The division provides clients with professional and sound advice relating to specific transactions from both an investment and funding perspective. The division was established in 2009, prompted in part by the prevailing financial crisis and its impact on property investments. It also addressed a gap in the market for professional service in the area of investment and financial structuring.

Customer requirements are central and a solution driven approach is taken to sourcing opportunities across the full spectrum of property investment fields.

The services offered by 5th Avenue Properties include:

• Optimal transaction structuring
• Specific financial structures such as ‘sale and leaseback’ transactions, leveraged leasebacks, refinancing and balance sheet re-engineering
• General property investment advisory services and research
