Commercial Real Estate

Real asset credit, engineered for Australian CRE

Gallantree is a specialist commercial real estate credit manager. We originate, underwrite, and securitise senior and subordinated CRE debt, connecting institutional capital to Australian property sponsors through disciplined, downside-protected structures, including our flagship CRE CLO series.

Why Gallantree CRE

A specialist platform at the centre of Australian CRE credit

We sit in the middle of the market, originating directly and through a network of long-standing lender relationships, underwriting with our proprietary credit engine, and distributing through private placements and our CRE CLO programme. Both sides of the market access the same platform.

For Institutional Investors

Access an institutional-grade CRE credit allocation

Australian commercial real estate debt offers yield, seniority, and collateral protection that is difficult to replicate through public markets. We build tailored exposures, from rated senior tranches to stretched mezzanine, aligned to superannuation, insurance, and family office mandates.

Capital stack access

Senior, mezzanine, and subordinated exposures across diversified pools of Australian CRE loans, sized to your mandate and risk budget.

Downside protection

Conservative LVRs, stressed cap rates, and debt yield floors built into every transaction, with independent valuations and covenant surveillance.

Transparent reporting

Loan-level data, performance analytics, and quarterly investor reporting through the Gallantree Platform, with no black boxes.

Cycle-tested returns

Risk-adjusted yields designed to outperform public CRE indices, with a proven track record across tightening and easing environments.

How we underwrite

Asset Profiles

Stabilised and transitional assets, underwritten with the same discipline

We finance across the CRE risk spectrum. Stabilised assets attract senior, cash-flow-led facilities. Transitional assets benefit from structured capital sized to a clear business plan, with covenants calibrated to the path to stabilisation.

Stabilised

Cash-flowing, income producing assets

Leased, occupied, and generating predictable net operating income. Our senior facilities are priced off debt yield, ICR, and DSCR against stressed cap rates and vacancy.

Senior and stretched senior whole loans

Five-year and longer investment facilities

Covenant-light packages for institutional sponsors

Refinance, recap, and acquisition financing

Transitional

Value-add, repositioning, and development

Assets undergoing repositioning, leasing, refurbishment, or construction. We structure capital around the business plan and milestone-based drawdowns, with covenants that step through to stabilisation.

Bridge to stabilisation and lease-up

Construction and refurbishment facilities

Mezzanine and preferred equity overlays

Event-driven acquisition and recapitalisation
