Mining-services tailwind drives Perth industrial
Perth industrial — particularly the Kwinana/Henderson southern corridor and the Welshpool/Forrestfield eastern corridor — has been the standout performer in WA commercial through 2024–25. Strong demand from mining-services operators (fabrication, machinery, logistics, FIFO support services) has tightened vacancy and lifted net face rents 30–45% over three years. Banks are actively competing for tenanted and owner-occupied industrial in these precincts at policy-maximum LVRs (70%) and sharpest pricing.
Perth CBD office is a two-tier market
Premium-grade Perth CBD office occupied by the major resources companies, banks and government agencies remains tightly held with strong covenants — well-funded by banks. Secondary B and C-grade CBD stock has elevated vacancy and trades at material discounts. Bank appetite for the secondary segment is materially weaker than for prime; deals require careful narrative around tenant retention and any value-add strategy.
Suburban office and medical perform well
Joondalup, Cockburn, Booragoon and the established suburban office spines support consistent bank demand. Medical-fronted commercial in particular has strong lender appetite, with the WA Government's elevated healthcare spend providing a tailwind. Childcare across the metropolitan area is well-supported, with operator demand outstripping new supply in many catchments.
