Yes good point. Cashflow should be very strong for the next 12 months, as BTR 1(Resido) starts generating cash in Q2, while capex spending is entering a rather low phase with BTR 1 finished and stage 1 Drury earthworks also mostly done.

Vero Centre sale update
28/2/2024, 3:46 pmGENERAL
Kiwi Property is in advanced negotiations for the conditional sale of the Vero Centre in Auckland for a small discount to book value. An additional announcement will be made outlining further details if, and when, an agreement is reached.
Kiwi Property has disclosed this information following market enquiries about the proposed transaction, in line with its continuous disclosure obligations.
If a sale is completed - assuming somewhere around $425m-$450m price - this will radically reshape KPGs balance sheet. Huge move.
Hey Laser .."is this just a rave to potential investors ….or something new included?
Presume you are referring to the Resido-focused release? Can’t see too much new, but fleshing out the details about the current rental market somewhat - although perhaps including something’s that have previously only been detailed on conference calls, like the mention on the last page of the presentation about potentially selling a portion of Resido to a capital partner.

Kiwi Property valuations hold firm despite headwinds
4/4/2024, 9:56 am GENERAL
Kiwi Property today announced its draft valuations for the six months ended 31 March 2024, recording a 0.1% or $3.6 million increase in the fair value of its property portfolio, which was expected to be worth $3.2 billion at the end of the period.
Kiwi Property Chief Executive Officer Clive Mackenzie said: “It’s encouraging to see the value of our diversified property portfolio holding firm, despite the slow economy and high interest rate environment.
“The sustained performance of assets such as Sylvia Park and The Base is a testament to their resilience and highlights the merit of our mixed-use strategy. While the market has seemingly priced-in further write-downs of our property portfolio, based on the latest valuations, those concerns may be overdone.”
The draft valuations are expected to result in the following movements through the period:
• Mixed-use portfolio: +0.8% or +$16.0 million, underpinned by stable capitalisation rates and robust trading.
• Office portfolio [Note 1]: -1.9% or -$16.2 million, due to continued headwinds in the office sector.
• Retail portfolio: -0.4% or -$0.6 million, with valuations flat in aggregate.
• Other properties: +3.1% or +$4.5 million, reflecting the continued progress of earthworks at Drury.
• Net tangible asset backing per share: $1.17. No change.
Kiwi Property’s draft asset valuations are subject to final independent audit, finalisation of year-end book values and will be confirmed in the company’s annual results for the year ended 31 March 2024, due to be released on 27 May 2024.

I was in Palmy on the afternoon of Anzac day. The Plaza appeared to be doing a roaring trade. Loads of people in there and not much else to do in Palmy. I know the Plaza will be eventually sold by KPG and it should be a good investment if it gets syndicated out as it dominates the retail landscape in the city. The rest of the square and Broadway is mostly a ghosttown.
Separately, I read the article saying some Auckland rental properties are getting 80 applications. I guess the thousands of immigrants streaming into Auckland will underpin the vibrant rental market for some time. Should bode well for KPG's residential rental business coming up to launch very soon.
