Development Consultants

We have a long track record of identifying opportunities, negotiating consents and helping to securing funding to enable new build and conversion schemes. Our commercial marketplace experience compliments this and gives real credibility to our advice on mixed-use schemes.

We have particular expertise in affordable housing development and act for landowners, developers and Registered Providers – ensuring their specific objectives are fully met. Regeneration and ‘exceptions’ site schemes are our speciality.

Our commercial approach to each instruction is underpinned by a thorough understanding of the regulatory, funding, environmental and sustainability issues that need to be addressed. We work closely with other professionals and all stakeholders to overcome problems or objections.

At all times our focus remains firmly on achieving the delivery of viable and sustainable schemes for our clients, within budget and on time.

Our development consultancy services include:

• Site acquisition and assembly
• Scheme inception and development feasibility studies
• Market and local needs research
• Economic Viability Appraisal and Review
• Pre-application Consultation
• Application process management
• Negotiation of s106 agreements and planning contributions
• Promotion of landholdings at strategic and plan policy reviews

We are very proactive and market savvy – this allows us to identify and introduce development opportunities to clients and secure sites by way of option, conditional contract or straight purchase. Our agency service provides the shop window by which we achieve best value for clients looking to dispose of development sites or parts thereof.
