Investment & Development Consulting

Strategic advice for property investors and developers

Overview

Property investment is too capital-intensive to do without strategy. We work with private investors, family offices, developers and institutions on portfolio strategy, acquisition due diligence, and exit planning.

Most property losses don't come from market crashes — they come from buying the wrong asset at the wrong price for the wrong reason. The investor was sold a story; the surveyor was never engaged; the numbers were never modelled properly.

We bring the discipline of professional appraisal to every stage of an investor's journey. Should you buy this asset? At what price? How does it fit your existing portfolio? What's the exit plan? What returns are realistic?

Our advisory mandates range from one-off acquisition due diligence to ongoing strategic advice for family offices and corporate property portfolios.

FAQs

Questions clients ask

What's the minimum portfolio size?+

No minimum. We work with single-property investors right up to multi-billion-naira portfolios.

Will you recommend specific properties to buy?+

Only after due diligence. We never recommend a property we haven't inspected and modelled.

Do you take commissions from sellers?+

No — that would compromise our independence. We charge fees direct to clients.

How is this different from agency?+

Agency is transactional; advisory is strategic. The two can complement each other but we keep them separate to avoid conflicts.

About fees

Advisory work is charged either as a fixed-scope fee or a periodic retainer. We will scope clearly and quote in writing before any work starts.
