Corporate real estate decisions are material, long-dated commitments with significant financial, operational, and reputational consequences.

For government bodies, ASX-listed entities, and private-equity-backed organisations, these decisions must satisfy not only commercial objectives, but also governance, probity, and disclosure obligations. They must be capable of being defended to boards, auditors, regulators, investors, and, where relevant, the public.

In this context, advisory independence is not a choice, it is a governance requirement.

Where advisors are remunerated by landlords or counterparties, structural conflicts arise. Advice can be influenced by outcomes that do not fully align with the occupier’s interests, increasing long-term risk exposure across lease terms, capital commitments, sustainability obligations, and workplace strategy.

PPA Partners operates under a fully independent, client-funded model. Our advice is aligned solely with the occupier’s interests, supporting transparent decision-making, defensible outcomes, and clear accountability.

Through board-level assurance, governance-ready reporting, independent transaction execution, and occupier-focused workplace strategy, we help organisations reduce risk, protect capital, and meet their governance obligations with confidence.
