Why Commercial Property Investments Outperform Term Deposits

We consistently strive to offer our investors the most robust opportunities for growth. While term deposits have long been viewed as a safe haven for capital, recent trends in Australia indicate a shift in their attractiveness, particularly in comparison to the potential of commercial property investments.

The Declining Appeal of Term Deposits

In recent months, Australia’s major banks have been reducing the interest rates on term deposits. This comes in anticipation of potential rate cuts by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). The cuts, ranging up to 80 basis points, mark a significant decline in the returns that savers can expect from these traditionally low-risk investments. While term deposits offer security, their ability to generate meaningful returns in a low-interest-rate, high inflation environment has become increasingly limited.

The Superior Returns of Commercial Property

In contrast, commercial property investments present a compelling alternative for those seeking stronger returns. We have a long track record of delivering consistent, above-average returns through strategic investments in commercial properties. Unlike term deposits, which are directly tied to fluctuating interest rates, commercial properties offer the potential for capital growth and higher yields.

Commercial properties benefit from long-term leases with stable tenants, often resulting in reliable cash flow. Additionally, these properties are less susceptible to the day-to-day volatility that can impact other types of investments. As experts in property fund management, we know how to maximise these advantages, ensuring that our investors benefit from both passive income and capital appreciation.

AGEM’s Approach to Maximising Returns

Our approach is rooted in deep market knowledge and a commitment to maximising the potential of each investment. We understand that in today’s economic climate, investors need more than just safety—they need growth. By carefully selecting and actively managing high-quality commercial properties, we provide our investors with opportunities that far exceed the returns available from traditional term deposits.
