About Lusaro
Independent advice,
institutionally minded.
Lusaro provides building and project consultancy to investment institutions and asset managers, helping them protect and grow the value and performance of their property portfolios. We work as an extension of your team — technically rigorous, commercially fluent, and accountable from instruction to outcome.
Investment focus
Advice framed around your financial objectives and risk profile. Every recommendation is expressed in terms of cost, programme, liability and value — not just condition.
Client partnership
A senior-led relationship with continuity of people. We stay engaged across the lifecycle of the asset, not just the length of a single instruction.
What we do
Two disciplines.
One accountable team.
Lusaro is built around the two things institutional owners need most: a clear technical view of the asset, and confident control of the project that changes it.
01 Building Consultancy
Technical due diligence
Pre-acquisition and pre-disposal surveys that surface the risks, capital liabilities and opportunities behind the headline yield.
Building surveys & condition reports
Clear, evidence-led assessments of fabric, structure and services, with prioritised remedial advice and indicative costs.
Dilapidations
Schedules of condition and dilapidations advice for landlords and tenants, negotiated to a commercial settlement.
Planned preventative maintenance
Multi-year PPM programmes and lifecycle cost plans that turn reactive spend into a budgeted, boardroom-ready forecast.
02 Project Consultancy
Project management
End-to-end delivery leadership across design, procurement and construction — holding scope, cost and programme to account.
Employer’s agent & contract administration
Impartial administration of JCT and design-and-build contracts, protecting your position through certification and change control.
Development monitoring
Independent oversight for funders and forward purchasers, reporting on progress, cost, quality and drawdown certainty.
Cost & programme advisory
Early-stage feasibility, budget setting and programme testing so investment decisions are made on realistic numbers.
How we work
A process built for
decisions, not documents.
-
01
Understand
We start with the investment case — hold period, exit strategy, tenant profile and appetite for risk — so the technical work answers the right question.
-
02
Assess
Rigorous inspection and interrogation of the asset and its documentation, with the detail recorded and the material issues separated from the noise.
-
03
Advise
Findings translated into cost, programme and liability, with a clear recommendation and the reasoning behind it. Concise where it can be, thorough where it must be.
-
04
Deliver
Where the advice leads to works, we take them through to completion — the same people, the same standard, accountable for the result.

Capabilities in practice
Where Lusaro
adds value.
Typical instructions and the difference independent, senior-led advice makes to each.
Portfolio due diligence
Multi-asset acquisitions assessed on a consistent basis, so capital liabilities are priced into the bid rather than discovered afterwards — and the risks that genuinely affect value are separated from those that don’t.
Repositioning & refurbishment
Tired assets brought back to institutional standard, with the scope tested against the letting strategy and delivery managed to a fixed budget and programme.
Development monitoring
Independent oversight through construction for funders and forward purchasers — validating drawdowns, tracking programme certainty and flagging cost drift while it is still recoverable.
