $88m Grand Central Building in Christchurch started receiving tenants, collecting $ 1.14m in rentals.

Grand Central Building has 12,594 sq m of office space in five levels and 1,438 sq m of retail space on the ground floor. It was to replace the old hotel damaged by earthquake.

New structures in Christchurch are built to withstand strong tremors. A good part of the construction cost of Grand central Building came from additional insurance payout for income losses in three years.    

The building was barely occupied in 1Q 17, based on the article dated 17 Jan 2017 surfaced by KBL: 

"The Immigration Department would be the first tenant, to be followed, within weeks, by the Ministry of Social Development and Department of Conservation, then joined by private office tenants, fashion stores, and a cafe; and 

A yet-identified international-brand fashion store will open on the ground floor about March. Negotiations are underway with other fashion-type tenants and a cafe to fill the other shops, and with professional firms for the remaining two office floors."

With higher occupancy, annual rentals from Grand Central Building will be substantially higher $4.56m, being four times 1Q rental of $1.14m.

**In Cavenagh Road, JLL is handling the sale of Hotel Chancellor@Orchard, which is being marketed at S$900,000 per key. The property, which has 60 years left on its site, opened barely three years ago and is owned by the listed Hotel Grand Central. It is being offered for sale with vacant possession of brand and management. This means the buyer can rebrand and reposition the asset.**
