Two Big Hamptons Homes

Andy approached us in mid 2020 with a common brief: Find him a profitable development project site +/- $1.3m, oversee all planning and design, tender the build, and assist with contract appointments.

We quickly zeroed in on a few suburbs that suited his parameters at the time and we identified a couple suitable sites within a fortnight. Our preliminary feasibility studies provided high level estimates of market values, site yields, costs, equity/debt requirements, and profitability.

Being interstate, we provided Andy with detailed suburb profiles that explained why these target areas suited him. He really liked this one, and we quickly firmed up our feasibility study, with feedback from Council, our preferred Town Planner, Arborist, Land Surveyor, Conveyancer and a couple local agents.

After purchasing the property, I project managed the entire design process and tied Andy in when his input was required. But given that he is a busy IT Professional and I develop property for a living, he was happy to let me run it with maximum discretion.

We moved onto completing build documentation – architectural drawings, civil and structural engineering, build specifications, etc. We tendered the build to three suitable builders, and assisted Andy in negotiating a fixed price build contract.

The project is nearly complete and Andy will be cleaning up. We have since purchased him another project.
