General Property Advice & Problem Solving
Case Study

  • We were engaged by a Local Council in regional NSW to develop a structured property portfolio disposal strategy across a number of commercial and industrial assets, along with several development sites.

    Nick undertook a comprehensive review of the portfolio, identifying risks, opportunities and strategic considerations for each asset.

    Our advice was delivered in a detailed professional report prepared for Councillors to support their decision-making process. Nick also attended two Council meetings to participate in Q&A sessions, providing clarity around the report and recommendations.

    • Review of land title and tenure for each property

    • Physical inspection of all improvements

    • Reporting on the condition of improvements, identifying risks and recommending critical repairs

    • Identification of redevelopment and alternative use opportunities within current and proposed zoning controls

    • Recommendations for due diligence investigations and required third-party expert reports prior to marketing

    • Engagement of an independent Valuer

    • Engagement of an expert Town Planner

    • Review of various sale methods and recommendation of the most appropriate approach

    • Assessment of sale and lease-back opportunities and associated risks

    • Estimated marketing and disposal budget for each property

    • Recommended order of sale and indicative campaign timing

  • We delivered a clear, structured disposal strategy that mapped a practical pathway forward for Council.

    By consolidating multiple complex considerations into a single cohesive plan, we enabled informed decision-making and provided confidence around risk management, timing, and market approach.

    The result was a strategic, well-supported framework to guide the orderly disposal of the portfolio.
