Advice you won’t always like.
Returns you will.
WHY KNOX
We invest in the same deals we advise on.
Analysis, not sales
Knox Capital doesn't sell property. It analyses it: price, refurbishment cost, achievable rent and exit value, so you know whether a deal works before you commit capital.
Principal, not broker
Knox Capital invests its own capital in Dublin property using the same strategies it advises on. Every recommendation is the one we would make with our own money.
Off-market, when it's there
When opportunities come through owner outreach, probate or agent relationships, clients get access, already appraised. It adds to the analysis. It never replaces it.
What We Do
Four disciplines, one approach: know what a property is worth before you pay for it.
Our Approach
Identify. Analyse. Acquire. Execute. Optimise.
Identify
We find opportunities through direct owner outreach, agent relationships, probate and receivership monitoring.
Analyse
Every property is put through the full stack: price appraisal, refurbishment cost, achievable rent and exit valuation.
Acquire
We negotiate, structure finance and execute the acquisition with full due diligence.
Execute
We manage refurbishment, compliance and repositioning to deliver the projected value.
Optimise
We improve management, tenanting and financing to hold or exit at peak value.
What We Invest In
The property types where we deploy capital and advisory.
Residential
Apartments, houses, blocks and multi-unit residential opportunities across Dublin.
Mixed Use
Residential and commercial properties with repositioning or development potential.
Development Opportunities
Sites and existing buildings where planning, refurbishment or redevelopment can unlock additional value.
Value-Add Opportunities
Properties where refurbishment, reconfiguration, improved management or alternative use can increase value.
The Stack
The full analysis, not just the price.
Every property - whether found off-market or spotted on Daft - goes through the same five-stage appraisal. The client sees the whole stack: what to pay, what it costs to fix, what it earns, what it is worth, and whether to do it at all.
Price Appraisal
Is the asking price justified? We pull local comparables, recent sales, and market data to determine what the property is actually worth - today, not what the agent hopes for.
Refurbishment Cost
Independent scope and cost estimates for works required to reach target condition - from cosmetic refresh to full structural refurbishment. No estate-agent optimism, no contractor padding.
Market Rent
Realistic achievable rent, stress-tested against vacancy, management costs, and compliance requirements. The number a lender and a spreadsheet will believe.
Exit Valuation
Projected post-refurbishment value and the uplift case - what the property is worth once the works are done, and whether the arithmetic actually works.
The Verdict
A clear recommendation: buy, walk, or renegotiate. Including the reasons not to buy - because the best deal is often the one you do not do.
We don’t sell property.
We model its future.
