London Borough of Islington case study

We have advised the LB of Islington on their first major scheme for private sale. This included pricing, market intelligence, development appraisals and in-depth market analysis on their sites. We have worked with their architects, planners, contractors and interior designers on scheme design and unit layouts. We have also helped specify, design and fit the marketing suite and have created a full sales and marketing campaign for the private sale units within the development.

Sion Hill Place, Bath Case Study

Hamptons have been instructed to provide sales and marketing for the development at Sion Hill Place. When we took the instruction the prices for the development were sitting on the higher end for the market we were in. The development consultancy team took it upon ourselves to provide a comparable report which included the following:

─ Informal valuations including unit by unit pricing

─ Comparable evidence taken on different platforms

─ Area demographics

─ Graphs to show average £psf for apartments in the area, as well as heat maps in the centre of Bath and around Sion Hill to compare prices

After our client viewed this report, they decided to reduce the asking prices. Viewing numbers subsequently greatly increased which led to an increase in sales.

5 units | Total GDV- £8,685,000
