Our Property Site Acquisition Services and Process

Our strategy to provide superior development site acquisition includes:

From our initial consultation we provide researched and data based advice to devise your personalised property acquisition strategy.

Due diligence and reporting

We undertake thorough property investigations in consultation with other leading experts, including financial, legal, technical, planning and other asset-specific requirements, providing a comprehensive property report and due diligence package.

Sourcing Phase

​Extensive and ongoing liaison with estate agents, private owners, developers, and other parties to obtain access to off-market and pre-market opportunities and publicly available, on-market opportunities. All investment opportunities must pass our proprietary investment grading criteria.

Negotiation and contract exchange

​Leveraging our agent relationships and years of experience, we negotiate the best commercial terms. We continue to liaise with your solicitor and other appointed consultants to obviate hassles during the exchange process.

Site analysis and inspections

Saving time through the necessary due diligence, we attend to the property on your behalf. Then, if the opportunity meets our agreed strategy, we'll arrange for a private inspection.
