Appraisal
Development value, cost, contingency, finance and profit assumptions.
Independent development advice
Desktop property development project review.
An experienced second opinion on the commercial, design, cost and delivery risks in a proposed acquisition or live development project.
Who it is for
A proportionate review before the next major decision.
The service is designed for developers, investors and funders who want an independent assessment before acquiring a site, approving further expenditure, changing strategy or addressing a project that is beginning to drift.
What is examined
A connected review of the project.
The review is tailored to the information available and the decision being considered.
Acquisition
Price, conditions, due-diligence gaps and matters requiring confirmation.
Planning
Consent, conditions, obligations and assumptions affecting the scheme.
Design
Coordination, buildability, specification and unresolved information.
Delivery
Programme, procurement, responsibilities and immediate project risks.
Exit
Market evidence, disposal assumptions and credible alternative strategies.
What you receive
A concise review built around decisions.
You receive a written note identifying the principal findings, the assumptions that require evidence, the most important risks and the recommended next actions.
This is not a generic automated report. The review is undertaken personally and considered in the context of the project.
Start with a brief project outline.
Email the location, development type, present stage, decision being considered and the documents currently available. We will confirm whether a desktop review is appropriate.
