Burgess Rawson chief executive Ingrid Filmer highlighted the GSI assets’ exceptional performance, with almost $27m exchanged over the three-day event, achieving yields as low as 3.96 per cent.

Ms Filmer said the surging demand for recession-proof GSI assets was driven by their “sticky’ tenant base, which ensured long-term tenancies.
