Technical due diligence

Minimise risk and make informed capital planning decisions

It’s critical to understand the potential risks or likely costs prior to committing to a property transaction. Pass on unsuitable deals and capitalise on the right ones.

Comprehensive assessment of condition, suitability for intended use, and future capital expenditure provides protection for investors. It’s your opportunity to understand whether or not the property has been properly maintained, as assessed by experts, and if not – you can use this information to better negotiate the sale price or back-out of the transaction altogether.

With experience serving both large and small clients we provide:

An independent and objective perspective
Expertise across Australia and around the globe
Expertise across all commercial asset types
