Where risk often sits
Many development projects appear viable at appraisal stage.
But the real challenge is understanding how those assumptions translate into delivery, phasing, infrastructure and cashflow.
It’s in that gap — between appraisal, land strategy and execution — where risk often sits.
Independent Commercial Oversight
W22 supports developers, investors and land teams at key decision points across the development lifecycle — from acquisition through to delivery.
We provide independent, commercially focused input to help clients understand risk, challenge assumptions and make well-informed decisions.

How we work
Bringing clarity, structure and a practical perspective to complex development decisions — supporting well-informed decisions at critical points.
Developer Insight. Investor Mindset. Independent View.
W22 combines experience from within major developers with a clear understanding of how capital decisions are made and evaluated.
We understand how development assumptions are formed, where risk is often understated, and how delivery challenges impact outcomes.
Most appraisals assume delivery — the focus here is on whether delivery is actually achievable.

Before committing capital or progressing a scheme, it’s critical to understand the real risks and assumptions.
W22 provides independent, commercially focused input into development and investment decisions — drawing on experience across major housebuilders, strategic land portfolios and master developers.
Having worked on the developer side, I understand how development and investment decisions are made, where risk sits, and how those decisions translate into delivery and outcomes.
The role of W22 is to provide a clear, independent perspective — helping clients make well-informed decisions and move forward with confidence.
