Are you currently looking for a new commercial office headquarters and are unsure of your preferred location?
With picturesque Brisbane River and CBD views, access to multiple major public transport nodes, high street retail amenities and affordable office rent, we think you should be investigating Milton, Brisbane.
Over the years, Milton has evolved into a burgeoning, modern suburb home to commercial offices, retail and a significant residential catchment area for the western corridor of Brisbane.
So, why is Milton the perfect suburb for you to lease commercial property in Brisbane?
Highly Convenient Location
Milton is located approximately two kilometres to the west of Brisbane’s central business district. Its uniquely convenient location is unrivalled in Brisbane, making it one of the fastest-growing suburbs in Queensland.
Milton’s location makes it easily accessible to supplies, customers, and employees, taking us to point two: Transportation.
Choice of Transportation
As the neighbouring suburb to the Brisbane CBD, Milton offers a variety of transport options, including train, City Cat, bus and pedestrian/bike access to the inner city.
With an office in Milton, you and your team will have direct access to the Bicentennial Bikeway, which meanders along the river from Toowong to Brisbane City and the botanic gardens. The bikeway is a multi-use trail with separate lanes for pedestrians and cyclists and is a unique way of getting around.
Prefer commuting by train? Milton Railway Station is the first stop on the Ipswich line after Roma Street Station. It’s served by hundreds of commuter trains every day. From here, the train that heads into Brisbane Central takes less than five minutes.
Another unique form of transportation is the City Cat, a ferry service that takes you along the Brisbane River. Located conveniently on Coronation Drive, the Milton Ferry Terminal is only a short walk from the Milton commercial precinct.
Milton is also serviced by bus routes 470/416 and 475/476.
Affordable Lease Costs
Cost is a significant factor in any occupier’s decision-making process.
Below we have created a table explaining and outlining the relationships between building grade (quality) and comparative gross rental range.
How does this stack with the rest of Brisbane’s fringe precincts?
Commercial lease incentives are payments or concessions offered by a landlord to encourage a new tenant to sign a lease or entice an existing tenant to renew their lease. Incentives are typically offered in the form of either payment of a fit-out or amortised rental discounts.
Milton, on average, offers incentives that are in the order of 5% higher than the rest of the Brisbane precincts.
Why? Milton recently experienced a spike in vacancy when a few of the long-term anchor tenants in the precinct decided to relocate back into the Brisbane CBD. When vacancy increased, owners in the precinct had to compete for tenant commitment, hence why deals were more aggressive.
The vacancy in Milton has recently tightened significantly, so if you consider this precinct as the long-term home for your business, you better get in quick!
So, with lower rents and higher incentives, Milton ends up being roughly 15% cheaper and more affordable than other Brisbane commercial markets.
Entertainment
Milton is home to Suncorp Stadium, XXXX Brewery, and Park Road, a strip of trendy bars and restaurants, all of which are great places to grab lunch or an after-work drink.
Also, every Friday on the Milton Green, you can grab yourself a bit to eat at one of the delicious food stalls!
