KEY HIGHLIGHTS<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Living\u00a0has been\u00a0APAC’s most resilient real estate sector in recent years<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • It was the\u00a0only sector to record investment volume\u00a0growth\u00a0during both the COVID-19 pandemic and the global rate-hiking cycle, at 51% and 18%<\/strong>, respectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Rental\u00a0growth\u00a0has also consistently outpaced both inflation and interest rates<\/strong>, preserving real income while maintaining a positive spread over financing costs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Together, these characteristics reinforce\u00a0APAC\u00a0living\u00a0as a\u00a0compelling, income-oriented allocation within a diversified real estate portfolio<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Structural demand is no longer the differentiator, execution is<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Demographic shifts in\u00a0APAC, particularly\u00a0shrinking household sizes, the\u00a0growth\u00a0of single-person households, continued urbanisation and cross-border mobility<\/strong>, are increasing demand for housing and heightening affordability pressures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • This is unfolding alongside\u00a0persistent housing shortages and elevated homeownership barriers<\/strong>, further shifting demand towards rental solutions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Government policy has emerged as a key\u00a0growth\u00a0catalyst<\/strong>, boosting demand through immigration and labour mobility while creating a more supportive environment for institutional rental housing through planning and regulatory reforms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • The combination of policy-supported population\u00a0growth\u00a0and persistent housing supply strengthens\u00a0demand visibility<\/strong>, supports\u00a0high occupancy<\/strong>\u00a0and creates favourable conditions for\u00a0sustainable rental\u00a0growth\u00a0and long-term income resilience<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Demographic tailwinds and policy reforms underpin demand and expand the investable universe, but\u00a0excess returns will increasingly depend on how investors enter, operate and scale assets<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. There is no single\u00a0APAC\u00a0living\u00a0strategy<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            • While the\u00a0APAC\u00a0living\u00a0opportunity set is expanding, it is not a homogeneous asset class. Each market-subsector follows a different institutionalisation path, offering\u00a0distinct risk-return profiles and entry strategies<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • \u3067\u00a0\u65e5\u672c<\/strong>,\u00a0direct acquisition of stabilised multifamily assets<\/strong>\u00a0remains the dominant strategy given the market\u2019s\u00a0established depth and liquidity<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Australia\u2019s PBSA and coliving sectors<\/strong>\u00a0feature a mix of\u00a0ground-up development and conversion opportunities<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • \u3067\u00a0\u30b7\u30f3\u30ac\u30dd\u30fc\u30eb<\/strong>, entry strategy into the\u00a0coliving sector<\/strong>\u00a0largely revolves around\u00a0adaptive reuse and conversion of existing assets<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • \u9999\u6e2f<\/strong>\u00a0PBSA<\/strong>\u00a0is likely the\u00a0most conversion-led\u00a0living\u00a0market in\u00a0APAC<\/strong>, driven by policy reforms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • \u97d3\u56fd<\/strong>\u2019s\u00a0living\u00a0market is in an\u00a0early stage of institutionalisation<\/strong>, creating opportunities for investors to establish operating capabilities and sourcing networks ahead of broader market development.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. Operational capability and scale are becoming core sources of alpha<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                • Revenue management, product positioning, active asset management and local expertise<\/strong>\u00a0are increasingly driving performance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Regional platforms<\/strong>\u00a0can enhance sourcing, standardise design and procurement, optimise pricing and operations, and create multiple capital recycling and exit pathways.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"author":4380,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"kh_category":[30],"class_list":["post-41652","knowledge-hub","type-knowledge-hub","status-publish","hentry","kh_category-thought-leadership"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAPAC Flexible Living: Achieving Scalable Growth From Structural Demand -
