The method
Five layers, weighted to your mandate.
Select what you are buying for and the framework shows which layers carry the most weight.
Location potential
Macro corridor, micro-market, infrastructure trajectory and demand absorption.
Developer credibility
Delivery history, financial health, RERA standing and post-handover support.
Rental yield
Realistic gross and net yield, modelled after vacancy, maintenance and tenant grade. Not the gross figure a brochure quotes.
Exit liquidity
Secondary market depth, time-to-sell benchmarks and how price behaves in a down cycle.
Long-term position
Ten-year scenarios, tax efficiency, and fit against what you already own.
Layer 04 exists because markets fall. We form a view on the exit before we form a view on the entry, and we record the conditions under which we would withdraw a recommendation.
What you receive
The assessment is a document, not a conversation.
The evaluation note
Findings against all five layers, the corridor thesis, the expected hold period, and the route out. Signed by all three partners.
The withdrawal conditions
What would have to happen for us to change our recommendation. Written before you buy, so it cannot be rewritten afterwards.
The commission position
What the developer pays us on that project, disclosed on request, so you can weigh the recommendation knowing how we are paid.
The difference
What changes when there is a method.
Governance
Approved by partners who are not paid on the sale.
The operating partner runs the market business and is compensated on it. The other two hold governance roles with no transaction-linked compensation, and they approve the recommended list. This is a structure, not a promise, and it is documented in the firm's governance charter.
Make property decisions with the working shown.
Buy what stands up to five layers of scrutiny. Then let someone else deal with the tenants.
