There are a number of key services some of which are essential, others which are highly recommended which Validus provides in order to facilitate a successful land / commercial property investment and development project.

Planning status
Planning permission is obviously mandatory for development projects. In some countries in certain circumstances it is relatively straight forward; in others it is more complex. For example in Poland there are areas – including in Warsaw – where there is no local development plan, which determines whether a plot is permitted for development. In this case planning applications must be made to local authorities after an appraisal of the likelihood planning permission will be granted. Validus can undertake all this type of work on your behalf using our local knowledge and expertise.

Urban development analysis
Crucial to the future value of the development is the surrounding infrastructure, for example transport links, and any planned investment in public infrastructure and/or new developments, schools, malls, etc. Validus can carry out an analysis of the prospects for the locality.

Overview of the local property market
Validus can deliver an analysis on the property market in the immediate vicinity including comparable capital values and rental yields as well as owner and occupier demographics.

Survey and valuation
Depending on the planned development of the real-estate, different types of survey may be required. For example, some multi-storey developments require a geodesic survey of the land and in certain cases an archaeological survey may be required.

When investing in a protected building, the opinion of a historian may be beneficial in understanding how to develop / renovate to gain maximum value. The Validus network can provide you with all such services as well as providing a fair market value of the plot / development.
