Our Process
Our Five-Step
Feasibility Process.
Upload Property Details
Share your property's address with a few basic details: size, floor count, and current use. Takes under two minutes.
Project Data Gathering Session
An instant call with Jodi, our property expert, to gather the details we need and walk through your goals for the site. A short, focused conversation that keeps the five-day clock moving.
Automated Analysis
Our system checks planning history, site constraints, density data, and comparable schemes in your local area. Automating the laborious part is what frees our design team to spend their time on the sketch scheme.
Sketch Scheme Stage
One of our designers will carry out the sketch scheme analysis to determine the best possible layout based on your brief, local comparables, local and national constraints, and the best commercial outcome.
Final Meeting
You'll be sent a video call link after uploading your information. We'll review the completed feasibility together after 5 days, so you can bid, walk away, or move into conveyancing with confidence.
If it's a Go, we can take it forward: planning, design, technical, tender and construction, with the same team throughout.
