Case Studies

We worked with a client who manages a diverse portfolio, including residential, commercial, industrial and specialist properties. They were seeking clarity on the current market value of their assets and advice on optimizing their portfolio’s performance. Through our property valuation process and understanding their property strategy, we identified underperforming properties which enabled the client to make decisions about their portfolio, to increase rental yields, and unlock significant value across their assets.

One of our private clients was looking to sell a family property and prior to selling, we assisted them with how to position it in the current market. After conducting a detailed valuation and local research, we were able to advise on how to present the property for sale, areas to focus on that significantly increased its appeal. By providing this advice and working closely with the client, they were able to secure a sale well above their expectations.

A long standing client required an urgent valuation on a property they were looking to acquire. The valuation was required within 48 hours to allow them to negotiate on a sale by a set date. We were able to inspect, complete the valuation and discuss the property with the client prior to the timeframe, allowing them to negotiate with confidence and secure the property below the original asking price.
