Property reports / strategic analysis

Choose the depth that fits the decision.

From a focused first look to detailed scenario, cost and risk analysis, our reports turn scattered property information into a clearer path forward.

Four ways to start

A useful answer begins with the right scope.

Choose an affordable research draft, a defined human-checked report, or bring us a more complex brief for a tailored scope and proposal.

Focused first pass

Tailored engagement

Customscope and proposal

Custom Analysis

For questions that do not fit a fixed template, including complex, multi-title, commercial, mixed-use, organisation-led or consultant-supported work.

  • Scope built around your actual decision
  • Additional scenarios or portfolio-level questions
  • Deeper financial, operating or housing-use analysis
  • External specialist input identified where required

All reports are preliminary desktop decision support. The $79 CMA Research Draft is not a valuation or formal agent appraisal. None of these services replaces valuation, legal, tax, financial, planning, engineering, building, surveying or other appropriately qualified professional advice.

For real-estate agencies

A lower-cost research desk for routine property questions.

Use the CMA Research Draft for early prospecting, appraisal preparation and client conversations where a full principal-reviewed report is not yet justified.

We can scope an agency arrangement with monthly credits, a shared intake process and office-level access. Licensed comparable-data costs and any human review tier are kept explicit rather than hidden in the per-report price.

05

Agency pilot

$199/month for five research drafts, then $39 per additional draft, subject to final data and support scope.

06

Reviewed upgrade

Add a human-reviewed CMA workflow when verified comparable evidence and a professional opinion are required.

07

Bring your own data

Connect an authorised agency or licensed data source; we do not scrape REA or bypass provider terms.

What detailed analysis adds

Understand the pathway, not only the property.

A promising idea can still fail because of delivery cost, finance, timing, regulation, operating complexity or an unrealistic exit assumption.

The Property Potential Review connects these moving parts. It identifies plausible pathways, makes assumptions visible, tests what changes when costs or values move, and sets out the questions that need confirmation before you commit capital.

01

Can it be done?

Public planning context, site constraints, current use and the approvals or specialist checks likely to matter.

02

Can it be funded?

Acquisition, holding, consultant, approval, construction, finance, contingency and operating assumptions where relevant.

03

Will it work in practice?

Demand, tenancy or operating realities, delivery sequencing, downside scenarios and practical next decision gates.

A rare combination of perspectives

Property decisions sit inside financial, operational and human systems.

Steven Purcell brings experience that crosses those boundaries: a decade as a business finance manager, leadership of several companies, charity board service, and practical assistance across housing, development and small business.

For the past decade he has also served as general manager of a specialist homelessness service, providing direct insight into housing pressure, tenancy stability, service delivery and the gap between a theoretical housing model and one that works for people.

Study in physics and computational science, together with his work as a developer, informs a structured approach to evidence, modelling, systems and uncertainty.
