  • “Auburn Soccer Club has recently entered into an agreement with a developer that will provide us with new Club premises, commercial space that we can lease out to create additional ongoing revenue, and some extra cash. The deal is structured to minimise our risks and protect the Club during the development process.

    We have been fortunate during the process to have benefitted from the advice and assistance of Augusta. Without Augusta’s guidance and hands-on involvement, I doubt that the Club would have secured an outcome as good as it has.

    I and my Board would have no hesitation in recommending Augusta for a similar role.”

  • “I would like to express my thanks for the great support that was received throughout the entire process from Augusta Advisors.

    To me, it was clear that Augusta was extremely knowledgeable as to the construction and negotiation of a development agreement. Both I and our mutual client benefited from having Augusta on board and involved throughout the process.

    I will be recommending Augusta’s services and also look forward to us working collaboratively on the next project.”

  • “I found Augusta to be very knowledgeable, well-connected, and across new and emerging developments relevant to the Society’s situation. Augusta was proactive in their communication at all times; identified solutions (as well as updated them as new information came to hand); and provided sound commercial advice about our property.

    Augusta has an expert team that has proven to be very dependable and reliable with an expert understanding of what is required to achieve the best commercial outcome for their clients.

    I have been extremely satisfied with the interaction I have had with their professional services and advice. I would have no hesitation in choosing to appoint Augusta again.”

  • “Augusta provided the University with a high quality analysis and report which has identified options which the University can pursue in order to achieve its objectives. Their background of direct experience with similar projects gave us confidence that their advice is realistic and achievable.

    The Augusta team was highly professional and the process was collaborative and interactive with University staff and management.

    I would be happy to recommend Augusta’s capability in providing high-level property and development advice on tasks similar to the one completed for Deakin University.”
