COMMERCIAL

Asset repositioning

Offices, retail and whole buildings that are under-let, dated or mis-used, bought or advised on, repositioned, and sold or held as stabilised income.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Owners who want more from a building, and investors looking for one.

Building owners

You hold an office, retail or mixed-use asset that is under-let or dated. We plan the repositioning and run it, or find the right buyer for it as it stands.

Investors

You want value-add commercial property in Dubai. We source off-market buildings and floors, underwrite them, and take you through acquisition.

Family offices and funds

You want a partner on the ground for acquisitions, repositioning and exits, with plain reporting at every stage.

THE LEVERS

Four ways a building earns more.

01Refurbishment and fit-outLobbies, common areas, MEP and floor plates brought up to what today’s tenants expect.
02Re-tenantingBetter covenants, better tenant mix and leases restructured for income that holds.
03Change of useOffice to residential, retail to clinic or hospitality, subject to the relevant approvals.
04Strata and unit salesWhole buildings or floors subdivided and sold unit by unit where that maximises the exit.
