Property worth owning, with the working shown.

We source residential, commercial and retail investment property across the North West, appraise it as if we were buying it ourselves, and can deliver the refurbishment so it is ready to let and compliant from day one.

Questions

Before you get in touch.

Anything else, call us on 01925 860444.

Do I need to live in the North West?

No. Many investors buy in the region from elsewhere. We view the property, coordinate the purchase and the works, and keep you updated with photos and written reports at every stage.

How are your fees structured?

Fees are agreed in writing when we take your brief, before any property is introduced. Refurbishment is quoted separately as a fixed schedule of works, so you can see exactly what you're paying for.

Can you carry out the refurbishment?

Yes. Our maintenance and compliance team prices and delivers the works, so the budget in your appraisal comes from the people responsible for meeting it.

Do you arrange finance or legal work?

We don't give financial or legal advice. We work alongside your own broker, solicitor and accountant, or can introduce you to professionals we've worked with, and we coordinate everyone through to completion.

Do you source commercial and retail property?

Yes. Alongside residential, we source shops, offices, industrial units and mixed-use buildings. Their appraisals add the lease terms, tenant covenant, business rates and any change-of-use potential.

What happens once the property is ready?

It's handed over compliant, with certificates and a photographic record. You can then keep us on for ongoing maintenance, repairs and certificate renewals.
