The Challenge: The vendor sought to pivot a prime Collingwood asset from a traditional 'Build-to-Sell' model to a 'Build-to-Rent' (BTR) institutional product. Converting an existing permit demands a complete reconstruction of the revenue model. The critical friction point was market scepticism. Institutional capital required concrete proof that the local demographic depth could support the underwriting assumptions needed for a 'Fund-Through' transaction structure.
The Intervention: Working within the transaction team, Efe prepared property feasibility modelling and market analysis for the proposed build-to-rent scheme. The work examined rental-market depth and unit mix and supported the team’s commercial assessment.
Our Impact:
Financial Rigour: We built and managed the detailed 3-way feasibility modelling that substantiated the $250m+ transaction value. This provided the granular data required for institutional due diligence.
Market Intelligence: We conducted demographic analysis to test unit-mix and typology assumptions. This ensured the proposed design yield aligned with real-world renter depth.
Commercial Support: We prepared the investment narrative and marketing materials. These documents translated complex project metrics into clear commercial propositions for capital partners.
Transaction Enablement: Prepared analytical material explaining the scheme’s commercial assumptions and organised information for the transaction team’s due-diligence process.
