About David G Fisher

Construction and Business Development

(Australia & New Zealand)

Hi there, I'm so glad you found me. Here's a little insight into my world: I am a licensed ASSET FIRST SYSTEM™ Advisor with a career built on multiple business ownership, commercial construction management and property development across Australia and New Zealand.

With 46 years of industry experience, my unique approach prioritises optimising physical properties and building assets. Following this crucial initial step, I then build and direct a specialist team. This team focuses on optimising your specific business operations to ensure a predictable, premium sale and a seamless transition to your post-business life.

  • Experience: Over 46 years in the construction industry. David began as an apprentice carpenter and became a foreman at the early age of 22.

  • Key Projects: Managed the construction of shopping centres, hospitals, and $1.2 billion cancer centre.

  • Current Role: Co-Founder of Business Exit & Beyond, and CORE Asset Advisory specialising in exit and succession programs for business owners who operate their businesses from their own commercial properties.

  • Expertise: I speak the language of property and business; I'm not a 'business coach.' I've been in the trenches of owning multiple businesses, construction management and property development for four decades. I also understand how to overcome business exit burnout.

  • Property-Backed Founder since 1987, licenced builder, started buying, renovating & selling, then property developer

Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions answer by our experts

Find clear, honest answers to common question from a experience professional.

Where do I start: my commercial property and my business together, or separately?

There is no one-size-fits-all answer, but the "Asset-First" approach is key. We analyze whether a Sale and Leaseback (where you retain the property for long-term passive income) or a Dual-Asset Sale (selling both to a single buyer) yields the highest net return for your specific legacy goals.

How does my physical building impact my business valuation?

Significant value is often left on the table because the property is treated as an afterthought. Leveraging 43 years in construction and development, we identify "Value Gaps"—such as deferred maintenance or under-utilized zoning—that, if fixed, can drive a much higher multiple for the business operating within those walls.

What is the biggest hurdle in a property-backed business exit?

Emotional attachment and lack of "Exit-Readiness" in the physical asset. While many advisors focus only on the balance sheet, we prioritize the optimization of the property first to ensure a predictable, premium sale and a seamless transition.

Why do I need a specialist who understands construction and property development for my exit?

Most brokers speak the language of "Goodwill," but they don't know the "Dirt and the Deeds." David G. Fisher's tenure in commercial construction means he understands the structural integrity and development upside of your facility, ensuring you aren't leaving money on the table that a savvy buyer would otherwise exploit.

ASSET FIRST SYSTEM™

You built two things.

Most advisors only see one.

Most business owners are told to sell the business first and deal with the property later. By the time later arrives — the tax window has closed, the negotiating leverage is gone, and the property has been treated as an afterthought rather than the asset it truly is.

The ASSET FIRST SYSTEM™ reverses that sequence entirely.

Built on 46 years of commercial construction, property valuation, and business advisory experience — and $1.2 billion in cancer hospital construction — this is the only integrated dual-asset exit methodology in Australia. Designed specifically for business owners aged 50 to 65 who own and operate from their commercial property. Seven stages. Two assets. One sequence that puts your property first, your business second, and your total wealth outcome at the centre of every decision.
