APPROACH

Quintessential specialises in property regeneration and development, providing tenants inspirational solutions and giving investors exceptional risk-mitigated returns.

Everything we do is driven by our commitment to provide an exceptional experience to our investors — leading to exceptional outcomes.

Our investment approach is dynamic yet simple. We exercise discipline and patience to only acquire properties which meet all of our strict-purchasing criteria.

Upon acquisition, we leverage our in-house expertise in engineering, construction and property management to not only extract value for our investors, but more importantly, mitigate risk. Capital preservation is absolutely fundamental to our approach.

We strive to earn and retain investor trust by always acting with integrity and transparency, managing investors' money as our own.

Our Golden Rules of Property include:

These rules have been embedded in the Quintessential business since establishment and continue to prove themselves in the market.

RULE 1

Always buy property at or below replacement value to ensure a competitive advantage.

RULE 2

Never be blinded by cash-flow as that is the first thing that you can lose in a property.

RULE 3

A good opportunity can be ruined by over-paying or over-levering.

RULE 4

You never go broke making a profit.

RULE 5

Always ask yourself, who the end user for the property is before you buy it.

RULE 6

Patience is the cheapest thing you can buy in property when looking for the right opportunity.

RULE 7

Do not over-complicate property deals. If the strategy can’t be explained on the back of an envelope then don’t do it.

RULE 8

No one will tell you how your investment is going better than your tenant, so listen to them often and learn.

RULE 9

Never fall in love with a property.

RULE 10

Don’t just follow the herd.

TRACK RECORD

We are driven to grow the wealth of our investors
through strategic investments in commercial office
and industrial properties across Australia.

Consistently delivering industry leading returns for investors, our approach allows us to be capital ready, waiting for the right opportunities that meet our strict buying criteria.

I have had the pleasure of working with Quintessential, and more specifically Noah Warren, over the past 4 years. We have shared in the success of 8 Gardner Close and have been side by side in the trenches at Garden Square. They are excellent at developing and maintaining professional relationships with tenants, agents and key decision makers. Quintessential are on top of their game and I would not hesitate to invest with them as I know I would be in safe hands. Its landlords like Quintessential that make agents want to come to work.
