Sale Update: Underdeveloped Industrial Site on Short-Term Leaseback

We’re pleased to share that the team at Muller Commercial has recently completed the successful sale of an underutilised industrial site measuring 4,475m², transacted on a short-term leaseback arrangement.

Principal Thomas Muller said, ‘This sale reinforces an important trend we’re seeing across the industrial property sector: flexibility is key when it comes to maximising value in today’s market.’

By offering this asset with a short leaseback—just under 12 months—we were able to open up the opportunity to a broader buyer pool, including owner-occupiers, investors, developers, and even hybrid buyer types looking for value-add potential. Shorter leases at the point of sale reduce barriers to entry, allowing for more dynamic deal-making and greater competition between prospective purchasers.

At Muller Commercial, we believe that rethinking traditional lease structures and adopting a more agile approach to asset sales can deliver stronger, faster outcomes—particularly in underdeveloped or transitional industrial zones.

This transaction is a strong example of how the right strategy, paired with an in-depth understanding of buyer behaviour, can unlock hidden value.
