Developement & Project Management

Developing more for less

Providing development advice, whether to developers, investors or owner occupiers requires detailed knowledge of the local law, political situation and the players in the market. Over the years Robert Mathieson has given clients significant competitive advantage in Switzerland and elsewhere in Europe. Whilst many clients will instruct us to perform a certain function, such as acquiring a site or project managing the construction process, others require advice on feasibility of development, extension, modification or upgrading land and buildings and identifying the impact of potential additional investment on cash flow, value generation, productivity or other forms of optimisation. We pride ourselves in providing a range of services that can offer anything from single functions to in depth, multi-disciplinary advice. We provide development, investment and advisory services to our clients in 8 European countries and, via our international partners, across the world.

Site and building analysis

The development of rational and coherent development and investment strategies requires a full understanding of the client and detailed analysis of their existing portfolios of occupied and/or investment properties as well as the subject site and building. With techniques and tools developed over three decades we are able to provide clients with the means to develop and implement appropriate and evolving strategies to meet their specific needs and targets. In particular we help clients identify opportunities to:

Increase income
Reduce costs
Optimise space use
Add value via refurbishment, extension or redevelopment of part or all

Marketing & market research

The marketing of developments requires an understanding of the market and the place of the property within it. We put together and advise the client on the best marketing plan to meet their objectives, whether financial, social or other. We then deliver a programme that is tailored to the project to ensure optimal coverage at the right moment to achieve the goal.
