Who we are

You’ll work directly with specialist land development consultants who understand the unique challenges of your sector and the development process to tailor every solution to your needs. Our approach combines deep industry expertise, strong relationships, technical skills, and a commitment to clear, personal service so your project achieves real value and meaningful outcomes.

The Hammond Land Advisory Story

Hammond Land Advisory was founded on a simple but powerful belief: land development should make a real difference for organisations that serve others, and for the people and communities they support. Our business was born from the collective experience of a team who have spent decades delivering land development solutions across Queensland and Australia, with a special passion and skillset for projects that serve the education, not-for-profit, for-purpose, and faith based organisation sectors.
From the start, our motivation has been to work on projects that matter – those that impact young people, support communities, and provide vital infrastructure for those most in need. We’re energized by our mission of “making a difference in projects that make a difference.”

We’d love to partner with you to make a real difference.
