Charter Hall wholesale partnership LWHP, which comprises VFMC, Telstra Super and CHC as partners, has acquired a A$353 million ($258 million) portfolio of six Bunnings assets located in prime Australian metropolitan markets.

The portfolio of modern Bunnings Warehouse retail stores was acquired at a yield of 4.63 percent. The portfolio, 85 percent of which is located in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, has a WALE of 10 years and 2.5 percent annual rent reviews.
