“A clear divergence in equivalent market yields and leasehold multiples is being reflected in the pricing of both freehold and leasehold childcare centres. Risk is now being priced-in appropriately with higher risk, higher beta centres exhibiting softer yields and lower multiples with unsystematic risk (above entire market risk) now being priced into purchasers pricing assumptions.” “ Each specific trade area must be assessed against its own fundamentals. We have witnessed adjoining suburbs exhibiting very different demand:supply fundamentals. The number of new centres will not cause over-supply if there is sufficient demand from the number of 0-5 year old residents and / or the worker population absorbing this supply.”
