QualitY Real estate OppORtunitY

tHe OppORtunitY
the australian economy is characterised by strong economic growth from mining, agriculture and tourism. it has the world’s most transparent real estate market1 with positive fundamentals driven by population growth and economic development. there is an acute shortage of real estate development capital in the australian market. Whilst australia is the only Western economy not to have had a recession during the Global Financial crisis of 20082010, the foreign banks which were active lenders in the australian market have curtailed their australian lending operations. Furthermore, the four major commercial banks in australia have tightened their lending policies significantly. Whilst large developers can fund their own projects, investment opportunities in projects under $50 million (traditionally undertaken by smaller developers) have become available due to the prevailing shortage of development capital. these factors combine to create a unique investment opportunity to generate abnormally high investment returns.

shortfall in supply

(continued)

there is strong demand for residential land, houses and home units. the demand for completed residential property is very strong. Both owner/occupier and private investors are active in most australian residential markets and first mortgage finance is available for home buyers. Whilst recent interest rate rises in australia have tempered residential demand, the underlying shortfall in supply prevails. this prevailing shortfall in supply is due to the lack of development projects undertaken in the last two years. Furthermore, supply is not improving as banks seek to limit their real estate lending exposures outside of residential mortgage lending. the graph below shows the significant forecasted shortage for property on australia’s eastern seaboard.

lack of Competitive lending
australia’s four major commercial banks have come through the Global Financial crisis of 2008-2010 in an exceptionally strong fiscal position. aPra, the australian banking regulator, has enforced tight controls over lending policies, in particular with regard to bank lending for real estate (and especially real estate development projects). also, the european, american, south african and asian banks that were active in the australian market before the GFc have largely closed their lending operations in australia.

Major funding gaps: 1. tightened lending criteria; lvrs substantially reduced 2. mezzanine debt has largely disappeared and is very expensive 3. developers’ new projects have been restricted by prevailing bank lending policies

Opportunities are in the small to medium size segment
large property developers are readily able to access bank funding, but smaller developers do not have such access to debt facilities. investment opportunities in development projects with a value of less than $50 million (which do not appeal to the large development companies) have emerged as smaller developers experience difficulty in obtaining finance. these factors combine to present an opportunity to exploit the current market dislocation caused by the current lack of debt finance.

the Opportunity is now
Prevailing australian credit market dynamics present a compelling window of opportunity for the establishment of this Fund. Both developers and financiers believe that access to development capital for real estate projects will not improve in the short term. the chart below indicates that the majority of developers and financiers believe credit restrictions will not ease within the next 18 to 24 months. approximately 20% believe credit restrictions will persist beyond 2-years.

expert Real estate team
moss capital is exceptionally well positioned to source residential development projects in strong growth areas. Projects currently under control by moss capital are forecast to achieve project internal rates of return in excess of 35%. moss capital has the people and skills to deliver projects that generate abnormal returns in what we believe to be a significant real estate market anomaly in this country.
