How an acquisition mandate runs, in practice.
The scenarios below illustrate the strategy, underwriting and negotiation approach described on our services page. They are representative of our methodology rather than a record of a specific client transaction.
An SMSF Commercial Acquisition Built Around Covenant Strength
A self-managed super fund trustee sought a single-tenant commercial holding to deliver a stable net yield inside the fund, with a strong covenant, minimal capital works exposure and a lease term long enough to satisfy the trustees' income planning.
Negotiation-Only Engagement on an Identified Industrial Asset
A private investor had already identified an industrial property through a listed campaign and asked Hastings Beaumont to independently underwrite the asset and manage negotiation and settlement.
Development Site Acquisition Tested Against Highest and Best Use
A developer client sought an infill site suitable for a medium-density residential product, requiring the site to be tested against planning controls and residual land value before any offer was considered.
A Principal Residence Secured in a Competitive Campaign
A family relocating to Brisbane engaged Hastings Beaumont to identify and secure a principal residence in a tightly held inner-suburban pocket, within a defined budget and school catchment.
