Testimonials
“From assisting us with the purchase of the site to pre-committing tenants, we have been thoroughly happy with the level of service provided. Most importantly, this deal allowed us to begin construction knowing we had already pre-committed 20% of our development which is particularly important in the current financial climate. We are confident that as construction is finalised early next year Colliers will play an even further role in selling out the remaining product in the estate. We would have no hesitation in recommending yourself or Colliers International as marketing agents for any further work.”

“We were suitably impressed by your marketing skills throughout the campaign, including your input on marketing collateral and in framing a marketing pitch that would best suit our target market which mainly consisted of high net worth private investors.
Your efforts in post contract negotiations, including helping to negotiate contract changes, assisting the buyer to obtain finance and with their lengthy due diligence investigations, helped us to achieve an outcome.”
