Sydney’s industrial land boom has delivered a windfall profit for Financial Review Rich Lister Bob Ell family’s Leda Holdings, which has tripled its money in four years with the sale of an industrial site in south-west Sydney.Leda Holdings bought the 7.
Rob Ell, managing director of Leda Holdings - and the son of Bob Ell - said the company was still bullish on industrial property and planned to keep investing in the sector. The Milperra property was sold in an off-market campaign by Gavin Bishop, Trent Gallagher and Sean Thomson from Colliers. “With the diminishing supply of land in South Sydney, tenants are being pushed out and markets like Milperra are attracting interest – it’s cheaper in outgoings, cheaper in rent, and you’re not that far from the ports.”
