Property Development
High quality investments & developments.
From opportunity to outcome.
Successful property development starts well before construction. It requires a clear understanding of the site, the market, the planning environment and the opportunities that exist within a property. We work across the development process to help identify opportunities, establish their potential and guide projects from initial feasibility through to delivery.
Feasibility Studies.
Every development begins with understanding what is possible.
We undertake detailed feasibility assessments to investigate a site's potential, considering planning controls, site characteristics, development options, costs and likely outcomes.
Site Aquisition.
The right site is fundamental to a successful development.
We assist in assessing potential acquisitions, looking beyond the property itself to understand its broader development potential.
Planning and Approvals.
Navigating the planning process is a critical part of bringing a development opportunity to life.
We coordinate the planning and approvals process, working with the relevant consultants, authorities and project stakeholders to progress a considered proposal.
A successful development requires consistent oversight from beginning to end.
Case Studies
CASE STUDY 01 | Parkview
PROJECT TYPE
Multi-residential, 4 architect-designed homes over a basement, planning permit (VCAT). End-to-end development delivery: strategic planning and approvals through to delivery and sale, achieving completion in a 12-month timeframe. By securing planning approval before sale, the project maximised the site's value and delivered a shovel-ready development opportunity for the incoming owner.
The outcome highlights the importance of strategic planning and development expertise in unlocking value and creating successful commercial outcomes.
OVERVIEW
​
This project involved the identification, planning, and enhancement of a residential development site in a sought-after suburb. Working closely with architects, consultants, and council, a planning permit was secured for a boutique townhouse development, unlocking the site's full potential and significantly increasing its market appeal.
Through strategic project management and careful planning, the site was transformed into a highly attractive development opportunity. The project culminated in a successful sale with the benefit of an approved planning permit, providing the purchaser with certainty, reduced planning risk, and a clear pathway to construction.
