Selling
Maximising value starts before the property goes to market.
Before recommending a sale strategy, Index reviews the property, its leases, income, market position and potential opportunities to identify how the asset can best be presented to the market.
We consider:
The likely buyer market — investors, owner-occupiers or developers
Current market position and likely sale range
Lease expiry profile and rental position
Opportunities to lease vacant space or improve the tenancy mix
Rental reversions and potential income upside
Repairs, presentation and capital expenditure
The appropriate method of sale and marketing strategy
Target buyers and direct approaches from our database
Our objective is simple — position the property correctly, create competition and achieve the best possible result.

Leasing
Specialist retail leasing experience built over more than 40 years.
Index provides strategic leasing and project leasing services for shopping centres, large format retail and selected retail properties throughout South East Queensland.
Our approach extends beyond simply finding a tenant. We consider the role of each tenancy within the property, appropriate tenant mix, market rental, lease structure and the impact of the transaction on the property's income and underlying value.
Our leasing services include:
Project and development leasing
Existing centre leasing and repositioning
Large format retail leasing
Fast food and service station pre-commitments
Tenant mix and leasing strategy
Lease negotiations and commercial terms
Targeted retailer approaches
Assessing the impact on capitalised value
With more than 1,300 transactions completed since 1998, Index has established extensive relationships with national, regional and local retailers.
The objective is not simply to complete a lease — it is to negotiate a sustainable transaction that contributes to the long-term performance and value of the property.
