Problem Statements:

1 . Difficulty in Identifying Viable Property Opportunities

Problem: The market is saturated with numerous listings, but not all meet the company’s

strategic requirements (location, budget, appreciation potential, legal clearances).

→ The role should solve the challenge of filtering and qualifying properties that align with

the company’s acquisition and development goals.

2. Limited Access to Reliable Market Intelligence

Problem: Market trends, competitor activities, and pricing shifts are often fragmented or

outdated.

→ The role should solve this by conducting systematic market research and trend

analysis, providing timely intelligence for investment decisions.

3. Inefficient Sourcing Channels and Networks

Problem: Over-reliance on a few brokers or online listings can restrict the inflow of quality

property leads.

→ The role should solve this by expanding and diversifying sourcing networks (agents,

developers, auctions, direct owners, etc.), ensuring a steady pipeline of opportunities.

4. Negotiation Gaps Leading to Suboptimal Deals

Problem: Without effective negotiation, the company risks acquiring properties at higher-

than-necessary costs or with unfavourable terms.

→ The role should solve this by supporting negotiations with owners and stakeholders,

ensuring the best value acquisition.

5. Compliance and Due Diligence Risks

Problem: Overlooking legal, financial, or physical issues during property assessment can

lead to costly disputes and delays.

→ The role should solve this by assisting in due diligence checks and ensuring all

documents/contracts are accurate, compliant, and risk-free.

In short, the sourcing team’s key problem-solving mandate is to find the right property,

at the right time, at the right price, with minimal risk.
