For investors
Investment potential
A practical investor approach is: benchmark rents using comparable towers, subtract service charges and annual costs, then stress-test vacancy. For many Downtown assets, capital preservation and liquidity can be as important as net yield.

Before you buy
Checklist for investors
Seven checks we run with clients before committing to a waterfront luxury asset.
01
Define your goal: end-use, executive long-term rent, short-stay (where permitted), or capital growth
02
Choose a view strategy: iconic views vs value units with stronger net yield
03
Compare towers: maintenance reputation, service charges, amenities, parking and lift performance
04
Validate layout: usable space, natural light, balcony configuration, storage
05
Consider noise/footfall: boulevard-facing and attraction-facing units can be lively—confirm your preference
06
Run numbers with net yield focus: service charges, furnishing, management and realistic rent range
