Compulsory acquisitions, valuations and compensation

Urbis has a team of experts in all of the major east coast cities, ready to assist those affected by, or involved with, compulsory acquisition.

We understand the complexities of the compulsory acquisition process, and leverage our multi-disciplinary skill-set–real estate experts, town planners, heritage advisors, urban designers, social advisors and property economists–to ensure our compensation assessments are fair and accurate.

We work with lawyers, developers, home and business owners, institutions, private investors and constructing authorities, to assist in compulsory acquisition, infrastructure contributions, negotiated sales and dispute resolution. We also advise Governments and acquiring authorities on certain projects, in cost forecasting, highest and best use analysis, value capture, compensation estimates and advising on fair compensation.

We provide expert evidence to the courts, and independent representation at mediation hearings and valuers conferences for both dispossessed owners and acquiring authorities.
