Every successful property acquisition begins with a clear understanding of property requirements. Whether you're an investor seeking off-market opportunities, a developer sourcing strategic land, or a corporate tenant looking for space to grow, defining your requirements is critical to aligning your objectives with the right opportunity.
At Fraser Bond, we specialise in translating client briefs into actionable strategies. We work closely with occupiers, landlords, developers, and investors to identify, assess, and secure real estate that matches your specific operational, financial, and long-term goals.
Property requirements refer to the specific criteria a buyer, tenant, or investor outlines when seeking a new space or asset. These can include (but are not limited to):
Location: City, borough, proximity to transport or talent
Asset type: Office, retail, industrial, residential, or mixed-use
Size: Square footage, number of units, or acreage
Budget: Capital expenditure, rental threshold, yield requirements
Timing: Immediate occupation, phased delivery, or development pipeline
Planning status: Outline consent, full permission, or change-of-use potential
Technical features: ESG ratings, floor loading, ceiling heights, parking, etc.
Understanding and prioritising these factors allows Fraser Bond to provide targeted, value-driven property recommendations.
