ABOUT US

Services

We offer complete end-to-end property development services.

STRATEGIC ADVISORY

Getting started can take a dozen or more critical steps, from master programme development through to procuring tenants. We start with pre-development – risk assessments, site due diligence and concept design, feasibility modelling and returns analysis.

DASL can prepare the development brief and budget, handle consenting and permits, manage consultants, and site due diligence.

DEVELOPMENT ACQUISITION

This is the first step on the development ladder. It’s where DASL assesses viability and creates the best solution. This is deep dive work – analysis and market research, demographics, business case, due diligence, contract negotiation.

Finance is brought into play with modelling, evaluation and sourcing capital. It’s identifying and acquiring sites, fitting them to your portfolio. It’s the start of the design concept and master planning phase.

PROJECT SETUP

This is where one of DASL’s development managers with the right experience, network and contacts can make all the difference to your project. Due diligence, feasibility, cashflow, risk management – these run through the project until the day you sign off.

Design continues as you move from concept to detailed and revised, and as you gain consents. Consultants, sales and marketing come into play, along with a display suite.

PROJECT DELIVERY

On time and on budget to the standard you expect. There’s no other way we deliver a project. A good set-up phase will benefit delivery. This is the heavy lifting stage – procurement, tendering, negotiating building contracts, site management.

To this we add active management of risks, finance, cost control and valuations along with variations. Reporting, scheduling and RFI are new elements to be managed. There’s quality control. Design becomes detailed, defects are managed, close-out is planned.

Our mission?

To create new and lasting communities in the right areas.

SEAMLESS DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

We measure success through satisfied returning clientele, our contributions to completed projects, and the liveable spaces we help clients to create.

We are only as good as our last piece of work. This means we’re never in a position of resting on our laurels.

When DASL puts its name to a project, the reputation as well as each individual are at stake. We don’t just sell you our time, we invest our name in a project we believe in.
