S2 E4 - Exploring Successful Land Deals in London With Andrew Cox of Savills
In episode 4 of Series II, we were delighted to have one of the Directors from the Savills London land & development team. His team delivered over £900m worth of transactions in 2022, making them one of the most successful in the Capital, and have historically been at the forefront of insights and deal-making amongst the big agencies.
Andrew engaged with us about adjusting vendor expectations, good bidding process, modelling land values, planning and why sites come back on the market.
In the hot seat as cohost for this episode’s dive into London land is Director of Gage Properties, Rafael Baiao.
Gage Properties, based in London and accredited Real Developer in 2022, has delivered more than 10 previous projects and has been highly active in the community since joining.
Rafael came to the meeting armed with industry magazines and articles, so you’ll hear his enthusiasm which led to some authentic real conversations with the Savills senior man!
