The engagement
Each engagement begins with the property or requirement, the decision to be made, and the scope of work. We then gather the relevant records and market evidence, present our findings, and carry out any approved transaction assignment.
Engagement stages
Not every assignment requires every stage. Research or advisory work may conclude with a written analysis; brokerage assignments continue through market engagement, negotiation, diligence, and closing or occupancy.
We identify the client, property or requirement, objective, timing, representation needs, and known constraints before defining the scope.
Submarket, comparable, and supply-demand work scoped to the decision at hand. The research is done before the recommendation, not after it.
A written recommendation of route and terms: what we would do, in what order, and why the evidence supports it.
Marketing, negotiation, and diligence coordination through closing, with the written position as the reference point.
Post-closing questions, the records of the engagement, and the next decision when it arrives.
The recommendation follows the documented evidence.
Preparation
Scope and conflicts review is more useful when four things are in hand.
Held in confidence. Information shared with LEYDARS in an enquiry or an engagement is held in confidence. A first conversation creates no obligation on either side; a process begins only when you decide it should, on terms agreed in writing.
Stage one
Write to us with the property or requirement, the markets, the objective, and the timing, or put time directly on the calendar.
