Expert Knowledge for Better Developments
O’Flynn Group offer a complete consultancy service – from identifying sites to managing the finished property
Your Professional Partners
O’Flynn Group has extensive experience in property investment, development, and asset management. This applies across the residential, office, industrial, retail and student accommodation sectors. We also have the capability to carry out the entire process – from planning and construction right through to letting or sale.
As we have expertise in the entire spectrum of development, this reduces risk and maximises returns. We also offer our 360˚ expertise to joint venture partnerships. This helps identify, develop, and complete a project for our investors on time, budget and to the highest standard.
Development
Our expertise begins with identifying development opportunities, then assessing or progressing their potential. We base this on our experience in the Irish, UK and European property markets, where we have successfully delivered these services for ourselves, and for our partners.
We also carry out financial appraisals on the viability of developments. We achieve this by investigating market trends, and by leveraging the local insights gained from our own developments and experience.
Where we have local expertise, O’Flynn Group can also identify both on-market and off-market opportunities. This offers a particular advantage to investors and capital partners.
When our analysis has either identified or confirmed a development opportunity, we then progress it. This includes feasibility studies and due diligence services, as well as design and master planning.
We act as managers and co-ordinators throughout the entire process of a development project. This starts with financial appraisals and funding options required for development, and continues with the planning process. We leverage our experience and expertise to deliver the optimum design for any development.
Construction
O’Flynn Group has considerable knowledge of managing or constructing the development. We run a process to identify and appoint a professional team and a main contractor.
We often act as the main contractor on site to construct and deliver the end product. We also create a complete critical path and project management programme, or deliver other progress and funding reports as required by partners or investors.
Once construction commences, we place a team on the ground to oversee or directly construct that development. We place an important emphasis on all aspects of health and safety and cost control. This ensures that work and materials meet quality standards.
In today’s market, completing construction is no longer the end of a developers’ role. O’Flynn Group offers expertise in all aspects of managing, realising or growing value in a completed property asset.
In a traditional development, this includes the marketing and sale of units in a development. Our knowledge of financing also allows our in-house team to assess and recommend the most suitable model to achieve the best investment return.
We can design and execute a long-term programme to realise, increase and execute your exit from a property investment. Our asset management team can lead this process along with local stakeholders and our partners.
We can ensure you navigate any legal or regulatory hurdles, while adding value to your original investment. Finally, we can support the entire process by preparing, modelling and managing a business plan for the investment.

Asset Management
Property
The ongoing management of a property asset requires experience, oversight and attention to detail. At O’Flynn Group, our team has carried out this service to exacting standards for our own developments, and we can do the same for yours.
We believe project management is a key role when working out large scale developments to ensure the required standards are maintained. This can include preparing budgets, sourcing service suppliers, and completing day-to-day financial management.
This covers the collection of rent and service charges, and liaison with landlords and tenants. We can also appoint on-site personnel to oversee and direct the daily facilities management.
Tenants
For longer term property assets, we can provide a complete tenant management solution. This starts with marketing properties or units for sale or rent, and directing the appointed marketing agents. We then negotiate leases and commercial terms, and liaise with legal teams to ensure these agreements protect the interest of our clients.
We can also handle the renewal and regearing of existing tenant leases. This can include the financial analysis of new options to ensure they are commercially viable. Finally, we can oversee the full spectrum of tasks at the end of a lease –from close-out payments to refurbishments and marketing for new tenants.
