Know what your site can become.

Town planning, property advisory and project management for buyers, investors and developers across Australia.

Planning, approval and delivery, under one roof.

Three arms, one integrated approach

Town planning

Development approvals and strategic planning.

Getting a development approved takes more than submitting forms. We prepare the case, anticipate Council's objections before they arise, and manage the engagement from lodgement to determination. We know how Councils think, because we have worked alongside them.

Clients, in their own words.

“ESTATE found me something off-market, a proper dual occupancy site, well under what it would have gone for at auction.”
InvestorLane Cove

“Our DA was refused. ESTATE took it over, lodged a review of the refusal and got it approved.”
HomeownerRandwick

“I bought this house thinking I could at most put a duplex. ESTATE taught me I could fit four houses, and subdivide them.”
