Four Critical Questions

  • 1. Neighbours Price Sharing

    If you cooperate with your neighbours, are you getting a fair deal? The big risk of price sharing based on land area only is you losing value to them without knowing it.

  • 2. Dealing With Developers

    Do you want to be one of the many, many property owners that thought they negotiated a good sale to a developer when it’s actually a big win for the developer? Many developers’ business models rely on buying from confident but inexperienced property owners.

  • 3. Developer Door Knocking

    How often does a property owner without development experience do well out of a deal with a developer that knocks on their door? Almost never.

  • 4. Maximising Your Value

    Have you implemented any expert strategies to maximise your price?

  • The Property Owner Opportunity

    Many property owners in the targeted areas have an unprecedented opportunity to access very substantial uplift in property value, in some cases being multiples of the pre-TOD value.

  • The Property Owner’s Biggest Risks

    Property owners have detailed knowledge of their property and its value. Many try to deal with developers and cooperate with their neighbours, either directly or via an agent, without experience of property development.

    Those property owners are almost certain to gift value to the developers either in price or defective sale terms that costs them money and time.

    Cooperating with neighbours based on property land area is very often a flawed method and risks giving value and money that should be yours to a neighbour.
