Bonard identifies markets with significant expansion potential by analysing demand and supply mismatches, rental attractiveness, and achievable internal rates of return (IRRs). The company leverages the latest intelligence on transaction activity and local knowledge to guide clients in the optimal allocation of funds for real estate investments. Their services include complex advisory and peer review processes aimed at enhancing asset performance and maximising property value.

The company focuses on improving occupancy rates and tenant experiences through independent customer surveys. By gaining insights into prospective tenants, Bonard helps clients identify suitable asset locations, preferred services, amenities, and feasible rent levels. This ensures that properties are well-positioned in the market to meet tenant demands.

Bonard has developed extensive expertise over the past 15 years in sector-specific research and connections, enabling clients to navigate the rented residential asset classes effectively. Strong socio-demographic fundamentals and decreasing affordability to purchase homes have led to increased investor interest in the built-to-rent sector, which is viewed as a stable asset class with secure returns.

While Bonard’s primary focus is on real estate advisory, their experience extends to the student accommodation sector. The company offers tailored research and insights that support developers and investors in navigating the complexities of the PBSA market.
