Site and Option Analysis
It is only after your site’s opportunities and constraints have been fully uncovered can you decide the best way of unlocking its full potential.
Delivering a master plan which creates a centre of excellence for water and environmental research and innovation
Only after its opportunities and constraints have been uncovered can you spot potential problems and turn them to your advantage
Before taking on any development risk yourself, we will assess the potential constraints and investigate trees, service needs, potential drainage strategies and road access before you move forward.
Each option will have a site-specific development cost and our local knowledge of planning policy will help you assess how much each option will cost to deliver.
Our full evaluation will provide the comfort you need to begin investing further funds. Sometimes it might even be best to walk away or partner with someone who has deeper pockets

Development funding
Sharing in development risk with a funding partner can make good sense but finding a UK or international investor with compatible objectives is crucial.
Joint venture and partnering
If you don't wish to go it alone, we can set up innovative joint venture arrangements that build in flexibility and help share development risk.
Strategic planning advice
Securing planning permission is critical in securing an uplift in the value of your land but long before submitting an application, you may need advice on the best strategy to employ.
Land assembly
Piecing together land to create large-scale plans often pays off with a smoother path to planning permission and higher returns.
Development appraisal and financial modelling
Funding development and generating returns is a long-term undertaking. It takes time for money to start coming in, so it pays to be clear on your development cash flow and likely returns at the outset.
Assembling and managing key consultants
Any development will require a wide-ranging cast of experts to realise a vision; the key is modelling the appointment of these experts to best manage project cash flow.
Gaining planning consent
Getting your planning application approved is more than just box ticking. Securing planning consent means persuading the doubters and managing conflict along the way.
Budget and cost management
Designing a scheme that will be viable, valuable, and to institutional standards is only possible with the right development budget in place that will bring you return on investment.
Project delivery
Our project managers work closely with our commercial team to formulate a viability statement, giving you expectations on affordability, deliverability and potential yield before embarking on the complex construction stage.
Investment valuation
We use our in-depth market knowledge to provide asset valuation advice on your investment before, during and after your acquisition or disposal.
