OVERVIEW OF OUR PORTFOLIO

We focus on developing a diversified portfolio of residential, retail, office and industrial properties by extracting value from existing stock and acquiring properties in Gauteng with a focus on the Tshwane and Johannesburg central business districts and surrounding areas.

Our foremost investment criteria when acquiring or disposing of properties are strategic fit, sustained profitability and our ability to extract further value.

FRANK’S PLACE ENTRANCE AREA

RESIDENTIAL SPACES

OUR FIRST CONVERSION OF A CBD PROPERTY INTO RESIDENTIAL UNITS TO MEET THE DEMAND FOR QUALITY ACCOMMODATION AT AFFORDABLE PRICES WAS IN 1998.

Our first conversion of a CBD property into residential units to meet the demand for quality accommodation at affordable prices was in 1998. Our residential property portfolio’s concentration of about
9 500 apartments and 14 500 tenants in the CBDs of Tshwane and Johannesburg is well positioned to take advantage of urbanisation and densification trends.

Among the factors we consider when making investment decisions and deciding on development specifications are market insights, tenant feedback and urban renewal initiatives.

GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES IN CBD RETAIL EXCEED THAT OF TRADITIONAL SHOPPING MALLS

RETAIL
SPACES

WE OFFER QUALITY HIGH-STREET RETAIL OPPORTUNITIES

We offer quality high-street retail opportunities on the ground floors of buildings and in walkways and arcades in the Tshwane and Johannesburg CBDs where Octodec has invested in upgrades to contemporary retail standards.

Growth opportunities in CBD retail exceed that of traditional shopping malls and they have the added benefit of lower tenant costs, including lower common area cleaning and air conditioning requirements.

OCTODEC’S OFFICE
PORTFOLIO CONSISTS
OF THREE DIVERSE
OFFERINGS

OFFICES

OCTODEC’S OFFICE PORTFOLIO CONSISTS OF THREE DIVERSE OFFERINGS SUITED BOTH TO GOVERNMENT AND LARGE CORPORATES AND TO TENANTS WHO REQUIRE SMALLER, INDIVIDUALISED POCKETS OF OFFICE SPACE.

Octodec’s office portfolio consists of three diverse offerings suited both to government and large corporates and to tenants who require smaller, individualised pockets of office space. The Rentmeester and Persequor office parks in Tshwane are examples of offerings suited to the requirements of government and large corporates.

The Towers brand was specifically developed to meet the increasing demand for smaller, individualised offerings from newly qualified graduates starting out in the CBD, professionals and small enterprises.

Our industrial offering includes warehouses, mini factories, workshops and industrial parks. The recent upgrading of this sector of our portfolio, aimed at attracting small businesses to certain nodes, has attracted better quality tenants with longer lease terms. We are continuing to customise premises to specific tenant requirements.
