SITE / PROPERTY SELECTION

Once a requirement is defined a strategy to achieve its goals and objectives is formulated, and presented to our client for input, clarity, approval and implementation. The targeted markets are then thoroughly researched and all viable (on & off market) options are presented on a matrix basis enabling our client to compare and contrast collectively all options. At that point, depending on the economic environment, offers are presented or Requests For Proposals (RFPs) are sent to the ownerships. The matrix presentation is then again repeated.
