Frequently asked questions.
Q1: Do you charge sourcing fees upfront?
A: No. Unlike most sourcing agents, we charge no upfront fees. Our fee is only due on successful completion of your purchase. This ensures your investment is risk-free until we deliver results.
Q2: How do you find property deals in South Wales?
A: We specialize in high-yielding South Wales locations, leveraging local relationships, off-market opportunities, and auction strategies. Each property undergoes due diligence to ensure strong ROI.
Q3: Do you offer a fully managed solution?
A: Yes. We provide a complete in-house service, including:
Sourcing undervalued properties
Project managing refurbishments
Aftercare and investor support
Our aim is to make property investing stress-free and profitable.
Q4: What makes your service different?
A: We run compulsory on-site investor days so you can see live projects in progress. This transparency builds trust and gives you confidence before committing.
Q5: Do you work with overseas investors?
A: Absolutely. We have systems in place to handle remote investments, including video tours, digital document signing, and progress updates. Many of our clients invest without ever visiting the property in person.
Q6: What types of properties do you source?
A: We focus on houses with value-add potential—ideal for refurbishment and capital growth. While we have experience in HMOs, blocks of flats, and commercial conversions, our core strategy is delivering profitable single-family homes.
Q7: Do you manage refurbishments in-house?
A: Yes. We have a dedicated in-house build team, ensuring consistent quality, controlled costs, and faster project timelines.
Q8: Do you offer property management after purchase?
A: Currently, we work with trusted partners for property management, but we’re bringing this in-house very soon to provide an end-to-end service.
Q9: Which areas of South Wales do you invest in?
A: All major high-yielding areas in South Wales, including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Bridgend, and Valleys towns. These areas provide excellent rental demand and strong ROI.
Q10: How much do I need to invest?
A: For a standard buy-to-let property in South Wales, you typically need £30,000–£50,000 for deposits, fees, and initial works. Projects vary depending on scale and strategy.
Q11: What returns can I expect?
A: Average returns:
Buy-to-let: 6–8% gross yield
Value-add refurb projects: Higher ROI depending on works
HMO conversions: Possible but not our core strategy
Q12: How do you ensure compliance and safety?
A: We handle building regulations, EPCs, gas and electrical certifications, and work closely with local authorities. For HMOs, we ensure all licensing requirements are met.

Purchase: 6–12 weeks
