General Business Strategy

M21 Advisory has the qualifications and experience to assist our clients in the establishment or implementation of business strategy.  We believe that an organisation’s strategy is the most important foundation to building a sustainably successful business.  Whilst businesses may find short-term success in the absence of a robust strategy, long term prosperity is only achieved through planning for it.

Transaction & Commercial Advisory

M21 Advisory has had exposure to a wide range of property sector transactions including;

The directors of M21 Advisory have personally been responsible for the negotiation and securing of some of the largest urban regeneration projects in Australia.

Real Estate & Portfolio Strategy

We believe that having a succinct and well understood real estate strategy is one of the cornerstones of any successful organization involved in real estate.  M21 Advisory can lead or assist in the establishment or review of an organisation’s real estate strategy or portfolio strategy.

We understand that short term and day-to-day issues can consume managers’ time.  It is easy to lose focus on the big picture and not ask ourselves the important questions that will set us up for success.  Why are we here?  What are we good at?  What markets are we and should we be in?  What is our competitive advantage?  M21 Advisory is ready to assist in establishing your organisation’s property strategy.

Capital Strategy & Execution

We have extensive experience in arranging funding for large real estate transactions.  We work to establish the most appropriate funding structure for our clients based on their particular needs and reflecting the aspects of the transaction.

Our focus in developing and delivering a capital solution for our clients includes aspects such as:

Development Management

Development management requires the careful control and management of a wide variety of variables and a disciple approach to all phases from market research / inception through to settlement and completion.  Subsequently, the construction phase of projects requires the capacity to work within tight cost, time and quality parameters.
