Projects
4 Mort Street
Aegis Capital acquired 4 Mort Street, Canberra City, ACT, in June 2025 through a unit trust structure, raising capital from a closed group of investors.
Since the acquisition, Monarch Building has been undertaking a substantial repositioning of the asset. The façade upgrade, new ground floor lobby and spec-fitted office suites on levels 4 and 5 are complete. Tenant fit-outs across levels 1, 2 and 3 are well advanced and due for completion in late 2026, and works are continuing to progress on the rooftop and wellness space.
Leasing has progressed strongly since acquisition. A long-term extension from the building's anchor tenant and new commitments across multiple floors have significantly improved both occupancy and lease tenure.
The project has exceeded all metrics to date originally contemplated by the IM, and is expected to deliver a strong result for investors.
9 Brisbane Avenue
Aegis Capital acquired Lawley House, 9 Brisbane Avenue, Barton, ACT, in April 2026 through a unit trust structure, raising capital from a closed group of investors.
Set on a substantial landholding in Barton, Canberra's premier office precinct, the property is fully leased on a long-term basis to a Commonwealth Government tenant, with fixed annual rent increases built into the lease.
Since settlement, Aegis and the Trust's property manager have built a strong working relationship with the tenant. The tenant has brought forward a self-funded program of upgrades to the building's internal services, which will improve the asset at no cost to the Trust.
Alongside this, Aegis is working with its planning and architectural advisers to explore the site's longer-term development potential. The asset has delivered regular distributions to investors since acquisition and is well placed to provide secure, growing income over the long term.
Future Projects
Aegis Capital is in confidential negotiations and capital raising for multiple projects at present, including:
Acquisition of a large commercial asset to be repositioned similar to the 4 Mort Street asset (in fundraising now, closing September 2026).
Acquisition of substantive landholder rights and developing a large entertainment precinct (in negotiations at present, fundraising expected in late 2026).
Managed asset and development services for a large-scale development in Canberra (shortlisted).
