Due diligence checklist.
A practical framework to evaluate private credit and property investment opportunities with institutional rigour.
Manage risk
A structured approach identifies weaknesses before capital commits.
Meet compliance
Wholesale investors must document their assessment process.
Build confidence
Know what to ask. Know what to look for. Know what matters.
Assess the operator's experience and execution history.
Review prior projects, capital deployed, and outcomes achieved. Look for consistency across market cycles and evidence of institutional discipline. Track record matters because operators build value or destroy it.
Understand the loan position and asset backing.
Confirm LVR, mortgage position, and subordination terms. Verify the underlying asset value through independent valuation. Security hierarchy determines recovery in stress scenarios.
Validate the development timeline and exit strategy.
Test assumptions on construction costs, completion dates, and market conditions. Stress test the exit plan against realistic scenarios. Feasibility underpins whether the deal can perform as modeled.
