At $22 million, The Precinct has been purchased at a yield of 8.34%, which we consider to be very good buying in the current market. Comparable assets in the southern states would most likely sell at a yield of around 6.5%, commanding a sale price of around $28 million, for a similar income stream.

4. LOCATION
Strategically located on one of Townsville’s major thoroughfares, less than 4km from the commercial centre of Townsville. Closely situated to the Army and Air Force bases (15,000 serving personnel); schools; residential developments; sporting complexes; and James Cook University.
5. INCOME DISTRIBUTIONS
Based on our forecasts, the net income of the Precinct Unit Trust is expected to average 9.7% p.a. over the next 7 years. We propose to make monthly income distributions at the rate of 8.8% p.a. providing adequate cash reserves for capital outlays and contingencies.
6. CAPITAL VALUE ENHANCEMENT
We see several opportunities for increasing the capital value of the property over a 5 to 6 – year term, including subdividing the property and creating a number of key
7. WE LIKE TOWNSVILLE
The Capital City of North Queensland, with a major port, Universities, strategic military bases and a local economy that we believe has considerable near – term upside. Anticipated population increases should reflect directly in increased income and enhanced value for retail centres such as The Precinct.

Townsville, the largest city in Northern Australia, is a gateway to Queensland’s extensive mining and agricultural regions.
It is recognised as Northern Australia’s largest economy at $11.426 billion (value added, as at April 2014) and is a hub for growth and investment opportunity.
The city boasts a population of approximately 190,000 and an annual growth rate of 2.5%
According to demographer Bernard Salt, ‘no city of comparable size has quite the connection into the future prosperity of the Australian nation as does Townsville’ (QLD Gov Website).
Townsville offers ‘stability, urban concentration and prosperity’ along with ‘a unique mix of employment drivers’ and ‘the highest average disposable household income among Australia’s 20 largest urban centres outside of a State or Territory capital’.
The Port of Townsville is the region’s major sea link for exporting the vast mineral wealth of the North West Minerals Province and North Queensland’s extensive agricultural produce, as well as receiving vital supplies for regional industry and the community.
As Australia’s largest garrison city, the Australian Defence Force is a pivotal component of the local economy, contributing around $800m annually to gross regional product (GRP).
Townsville is the tropical education and science hub for North Queensland. It has a concentration of world class education, training and research facilities, which are recognised internationally. It is the gateway to World Heritage listed rainforest and reef, tropical islands, national parks, wetlands, historical, military and outback experiences.
