The Single-Stop
Building Solution
Turning the key to your new office space
BY GARRY HAMILTON
Trusting your appointed property developer to take care of every element within the design, development and construction of your office building can be difficult. A turnkey development approach, however, is the right kind of ticket for a nofuss, efficient development.
Turning the Key As the world of business constantly demands efficient, effective solutions to business problems, so too does the property development sector. The turnkey development approach, that sees clients hand over the reins to an appointed developer that manages and oversees every element of the process, enables companies to focus on their core business. Being able to do this with confidence, of course requires a well-established relationship and finding a development partner that’ s experienced, well-resourced and equipped to manage large-scale projects, at every step of the way.
The Right Kind of Developer Garry Hamilton, Director of Development at Durban property development and investment company, Hodari Properties, has overseen multiple construction processes for the company’ s diverse clientele. Entrusted with developing premises for many well-known names in the corporate world, including PWC, Aspen Pharmacare, Big Foot Logistics and more, Hodari Properties has a portfolio that’ s shaping skylines across the African continent.
In Full Control As many of Hodari Properties’ clients turn towards adopting the company’ s turnkey development approach, Garry has found that:“ Our clients benefit from our turnkey development approach, as it puts us fully in control of every aspect of construction, making it easier for them to focus on what they need to do, and not worry about the intricacies of ensuring they’ ll have their office ready in time. We’ re able to meet their tight deadlines, while equipped to effectively allocate resources and trusted with making the right choices, at the right time, for their development. A close working relationship with our clients is essential, as this makes it easier for our team to fully understand, and act on, an extremely detailed brief, ensuring that our development responds to their unique specifications. Our multiskilled team and extensive experience enables us to develop for any sector, client requirement, or design need.”
Saving Essential Time The world of business moves fast, and office moves are always complex processes. Moreover, as new business districts spring up across urban areas across South Africa, the need to relocate offices, or expand premises to accommodate growing teams, becomes a time-urgent company priority. As more and more companies move further north from the centre of Durban, for example, larger commercial districts have been created in Umhlanga, Ballito and near King Shaka International Airport. Hodari Properties’ portfolio reflects this, with the developers playing a key role in designing and constructing numerous buildings in these areas. Hodari Properties’ turnkey development approach solves time-related complexities for companies, with short time construction periods being commonplace for this company. Garry explains:
