Real estate and construction

Property investors, developers and construction groups retain Tacitude for portfolio, strategy, retrofit, turnaround and construction operations projects, opened by leadership, asset management and project delivery teams.

Interest rates set the cost of financing and the value of each asset, and hybrid work and online retail change the demand for offices and shops. Construction margins depend on material and labor costs, contract terms and the share of building work done off site.

Projects companies bring us

  1. Which office buildings should we sell, convert or keep, and where should we reinvest the proceeds?

  2. Should we enter build-to-rent housing as developer, owner or both?

  4. How do we restore margins in our construction business after a run of loss-making fixed-price contracts?

    Margin by project and contract type, the claims we can recover and the bids we should stop making.

  5. Should we move part of our building work to off-site manufacturing, and for which project types?
