Our work falls into two streams — transactional and ownership — but the value comes from having both in the same firm.
The same team that assesses a building at acquisition can plan its capital needs a decade later.
That continuity makes the advice better.
Good transactional advice is clear, timely, and grounded in the building you are actually looking at — not a template. We work at the pace acquisitions demand and give you the information you need to make a confident decision.
A thorough, independent assessment of a property's physical condition, compliance status, and capital expenditure obligations — written for the person who has to make a decision. We inspect what matters, report what we find, and tell you what it means.
Getting a depreciation assessment on acquisition is vital to ensure you are not only optimising your after-tax returns but also setting the platform for all future cap-ex, balancing adjustments and cost base monitoring. Our tax depreciation specialists are there to ensure that getting the numbers right from day one makes a meaningful difference to long term returns.
Before you commit to buy or when you are selling, we can provide a fast turnaround estimate of depreciation benefits. Key data to assist in modelling the prospective after-tax position on the investment.
Our ESG Due Diligence services provide investors with a clear understanding of an asset's sustainability performance and climate-related risks and opportunities. Tailored to meet specific reporting and transaction requirements, our assessments evaluate key ESG considerations, including environmental performance, exposure to physical climate risks, regulatory obligations and market expectations. The resulting insights help clients make informed investment decisions, identify potential costs and value-enhancement opportunities, and develop strategies to improve asset resilience and long-term performance.
We provide independent assessments of reinstatement costs so your insurance coverage reflects what it would actually cost to rebuild today — an important step that is easy to overlook and expensive to have wrong.
Our role doesn’t end when the report is issued. For clients who want a genuinely trusted advisor — one who knows their assets, understands their portfolio objectives, and is already across the history when the next question arises — we work on an ongoing partnership basis. Annual retainers and structured engagement programmes mean the relationship deepens over time, and the advice gets better for it.
We produce clear, evidence-based lifecycle forecasts that tell you what is coming, when, and what it is likely to cost — so capital planning is based on facts, not estimates, and surprises stay rare.
Make good obligations have a way of arriving faster than expected. We work with both landlords and tenants to understand their position, clarify what is reasonable, and reach sensible outcomes — ideally before things get formal.
A current, independent view of a building's condition. Useful at acquisition, lease renewal, insurance renewal, or simply for keeping on top of what you own.
When something is wrong, an independent technical view early gives you the clearest picture of what it is, what caused it, and what remediation looks like — when your options are still open.
Correctly allocating construction costs across capital works, repairs, and deductible items is important and frequently underestimated. We work with accountants and property teams to get the allocations right and keep them defensible.
Refurbishments, fit-outs, and disposals all affect the depreciation position. We maintain and update schedules annually so the figures reflect the building as it is, not as it was.
When refurbishment or remediation work is needed, we can take on the coordination role — so our clients stay focused on running their portfolios while the building work gets done properly.
Strong performance against NABERS rating tools—particularly NABERS Energy—is increasingly critical in the Australian property market, influencing asset value, tenant demand and investor confidence. Our team assesses your asset's current performance and develops a clear, prioritised improvement roadmap, identifying practical and cost-effective initiatives to maximise NABERS ratings and operational efficiency. Roadmaps can be delivered as standalone reports or integrated with Lifecycle CAPEX Forecasting to align future capital investment with sustainability objectives, ensuring upgrades are strategically planned and deliver measurable performance outcomes.
Climate Risk Reporting will help you understand how current and future climate-related hazards may impact the performance, value and resilience of your buildings and portfolios. By assessing exposure to physical climate risks and identifying potential vulnerabilities, our reporting provides clear, data-driven insights to support strategic planning, investment decisions, asset management and compliance with emerging sustainability and disclosure requirements. The result is greater confidence in protecting asset value, reducing long-term costs, improving resilience and demonstrating proactive risk management to investors, tenants and stakeholders.
