The Charter Hall Abacus (CHAB) Office Trust has entered into conditional contracts to buy two commercial buildings in Brisbane from the Australian Unity Office Fund for A$63.2m (鈧�41m).
Charter Hall and Abacus Property own CHAB trust. The two companies forged a consortium in 2019 to unsuccessfully bid for the Australian Unity Office Trust for A$435m.
Abacus and Charter Hall are expected to utilise existing liquidity to fund their respective equity investments in addition to asset-level non-recourse debt for the property.
In a joint statement, Steven Sewell, managing director of Abacus, and David Harrison, Charter Hall鈥檚 managing director and group CEO, said the acquisition in a prime location in Brisbane CBD was 鈥渁 great opportunity鈥� for the consortium to implement active asset management plans and capabilities to drive the returns from the asset.
