Australian shopping centre owner Vicinity Centres has sold an asset in Perth funds management company Realside Property for A$107m (€67m).
The Maddington Central in Western Australia generates an annual turnover of A$208.7m.
Linda Rudd, Realside’s CEO, said the Maddington Central is “our first retail acquisition and has created a key opportunity to diversify and expand on our existing office and industrial portfolio�.
“Realside will work with Sirona Urban, who are appointed as asset and development manager, to assist in delivering our vision for the property to unlock a revitalised retail and community precinct,� Rudd added.
Simon Rooney, ’s head of retail capital markets – Pacific, who handled the sale, said the West Australian retail market continued to be a focus for investors because of the state’s solid economic fundamentals, which had translated into robust retail asset performance.

Rooney said Maddington offered significant mixed-use development potential for the site, subject to the relevant approvals given the under-utilised 13-plus hectare landholding including an adjoining separately titled vacant land component.
