Port Property Consultancy


Property is the common element linking ports to the maritime and logistics industry. At Aegir we recognise that property is one of, if not the most strategic asset a port has.

Property by nature is a long term commitment and a major asset on any port or maritime entity's balance sheet. Port real estate can have very positive implications for logistics flow, balance sheet, income statement, environmental matters, government and community relations and other exposures for port authorities and their clients. As such decisions taken about property at or near a port, with their potentially wide ranging financial, operational and competitive and public relations impact, should be carefully assessed and market driven to the greatest extent possible.

Aegir's port property consultancy offers a port authority or operator, user and investors of port properties the ability to access a wide range of comprehensive maritime and property skills, experience and knowledge in order to obtain the type of information and advice to make timely and practical property decisions.
