Who we help
- Investors
- Developers and housebuilders
- Landowners
- Operators
- Housing associations
- Local authorities and public-sector partners
Whatever the starting point, we help our clients understand what needs to happen, who needs to be involved and how to move from ambition to delivery.
For an investor new to Scotland, that might mean a clear view of the market, the policy landscape and the partners worth talking to. For a housebuilder or landowner, it might mean finding long-term rental capital that allows a site to come forward sooner. For a local authority or housing association, it might mean shaping a partnership that brings in private investment while meeting public objectives.
Our residential investment advice draws on hands-on experience of Build to Rent, Single Family Rental, Mid-Market Rent and Intermediate Rent, together with the land and development expertise of Justin Lamb Associates. Our public-sector and policy work means we understand how proposals will be received by government and local authorities before they are put forward.
We work as a small, senior team. The people you meet are the people who do the work, from first conversation through to delivery.
