Established by our principal, Alan Conway in 2013 to provide bespoke property, investment and management advice to wealthy individuals/families, Qualifying Investment Funds (QIF), pension funds, investment companies and foreign investors.
Our aim is source and acquire well located, income producing properties primarily in Ireland. These properties are generally sourced ‘off market’ through the network of professional contacts and associates our principal, Alan Conway, has built up over many years in the industry. Properties are not only chosen because of their investment potential, critically they must also possess further asset management opportunities, from straight forward re-letting potential to entire re-development, this is where ALWAY, as your advisor can add real value!
Furthermore we provide and where necessary outsource, the letting and management of all properties until their ultimate sale.
Alan is a Qualified Financial Advisor and has over 30 years banking and property investment/management experience. Prior to establishing ALWAY, he held a number of senior relationship management roles and was an Associate Director in the Bank of Ireland Group, most recently in the Specialist Property Group and BOI Private Banking Ltd.
Alan was responsible for introducing and managing a number of the largest clients to the BOI Group and has an in depth knowledge of acquiring and managing property in global locations including France, Sweden, Belgium, USA and of course Ireland and the UK.
Our clients understand there is significant value in the property market with ever increasing ways to access it. In addition they want to be directly involved in the decision making process and like to be kept up to date on how their investment is performing.
What makes ALWAY different from other advisors or investment vehicles such as Real Estate Investment Trusts or third party property funds is that during acquisition (and disposal) ALWAY clients are kept fully informed as each property is being bought/sold and how these properties will be managed for the future. Clients are asked for their opinion on these transactions and to offer any additional insight, as this can be critical to our evaluation and to making the final decisions.
We provide quarterly updates, one to one briefings and half yearly valuations.
ALWAY is supported through the appointment of its own team of property advisors and valuers, including a number of Ireland's leading industry experts. These firms work closely with ALWAY and their clients helping to source and build the ‘right’ balance between risk and return in a market that is constantly changing.
As a client you will be provided with twice yearly valuations and ongoing advice including updates on material changes to your investment. In addition you will receive regular market updates and analysis to support the overall investment strategy with the primary intention of reducing overall risk volatility.
