Dubai-headquartered property developer GSA recently made its first foray into Australian real estate--homing in on a city that the country's central bank has warned is at risk of an apartment supply glut 3.
总部位于迪拜的房地产开发商GSA日前首次进军澳大利亚房地产行业。澳大利亚央行去年警告称，在城市中心可能出现公寓供应过剩问题Earlier this month, GSA said it would buy privately-held Campus Estates, a student accommodation developer building a 350-bed student apartment in inner-city Melbourne, for A$21 million. The deal is the first step toward a target of 25,000 student beds in Australia for GSA, which started with just over 100 beds in the U.K. in 1991 and now operates in eight countries including China and Japan.
本月早些时候，GSA曾表示，该公司将以2100万澳元收购私人持股的Campus Estates。学生公寓开发商Campus Estates正在澳大利亚墨尔本市中心建设一个包含350个床位的学生公寓。这桩交易是GSA迈向在澳大利亚创建2.5万个床位目标的第一步。1991年，GSA最初在英国只有略高于100个床位，而现在该公司在包括中国和日本在内的八个国家开展业务。
