      Are you involved with the management of a block of flats or private estate grounds? Feeling overwhelmed, or like its only you that does all of the work? Maybe you have an agent already who is based far away and never seems to really care or respond? Perhaps you are a developer coming to the end of a project and wish to hand management over?

      If you've answered yes to any of these questions, then we can help. Our dedicated Block and Estate Management team based in Haverhill can take all of the day to day stresses away and handle all of the myriad of legal, technical, health and safety and accounting tasks and handle day to day management of your site.

      If you've ever asked yourself one of these questions, or a question like it, without really knowing the answer, we can help!

      We offer a detailed in depth analysis of your portfolio to see how it can be improved, expanded on, made less risky, or indeed advise of methods of disposing of the portfolio in a tax efficient manner, all completely free and with no obligation.

    • Buy to Let advice & Investment property sourcing:

Perhaps you are time poor and while you appreciate the value of BTL property, you just don't have the time to make it happen? Maybe you have the time to view property but lack the confidence to make a quick decision, and then lose out?

      We can help. We will sit down with you and discuss your requirements and identify the exact size, style, location and budget of property to start or expand your portfolio. We will then scour the market, including off-market opportunities, and source out suitable property before reporting back to you with all the key information you need to make a decision. We will then negotiate with the sellers agent for you and help organise and drive the purchase through.

      We have extensive experience selling both plots of land with or without planning permission, and finished new homes across West Suffolk.

      We can advise on planning considerations (and can bring in others where needed), site layout and unit selection/mix, in addition to market analysis and post completion prices/rents.
    Speak to us today for a confidential conversation regarding your opportunity and we'll be more than happy to help with no obligation or consultation charges.
