For investors

Capital, and a developer who is on site every day.

The work is the product. We source the property, negotiate the purchase, run the refurbishment ourselves, and account for every pound of the spend — so the only question left for you is whether the deal and the person behind it are worth backing.

What the capital does

It buys tired property and pays for the work that makes it valuable.

Not a fund, not a scheme, not a managed product. Each arrangement is a specific property, at a specific price, with a specific scope of work — assessed on its own numbers before anything is committed.

Sourcing

Direct to owners and agents, plus off-market approaches where a property hasn't been listed. We do this ourselves — it isn't outsourced to a lead seller.

Assessment

Purchase price, genuine refurbishment cost, realistic end value, and the time the work will take. Most properties fail this test. Ours is a small number of deals a year, not volume.

Delivery

Refurbishment managed on site day to day by us, using a standing crew of trades we've worked with repeatedly. Documented as it goes.

Outcome

Either refinanced and let, or sold on. Which one is decided on the figures at the time, not promised in advance.

Read this before you get in touch

What this is, and what it isn't.

This is not an investment offer. Nothing on this page is a financial promotion, an invitation to invest, or a statement of expected returns. It is a description of how the business operates, so that anyone considering working with us understands the shape of it before a conversation starts.

Any arrangement would be discussed, documented and executed privately between the parties, with independent legal advice on both sides. We will never publish a rate, a projected return or a yield on this website, and we'd be wary of any developer who does.

What we won't do

  • Quote a percentage return, a yield, or a "guaranteed" anything.
  • Ask you to transfer money on the strength of a website or a phone call.
  • Take a deposit without a written agreement drafted by solicitors.
  • Describe a property as de-risked, secure, or guaranteed.
  • Recommend that you invest money you might need access to.

What we will do

  • Show you the actual numbers on a specific property, including the refurbishment budget and where it came from.
  • Explain what happens if the work overruns, or the market moves, or the property doesn't sell.
  • Put the whole arrangement in writing before a penny changes hands.
  • Tell you honestly if a deal isn't worth your money — including when the answer is "not this one".

If you're considering putting capital into property and you're not experienced at it, take independent financial and legal advice first. Property investment can lose money, capital can be tied up for long periods, and past performance on eight properties tells you very little about the next one.

Why work with us rather than a fund

You can see the work being done.

A fund sends you a valuation twice a year. We send you photographs of the bathroom being ripped out and the reason the budget moved by £2,000.

Skin in the game

Our own money is in it

We hold and rent property ourselves. When a deal goes wrong, it costs us before it costs anyone else — which is the correct order for those things to happen in.

On site daily

Not a remote operator

The refurbishment is managed in person, on the ground, every working day. That's why overruns get caught in week one instead of at handover.

No consultancy layer

You talk to the decision-maker

There's no account manager between you and the person buying the property. If you've got a question about the numbers, ask the person who did the sums.

Start a conversation

Tell us roughly what you're thinking.

You don't need to state an amount. What's useful is knowing whether you're looking at property seriously, what kind of involvement appeals, and what you'd need to see before you'd consider it.

Nothing you send here commits you to anything, and it won't be added to a mailing list. If it turns out we're not the right fit, we'll say so.

Please don't send bank details, identification documents or financial statements through this form. We'll ask properly if and when it's needed. See our privacy policy.
