Invesco Real Estate announces acquisition of RetireAustralia with a portfolio of 29 retirement villages

8 August 2025 – Invesco Real Estate

 (IRE), the global real estate investment business of Invesco Ltd. (NYSE: IVZ), today announced it has entered into definitive documentation to acquire 100% of RetireAustralia, a leading owner, operator and developer of retirement villages in Australia for A$845m.

IRE will acquire RetireAustralia from Infratil and the New Zealand Superannuation Fund, each of which hold a 50% interest in RetireAustralia. Both shareholders’ interests are managed by infrastructure investment manager Morrison.

 

Calvin Chou, Head of Asia Pacific, Invesco Real Estate, commented: “The acquisition of RetireAustralia represents a unique investment opportunity to expand Invesco Real Estate’s presence in Australia’s rapidly growing senior living sector. The country’s aging population, coupled with their rising wealth, is driving demand for alternative aged care solutions, and RetireAustralia’s care-centric operating model is well positioned to meet this need. This investment aligns with our objective of diversifying our portfolio with high-quality assets, enabling us to consistently deliver robust income and capital growth.”

As one of the largest players in Australia, RetireAustralia owns and operates 29 senior living villages across New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia, comprising over 4,300 independent living units, serviced and care apartments. In addition, it has a robust development pipeline with the potential to deliver up to 800 units across 7 projects across the country.

 

Dr Brett Robinson, Chief Executive of RetireAustralia, added: “Invesco Real Estate’s focus on long-term investment trends, combined with its strong track record of investing in the senior living sector across South Korea, Australia, and the US, position it as an ideal shareholder and partner for RetireAustralia. By working together, I believe we will create thriving communities where more older Australians can live and age well, meeting the country’s growing need for high-quality seniors housing and care as we address evolving demographics.”

The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to complete in the final quarter of the 2025 calendar year.
