Work / Property
You screened a hundred sites this year.You closed one.The ninety-nine cost you the year.
The acquisitions analyst, the underwriter, the planner, the QS, the project manager, the asset manager — at a large firm these are six people. At a small firm they are one person, or none.
The work does not shrink to fit the team. The hundred-page feasibility still has to be written. The comp set still has to be built. The consent narrative still has to be drafted, the tender still has to be reviewed, the asset still has to be tracked. The work gets done at midnight, or it gets done badly, or it gets skipped.
Tacita does the work.
The work
Source. We screen listings, off-market signals, and parcel data against your acquisition criteria - zone, density, height, frontage, fall, hazards, the things that decide whether a site is worth a closer look. Local planning controls and physical constraints are applied at the parcel level, wherever you operate. The output is a short list of candidates with the binding constraints already identified. The hundred-site funnel becomes a thirty-site funnel before you commit a week to any of them.
Underwrite. For any candidate, we build the feasibility your senior analyst would build, set against what you mean to do with the site. Multiple valuation models run in parallel - discounted cash flow, residual land value, end-value variants - with the spread visible and the inputs that move the answer marked. Comparable evidence is plotted against bed, bath, and area-matched stock in the surrounding suburbs. Construction costs are benchmarked against current market rates and adjusted for location. You receive one document - the document you would otherwise have spent the week writing yourself.
Consent and build. We draft the planning-compliance work for your consultants to mark up. Controls extracted against the local statutory instruments. Design guidelines checked end-to-end. First-draft planning narratives. During construction, builder quotes are benchmarked against market rates, variations are flagged, progress claims are reviewed against the cost plan.
Hold and exit. For the assets you hold, we track performance against the thesis you set when you bought them. Leasing analytics, rent-roll movement, cap-rate drift against comparable transactions, exit-timing signals for the deals you mean to recycle. Quiet for those who hold. Sharper for those who don't.
Our proposition
Where we'd start.
Bring us a site you've been hovering on - the one you've been meaning to underwrite for a month but haven't found the week for. We do the feasibility. You read it. You decide whether the work matches what your senior team would produce.
The work is the proof.
We work under standard NDA. Site-level and counterparty-identifying information stays inside the engagement.
Show us the site you're hovering on.
Past it is the house in Palm Beach.
