What Really Drives Australia’s Commercial Property Market with Bruce Baker
In this episode of The Exchange, Ryan Loehr sits down with Bruce Baker, Senior Managing Director – Queensland at CBRE, to unpack what’s really driving Australia’s commercial property market and where discerning investors are finding opportunity in the current cycle.
With more than three decades of experience spanning capital markets, funds management, and real estate services, Bruce shares his perspective on how ownership structures, valuation trends, and capital flows have evolved and why Brisbane and South-East Queensland are emerging as markets to watch.
From shifting investor behaviour and supply-demand dynamics to the impact of infrastructure, migration, and rising construction costs, Bruce offers a clear, data-driven view of where we are in the cycle and what’s next for office, retail, and industrial assets.
Whether you’re a private investor, family office, or adviser, this episode delivers valuable context for navigating property today and positioning for the opportunities ahead.
