Stake in New Industrial Hub Offering 6% Net Return

Buyers can secure a stake in a cutting-edge industrial park with a no-money-down deposit bond and a 6% net return locked in for two years from settlement, as part of a uniquely attractive investment proposition.

Premium warehouse units are now for sale at Orient Innovation Park, a visionary 16-hectare master-planned precinct where business meets innovation in Hamilton’s Te Rapa commercial and industrial stronghold.

Strategically located in New Zealand’s fastest growing city, the new development features six architecturally designed buildings delivering a modern and cohesive industrial precinct.

All earthworks have been completed, and roading and infrastructure work is near completion. Foundations and construction are now underway with completion of 20 industrial units in Blocks D, E and F scheduled for April 2027.

The units are available for sale by price on application exclusively through Mike Marinkovich, Geoff Wyatt, Jordan Metcalfe and Rebecca Bruce of Bayleys Real Estate.

Marinkovich said investors were guaranteed an immediate six percent per annum net rental return from settlement, via a two-year leaseback to the developer.

“Owner-occupiers, too, have a unique opportunity: to position their business in Te Rapa’s most innovative industrial precinct, promoted as the future of smart, versatile workspace,” he said.

Buyers can secure units with no money down, thanks to a special Deposit Bond available through Deposit Power and Vega.

“This allows purchasers to secure a property now while preserving their liquidity right through to settlement upon completion and issuing of title in about 12 months’ time. Deposit Bonds can cover up to 10 percent of the purchase price,” said Marinkovich.

Wyatt said buyers could also qualify for a 20 percent tax deduction on the purchase price of new commercial and industrial buildings via the Government’s new assets Investment Boost Tax Deduction incentive – further enhancing cash flow and overall investment returns.

“Together, this adds up to an elite investment proposition with immediate returns and strong long-term growth potential. Buyers can reap the benefits of secure, attractive, stable income from day one, calculated on the purchase price – not inflated projections,” said Wyatt.

The 20 warehouse units for sale range in size from 193 to 355 square metres (approximately). They feature high-stud, open-plan warehouse areas from 158 to 316 square metres, plus a 39 to 43-square-metre mezzanine level. Freehold strata titles will be issued circa April 2027

Metcalfe said the units were crafted for peak functionality.

“Each warehouse has a six to eight-metre stud height, three-phase power, and six-metre roller door access – making them ideal for trades, warehousing, or large-format storage of personal items like boats, motorhomes or cars,” he said.

All units come equipped with a toilet, kitchenette and mezzanine.

“High-quality professional design and concrete tilt-slab construction support high tenant appeal, low maintenance and long-term durability,” Metcalfe said.

Bruce said Orient Innovation Park catered to the needs of diverse businesses, from growing enterprises seeking expansion, importers or wholesalers needing top-tier distribution facilities, or tradespeople seeking a quality workshop.

The strategic location in one of Hamilton’s most desirable industrial precincts positioned the development for strong capital growth and tenant demand, she said.

“This location guarantees high visibility, strong amenity and seamless accessibility for occupiers’ operations. Zoned Industrial under the Hamilton District Plan, Orient Innovation Park is surrounded by industry leaders such as Mainfreight Warehousing, DHL, The Tool Shed, 4Guys Autobarn and Z Service Station. One of New Zealand’s largest retail centres, The Base, is just moments away.

“Exceptional connectivity with the Waikato Expressway and main arterial routes supports easy travel across Hamilton and the ‘Golden Triangle’ linking the city with Auckland and Tauranga,” Bruce said.
