Silverstone Property Group is a privately-owned commercial real estate investment company founded in Auckland in 2007. Working with a small group of long-standing private and institutional partners, the firm has successfully acquired and developed multiple assets during that time.
Drawing upon the decades of experience of its principals, partners and the skill sets of the Silverstone team, the company has been able to identify many successful real estate investment opportunities, produce exceptional investment performance and provide lasting positive impacts on the tenants, clients, partners and communities it serves.
Specialising in medium to high density projects, we focus on properties that provide sustained rental and capital growth and use our expertise in redevelopment and repurposing to continuously improve value.
Silverstone has an established track record of success in the acquisition, consenting, development, renovation and repositioning of office, hotel, residential, social housing, retail and mixed use properties within the Auckland region.
We undertake all commercial property management services of these properties via our internal asset management team. Our sister company Blackstone Hospitality manages our hotel and short term accommodation portfolio and Bspoke Group provides maintenance, cleaning and property services to ensure that the properties in our portfolio are always presented to their best advantage.
ABOUT
EXPERTISE
ACQUISITIONS
Prior to any successful real estate acquisition we plan and implement proactive and thoughtful market and asset research. The Silverstone team prides itself on our ability to evaluate market opportunities before others see them. We use our longstanding relationships with the brokerage and broader real estate community together with our reputation for delivering on our promises to purchase and position unique investment opportunities.
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLANNING AND CONSENTING
The Silverstone team is able to obtain complex development consents by working closely with local authorities, key stakeholders and involving Iwi, local communities and interest groups. This, combined with deep local market knowledge, meticulous planning and decades of experience, results in the best possible consenting and value outcome for our proposed projects.
DEVELOPMENT
With expertise in the development of office, tourism accommodation, hospitality, retail, residential, social housing and mixed-use property, Silverstone has consistently delivered sustainable, high-quality and innovative projects through a formal and robust process of planning and development management. The Silverstone team’s ability to collaborate with the city and communities as well as having access to expert teams of architects, engineers and contractors allows us to optimize results for communities, tenants and investors.
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
We bring a broad range of financial skills to the management of our portfolio. With longstanding experience with a broad range of lenders and institutional partners, Silverstone prepares and presents comprehensive and relevant reporting to stakeholders. We engineer, negotiate and close complex debt and equity funding packages and re-financing of our projects. Our in-house finance team has decades of experience in administering the funding and reporting on complex financial transactions.
LEASING AND ASSET MANAGEMENT
The Silverstone asset management team bring multi-market relationships and multi-cycle experience to the process of leasing and managing our broad based portfolio. Through nimble and diligent execution, we repeatedly outperform the market in moving assets to full occupancy as well as in using our hands-on management style to cultivate and retain tenants. The asset management team has significant expertise in the budgeting and management of operating expenses with an eye to achieving that perfect balance between efficiency and creating exceptional environments for our tenants.
RENOVATION AND REPOSITIONING
Silverstone focuses on recognizing the unrealized value of existing, underperforming assets and successfully executing business plans that unlock that value. Successful property repositioning involves developing a scope of work to address the specific needs of each property including façade and interior renovation, rebranding, building services and structural upgrades and re-tenanting. The Silverstone team has the in-depth problem solving experience necessary to address the frequently unique challenges presented when completing successful renovation and repositioning projects. Our success stories include adaptive re-use, heritage renovation, environmentally impaired sites, and a wide variety of renovations of office, retail, hotel and apartment assets.
