Hills Hub

The project needed a structure that unlocked the land’s value without burning fresh cash equity. The client wanted to retain the retail asset as long-term income, recycle capital through industrial strata sales, manage procurement risk across a long construction period, and resolve a complex building services strategy, all while keeping feasibility live as design, cost and authority inputs continued to evolve.

Evoc structured the project to use the land itself as the principal equity contribution, reducing reliance on new cash and converting the holding into a bankable opportunity. The asset mix was split deliberately: retail retained as long-term income, industrial warehouse positioned for strata subdivision and sale. A two-part stratum subdivision, Stratum 1 retail and Stratum 2 industrial, supported separate funding, ownership and exit pathways. Evoc also led the commercial review of contractor procurement, identifying that the proposed GMP did not fully transfer cost risk, and coordinated the building services strategy across embedded network, solar, metering, future battery readiness and energy management.

A fundable development structure using land as the primary equity contribution, a mixed-use strategy combining retained retail income with industrial strata sale potential, and a future-focused services platform. Procurement risk was identified and addressed before contractual commitment.
