The Acquisitions Process

Although BridgePoint recognises that every project is different, our streamlined execution process provides us with the ability to evaluate projects and execute solutions in an efficient manner. Our process consists of the following:

1. Project Submission: In order to commence the acquisitions process, BridgePoint requires that you register the project. To register a project, click here
2. Mutual NDA: BridgePoint requires that a mutual NDA (non-disclosure agreement) is executed by both parties to protect both our company and yourself.
3. Project Intake Form: BridgePoint requires that you complete an intake form so that our project selection Committee can begin the evaluation of the project.  Intake forms provide enough information to help the Committee decide whether the project is worthy of pursuing further. Incomplete intake forms will be returned.
4. Conditional Approval: Once BridgePoint's investment committee has approved the intake form, you will be requested to complete a standard electronic due diligence form. We recognize that this process may vary depending on factors such as geographic location, asset class and development cycle stage. Based on these variables, our acquisitions team works diligently with you to shepherd the process.
5. Indicative Heads of Terms: Once BridgePoint's due diligence team has approved the due diligence, you will be provided with a Heads of Terms defining our financial proposal in detail.
6. Legal Documentation/Independent: Upon receipt of an executed Heads of Terms, BridgePoint will work with you to draft the documentation required to proceed.  In addition, an independent valuation will be required and instructed by BridgePoint..
7. Site Visit: Once the legal documentation has been approved by both parties, we require a site visit by one member from the acquisitions department or a member from the BridgePoint Executive Team. The developer will be responsible for expenses and costs associated with this site visit.  For information on BridgePoint's policies and procedures regarding site visits and the associated expenses, click here
8. Closing: Once the site visit has been conducted, a final meeting is held by BridgePoint's Executive Team to approve the project. Upon unanimous approval by the Executive Team, a closing date is scheduled by both parties to execute documentation.

The time period associated with the acquisitions process stated above can take as little as 30 days or as long as six months depending on how quickly you are able to respond.
