For Investors

Historic Buildings are high-value assets, but they come with a risk; our job is to reduce it early.

For Investors

In collaboration with investors and asset owners, we provide early strategic for listed and historic buildings, ensuring is achieved before any significant commitments are made.

​

Our role involves assessing constraints, evaluating viable options, and defining realistic consent to enable clients to understand risk, opportunity, and deliverability from the outset.

 

By integrating conservation expertise with a pragmatic approach, we facilitate informed decision-making and well-considered changes within complex heritage contexts.

The problem we solve

Historic and listed buildings carry inherent uncertainty:
heritage constraints, consent risk, technical unknowns, and stakeholder complexity.

For investors, the real risk is not the building; it is making decisions without clarity.

​

We help investors understand:

  • What is realistically possible

  • What permissions will be required, and in what order

  • Where the real risks and pressure points sit

  • Whether a project is worth proceeding with at all

 

Our role is to turn uncertainty into clear, informed decision-making, early enough for it to matter.

.

How we help investors

We work at the point where decisions still have leverage.

 

Our involvement typically includes:

  • early strategic due diligence

  • identification of heritage and planning constraints

  • realistic options appraisal

  • consent and engagement strategy

  • programme and phasing logic

 

We lead with senior expertise from day one, prioritising realism over optimism and clarity over reassurance.

 

We do not sell designs in search of permission.

 

We help define what will actually be consentable and deliverable.
