Landowners

Unlock more value from your land.

Many property owners (and real estate agents) don’t realise the full potential or value of their land.

That’s where Walkabout Properties can help.

Whether you’re looking to sell, want to retain ownership or are simply curious about development, we’ll help you understand your options and recommend the best approach.

No obligations. No pressure.

Just honest advice from a developer who does this every day.

Option 1: Sell Directly

If a simple, hassle-free sale is your ideal outcome, we may be able to purchase your property directly.

This saves on agent commissions, marketing costs and the stress and work involved in preparing the home for sale.  

We can settle early or offer flexible settlement terms and a straightforward process designed to make selling easier for you.

Option 2: Subdivide While You Stay

Love where you live but you don’t need all of the land?

Depending on your property’s location, you may be able to subdivide. You’ll remain in your home while unlocking equity.

We’ll assess what’s possible and manage the entire process from planning to completion.

Option 3: Develop Together

Want to maximise your equity without the stress of managing the project yourself?

We can partner with you.  

You can achieve the best results while knowing an experienced developer is managing the approvals, consultants and construction.

Option 4: Development Done For You

Want to retain ownership but also transform your property into a long-term wealth-building asset?

Let us manage the development on your behalf. 

From feasibility to completion, we’ll oversee every stage of the project and keep you informed along the way.

Property Development Assessment

Understand What Could Be Possible With Your Property and Unlock Your Property’s Maximum Potential

Whether you already own a property, are considering buying an investment property or have found a potential development site, understanding what you could do with the property and the associated costs is an important first step.

Remove the guesswork and the stress by having an experienced property developer look over the property. We’ll help you understand what may be possible, what it could cost, the potential value created and the risks or issues you may need to consider.

The aim is to give you a clearer picture of the opportunity before you spend significant time or money pursuing it.

What Will We Assess?

Every property is different.
We’ll look at the property, understand your goals and what you’re hoping to achieve and the development options that may be worth exploring.
Depending on the property, we’ll consider:

– What development options may be possible
– Indicative development and construction costs
– Professional, authority and other project costs
– Potential end values
– The approximate value or profit the development could create
– Key risks, costs or assumptions that may need further investigation

It’s not just about whether a property can potentially be developed. It’s about ensuring the numbers make sense and the proposed development is financially viable.

We’ll help you understand what the opportunity could look like and whether it’s worth taking the next step.

Who Is It For?

Property Owners

You own a property and want to understand what you could potentially do with it.

You may be able to subdivide, create an additional lot or explore another development option.

We’ll help you understand what may be possible, the likely costs involved and whether developing the property could make financial sense before you start spending money on plans and consultants.

Property Investors

You want to buy property more strategically by looking beyond today’s rental return and understanding its future development potential.

A Property Development Assessment can help you identify properties with greater potential and understand what it may cost to develop the property versus the additional value that could be created.

Property Developers and Site Buyers

You’ve found a potential development site and want an experienced developer to look over the opportunity before you commit.

We’ll review the strategy and numbers, challenge your assumptions and look for risks or costs you may have missed.

What Happens Next?

Once we’ve reviewed the property and the numbers, we’ll explain what you need to investigate next and who you may need advice from, such as town planners, engineers, surveyors or other specialists.

And if the property or the numbers don’t look right, we’ll tell you that too.

The purpose of the assessment is simple:

Understand what could be possible.
Understand the costs involved.
Understand the potential returns.
Then decide whether it’s worth pursuing.
