Turn Your Land Into a Development Opportunity

Explore Joint Venture and development opportunities with Aventrix Realty. We help landowners understand their objectives, identify suitable development opportunities and coordinate discussions with potential development partners.

The Basics

What Is a Joint Venture?

A Joint Venture is a development arrangement in which a landowner contributes the property, or agreed development rights, and a development partner takes on agreed development responsibilities. The commercial benefits are then shared according to terms both parties agree to.

It allows a landowner to take part in the development of their property without having to undertake the entire development process on their own. What each party contributes, and what each party receives, is set out in the Joint Venture agreement.

  1. LandownerOwns the property
  2. Land / Agreed Development RightsContributed to the project
  3. Joint Venture AgreementSets out terms and responsibilities
  4. Development PartnerUndertakes agreed responsibilities
  5. Project DevelopmentPlanning, approvals and construction
  6. Agreed Entitlement / BenefitDelivered as per the agreement
Why Consider a Joint Venture?

Your Land Can Do More Than Simply Remain an Asset

Not every landowner wants an outright sale. Some would rather take part in what their land can become, through a development arrangement shaped around their own priorities.

What is possible depends on the property, the project and the terms agreed. Returns and appreciation are not guaranteed.

Depending on the arrangement, a Joint Venture may allow you to:

  • Retain developed property
  • Receive an agreed share of developed units or area
  • Partially monetise your entitlement
  • Combine property entitlement with financial consideration
  • Hold developed units as a long-term investment
  • Work with a development partner instead of developing on your own
  • Explore redevelopment of an existing property
Flexible Structures

Your Land. Your Objective. Your Structure.

There is no one-size-fits-all Joint Venture structure.

Every landowner starts with a different objective. Depending on the project structure, feasibility and mutually agreed terms, the arrangement can be shaped in different ways.

A

Retain Developed Property

Receive your entitlement as developed units or area and keep them, for your family's use or for the future.

B

Partial Monetisation

Retain part of your entitlement and sell another part, where the project structure allows it.

C

Property + Financial Consideration

A combination of developed property and a financial component, subject to the terms agreed with the development partner.

D

Long-Term Holding

Hold developed units as a long-term asset, for your own use or for rental, depending on your plans.

E

Redevelopment

For older buildings or under-used properties, explore whether redevelopment is feasible and what it could involve.

F

Custom Project Structure

Where several owners, larger parcels or specific objectives are involved, the structure can be tailored to the project, subject to feasibility.

Not every structure is available for every property. What is possible depends on feasibility and the terms agreed between the parties.

Roles in a Joint Venture

What the Development Partner May Bring

The exact responsibilities of the development partner are defined by the project structure and final agreement.

The landowner typically contributes

  • The land or agreed development rights
  • Ownership and title documents
  • Consent of all relevant owners
  • Cooperation as set out in the agreement

Depending on the agreed structure, the development partner may bring

  • Project planning
  • Architectural coordination

Commercial Terms

Commercial Structures Are Project-Specific

How the benefits of a Joint Venture are shared is decided project by project. Common approaches include:

A

Development / Area / Unit Share

The landowner receives an agreed share of the developed area or units, and the development partner retains the rest.

B

Revenue Share

The parties share the sale proceeds of the project in agreed proportions, instead of dividing the built area.

C

Property + Financial Consideration

The landowner receives developed property along with an agreed financial component.

D

Hybrid Structure

A combination of the above, shaped around the property and the objectives of both parties.

Commercial terms depend on factors such as

  • Land value
  • Location
  • Land extent
  • Development potential
  • Project size
  • Construction cost
  • Funding requirements
  • Development risk
  • Responsibilities of each party
  • Market conditions
  • Negotiation between the parties

There is no standard sharing ratio. Any ratio is arrived at through feasibility and negotiation, and is set out in the final agreement.

Before You Agree

Look Beyond the Share Percentage

The important question is not only “What percentage do I receive?” but “What exactly am I receiving, what responsibilities apply to each party, and under what conditions will the entitlement be delivered?”

Points a landowner should understand clearly

Your Priorities

We Start With Your Objective

Two landowners with similar plots can want very different things. Before discussing any structure, we take time to understand what you actually want from your property.

Maximum Value Exploration

Understanding what the land could achieve through development.

Property Retention

Keeping developed property within the family.

Partial Sale / Monetisation

Selling part of the entitlement and retaining the rest.

Long-Term Investment

Holding developed units for the years ahead.

Liquidity Requirement

Needing funds at a particular stage.

Hands-Off Development

Taking part without managing the development yourself.

Family-Owned or Jointly Owned Property

Bringing several owners to a shared decision.

Redevelopment

Giving an older building or under-used plot a new purpose.

Shared Ownership

When a Property Has Multiple Owners

Many properties are held by families or by several co-owners. In such cases, a few additional points need to be addressed as discussions move forward:

  • Ownership interests
  • Consent of all relevant owners
  • Distribution of entitlement
  • Decision-making
  • Authority to negotiate
  • Documentation
  • Succession or legal considerations, where applicable
Due Diligence

Before Development Comes Verification

Before any development commitment is made, the property needs to be reviewed carefully. This typically covers:

  • Title and ownership
  • Encumbrances
  • Survey and measurements
  • Access
  • Existing structures
  • Existing occupants or tenants, where applicable
  • Planning and development parameters
  • Existing liabilities
  • Other project-specific matters

Aventrix Realty facilitates coordination. Legal, title, technical, tax and statutory matters should be independently reviewed by appropriately qualified professionals.

The Process

From Land to Development

A typical sequence. The time each stage takes depends on the property, the parties and the project.

What Makes a Joint Venture Work

Alignment Before Agreement

A Joint Venture is more likely to move forward smoothly when these elements are aligned before the agreement is signed.

Questions

Joint Venture FAQs

Not necessarily. In a Joint Venture, the landowner contributes the land or agreed development rights in return for an agreed entitlement, instead of an outright sale. How ownership and rights are dealt with is set out in the agreement and should be reviewed with your legal adviser.

Depending on the project structure and the terms agreed, a landowner may receive their entitlement as developed units or area and retain them.

In some structures, yes. Whether, and when, part of an entitlement can be sold depends on the agreement and the project.

No. There is no standard ratio. The share depends on factors such as land value, location, development potential, construction cost, funding and the responsibilities of each party, and is settled through negotiation.

No. Aventrix Realty works as an advisory and coordination partner. Construction and other development responsibilities are undertaken by the development partner, as defined in the final agreement.

It varies. Assessment, partner discussions, due diligence, documentation, approvals and construction each take time, and the overall timeline depends on the property and the project. Agreed timelines are recorded in the agreement.

Yes. Co-owners can approach us together. Consent of all relevant owners, authority to negotiate and the distribution of entitlement will need to be addressed as discussions progress.

No. Every property is subject to preliminary evaluation and project feasibility. Title, access, extent, location and development parameters all affect whether a Joint Venture is practical.

Legal documentation should be prepared and reviewed by qualified legal professionals. Aventrix Realty coordinates between the parties and the professionals involved, but does not provide legal advice.

Through discussion and negotiation between the landowner and the development partner, based on feasibility, the landowner's objective and the responsibilities of each party. The agreed terms are then recorded in the final agreement.
