Our Commercial Properties
Westbridge Funds Management’s philosophy as a property investment fund manager is to own and maintain assets that hold strong and long-lasting appeal with tenants.
The Fund Management Team takes a hands-on approach to managing our assets, working closely with our dedicated in-house commercial leasing specialists (Westbridge Commercial). We strive to maintain our properties to a high standard, meeting our tenants’ needs through proactive management, effective leasing solutions and a forward-thinking approach to improving and developing our assets.
Our Portfolio
The Westbridge commercial portfolio consists of over 150,000 square metres of commercial property, including a wide range of industrial, retail, and healthcare assets located across Australia.
We work with a broad range of tenants across our portfolio, from large multinationals and ASX-listed corporations, to smaller-scale specialist retailers.
Our years of experience, combined with our holistic approach to commercial leasing, means we are recognised by investors and tenants alike as one of the leading commercial real estate companies in Perth, WA.
Our approach to commercial property
Our proactive approach to the assets within our commercial investment fund portfolio lies at the core of our management philosophy.
We understand that leasing commercial property requires a holistic mindset, in order to optimise investor returns while safeguarding tenant satisfaction. Through our dynamic and forward-thinking management strategies, we ensure our properties and tenants remain competitive in the market, while maximising tenant retention.
Proactive leasing
We are proactive in our approach to commercial real estate leasing within our portfolio and aim to discuss leasing matters with all our tenants in advance of their lease expiry. Our commercial leasing agents endeavour to provide competitive market terms on a flexible commercial basis. We are always reviewing our portfolio and are able to work with tenants on expansion and contractions. We also look to develop additional space for leasing where opportunities arise.
Holistic approach
We know that transparent and proactive communication is critical in delivering better outcomes across our property funds. The majority of properties within our commercial property fund portfolio are managed by our in-house commercial leasing consultants, who are both accountable to, and work alongside, our fund management team. This holistic approach means that day-to-day communication with our tenants is streamlined, enabling us to make better informed management decisions and collaborate more effectively on leasing solutions.
Established network of partners
Westbridge Commercial has established a national trusted network of maintenance partners who can respond quickly to offer repair and maintenance services with a high level of professionalism and minimal disruption. Our partners also offer insight on trends and developments within their respective industries, which assists in our focus with keeping our properties modern and well-presented.
Regular maintenance & upgrades
With over 20 years’ experience, our knowledge of commercial property is extensive. We know first-hand the importance of having a well-maintained property, as your premises often form the first impression of your business for customers and other visitors. Through regular maintenance and repairs, as well as proactive upgrades, we constantly strive to keep our properties in good condition. This means that our tenants can focus on running their business, while we ensure that our properties are kept up-to-date and competitive in the market.
