How We Can Help

Chapman Shanks is an independent, service oriented consultancy group providing occupiers of commercial property with a range of professional advisory services that can be tailored to each clients’ unique circumstances.

We serve occupiers of both office and industrial buildings in all locations across Australia.  Our emphasis on developing sustainable relationships with our clients’ means that we become you single point of contact for all property related matters be they strategic or market testing.

The key is that we only represent you, the occupiers, we have no affiliation with property owners or agents so you have the confidence that your best interests are being served. We identify all property options from all sources with no bias giving you the confidence that all our qualitative and quantitative analysis is completely impartial.

The Chapman Shanks Difference

Chapman Shanks does not try to take over the entire process, for example we do not do design or fit out or move management but will assist you in identifying those specialist firms best suited to providing these services or indeed work with your preferred partners.  We know what we are good at and focus on our key skills to deliver the best results for you whilst you are safe in the knowledge that there are no hidden margins or arrangements between suppliers.

Our objective is to streamline the process, saving you both time and money whilst maximising your lease flexibility to reduce the need for future real estate change, i.e. we seek to future proof your solution against business change.  In addition you are assured of a solid audit trail, (documentary evidence), demonstrating why decisions have been made and the supporting information in the event that such decisions are ever called into question.
