At Jaxx, we have a passion for commercial property development and an eye for opportunity. All backed by solid capital and industry experience. Our focus is acquiring commercial properties that we can add value to. We love a challenge and relish the chance to do something a bit different.
About Jaxx
An eye for opportunity.
Jaxx specialises in commercial property acquisition, including renovation and repurposing, and commercial leasing. We focus on acquiring commercial properties that we can add value to. Where others see hard work, we see exciting opportunities. We acquire overlooked spaces and with applied vision, develop them into exceptional commercial solutions.
Connected and capitalised.
Jaxx is well-capitalised with a strong balance sheet. We are ready to close deals. But that is just one part of the equation. We also have great relationships with businesses, communities and wider stakeholders. Our connections across the residential and commercial space mean we have in-depth knowledge of the market at any given time.
Proven background. Fresh approach.
We have a reputation for problem solving, no matter how complex. We don’t shy away from challenging properties; in fact, we relish the chance to do something a bit different. Our background in real estate means we apply market knowledge to property acquisitions, not just margin knowledge.
We don’t win unless our clients win.
We believe nothing works harder than hard work, so we hope you find our approach down to earth and determined. We champion face-to-face business rather than phone calls from behind desks. We are flexible and can make decisions and move quickly. And we go out of our way to do the right thing; because we don’t win unless our clients win.
