DWPF has consistently outperformed the MSCI/Mercer Australia Core Wholesale Monthly Property Fund Index (post fees, net asset weighted) across all reported time horizons¹.

A portfolio built to endure
 

DWPF’s advantage is the product of 30 years of disciplined portfolio construction, deep market relationships and a commitment to quality that is difficult to replicate. Today, that foundation supports a circa $13 billion portfolio positioned for both stability and performance. And what's particularly compelling is DWPF's diversified structure provides the ability to capture the upside from tailwinds in all sectors.
 

The office portfolio is widely regarded as one of the best in the market. Landmark assets such as Gateway and Quay Quarter Tower in Sydney, and the $2.5 billion Waterfront Brisbane development - already more than 50% pre-committed - are benefiting from the flight to quality, and flight to core trends. Gateway recently achieved one of the highest net rents in Australia and it’s this leasing success that has driven a total return of over 13% for the last 12 months.
 

In retail, well located prime centres such as Indooroopilly and Westfield North Lakes continue to benefit from growth in the Queensland economy. And in industrial, the completion of Ravenhall in Melbourne’s west will deliver further development upside while improving the quality of the portfolio.
 

A number of retail assets have embedded potential future development opportunities that could further diversify the portfolio while capturing the Australia’s demographic tailwinds.
 

Market confidence returns
 

With valuations past the bottom of the cycle, investor sentiment continues to rebound. Secondary market activity is increasing and there are less opportunities to buy in at a discount.
 

We’re also seeing active engagement from offshore investors, led by major Asian investors who are entering Australia for the first time and supported by European investors seeking exposure to Australian real estate. This activity reflects a broader trend: mandates are being revisited and quality is the focus.
 

Importantly, some investors who had previously signalled withdrawals, are reassessing their positions and choosing to maintain exposure. While individual decisions vary, the pattern seems clear - capital is flowing toward scale, diversification and proven performance, and momentum is building at the right moment in the cycle.
 

Positioned for what’s next
 

The commercial real estate landscape has shifted. The winners will be those with scale, quality assets, operational depth and the financial strength to act decisively. DWPF has these attributes, demonstrated by a track record of delivering through cycles.
 

The 8.2% return for the year is more than a milestone – it signals that quality is being rewarded and the market is turning. For investors, DWPF’s multi-cycle performance and diversification provide confidence that the Fund is positioned to continue delivering for investors .
