Real Estate Division
Buildings that are finished when we say they are.
We develop and build commercial and residential property. Land assessment, design, construction and handover run under one programme, so the date you are given is the date you can plan around.
What we do
Development, and the delivery behind it.
We work on both sides of a property project: assessing whether a site and a scheme make sense, and then building it. That means the programme and the budget are set by the people who have to meet them.
Materials and methods are chosen for the climate and ground conditions of the site, not copied from a specification written somewhere else. It costs a little more at the start and considerably less over the building's life.
What we build
Commercial and residential.
-
Office and mixed use
Offices, retail space and mixed-use buildings, built to specification and handed over ready to occupy or let.
-
Residential
Apartments and homes, from single blocks to phased schemes, with material choices matched to the site.
-
Institutional
Clinical, education and community buildings, drawing on the group's healthcare and infrastructure divisions.
-
Site and feasibility
Land assessment, planning input and feasibility work before anyone commits capital to a scheme.
-
Fit-out
Interior fit-out and services for tenants taking on shell-and-core space.
-
Estate upgrades
Refurbishment and system replacement in buildings that stay occupied through the work.
How a project runs
One programme, one contact.
Decisions made before the ground is broken
Feasibility, statutory approvals and the construction programme are settled up front. Most cost overruns on a development are decisions taken late, so we take them early.
- Site assessment and feasibility review
- Architectural and structural design
- Statutory approvals and consents
- Programme and budget agreed before mobilisation
Handed over ready to use
Services are commissioned and tested before handover, and the building comes with the documentation to operate it. A snag list is not a handover.
- Structural and finishing works to specification
- Mechanical, electrical and plumbing commissioned and tested
- Documented handover with operating information
- Defects period with a named point of contact

Why us
Why build with Sabbia.
-
Developer and builder
We carry the programme and the construction, so the schedule is set by the people delivering it.
-
Engineering in-house
Civil and structural capability from the infrastructure division rather than a subcontracted unknown.
-
Built for the site
Materials and methods chosen for local climate and ground conditions, which is what decides maintenance cost later.
-
A real handover
Commissioned, documented and supported through the defects period.
