The small Australian commercial portal, realestatecommercial.com.au, has just completed a small capital raising by securing investment from the Chinese company Zhuhai Huachen Constructions. In addition, realestatecommercial announced plans to raise $1.2m on the Australian Small Scale Offerings Board (ASSOB) for 30% of the company, valuing the company at $4m following the capital raising.
“We welcome the investment from the Chinese company and their local knowledge will be vital to our future plans for China. We have more products in the pipeline for both countries and look forward to advancing our beta website running in China (www.zhongguorec.com) and working closely with our new partners” commented Russell Robertson, Managing Director and Founder of Real Estate Commercial.
Li Dan Financial Manager of Zhuhai Huachen Constructions stated “We are very happy to commence an association with Real Estate Commercial in Australia and here in China through their website www.zhongguorec.com, this is our first overseas venture and we see the business development between Australia and China growing in the future. We were impressed by the development to date of the website here in China and see the synergy between the real estate markets in China and Australia in the next few years as a fast growing market, particularly with more and more Chinese looking to invest in property overseas, with Australia high on that list. We will be looking to invest further in the Australian Company during their capital raising program through ASSOB (Australian Small Scale Offerings).”
Real Estate Commercial has done a good job at generating content with a reported 250 Australian agent clients advertising over 10,000 listings.
However, when compared to the other Australian commercial real estate sites, realcommercial.com.au and commercialrealestate.com.au, realestatecommercial.com.au (i know – very confusing) doesn’t even rank on Alexa or Google Ad Planner. Clearly the capital being raised is likely to be most channelled intro brand building.
