South East

Care-sector property in Bicester.

Maine Property Solutions is a property company. We find, prepare and manage buildings — we do not provide care, support or supervision, and we are not registered with CQC or Ofsted. Care and support in any property we manage is provided by the registered provider, not by us.

We have not yet placed a property with a provider in Bicester. Tell us the specification and we will look for it.

The property side

Property for care providers in Bicester

The property side of a care placement in Bicester is a distinct job from the care side, with a different regulator and a different set of documents.

Our service is designed to take the property work off a provider's desk — sourcing, works, certificates and the landlord relationship — and nothing beyond it.

It begins with what the building has to do. The rest — sourcing, works, certificates — follows from that, in that order.

The South East is well outside our Birmingham base. We hold no property in Bicester and no local presence there.

Three of the fourteen

What the property has to be, sector by sector

Each of these buys a different building for a different reason, and Oxfordshire is no exception. Three are set out here; the rest have their own pages.

Children's Residential Homes

Small houses, not institutions. The sector runs at a mean of roughly three to four places per home, which means ordinary residential stock in ordinary streets — and it means the property that works is the property that reads as a family home rather than a facility.

Asylum Dispersal Accommodation

Two product types. Self-contained houses or flats for families, and HMOs for single people. Dispersed accommodation means ordinary houses and flats in ordinary residential areas rather than purpose-built sites, and allocation is on a no-choice basis with no requirement to stay within a district.

Refugee Resettlement Housing

A spare room inside an occupied home, or a self-contained unit standing empty. Ordinary stock, and a genuinely low barrier to entry compared with the rest of this lane.

The line, drawn plainly

What we can do, and what we cannot

What we can do

  • Find property against a written specification — size, layout, location, adaptation, tenure and the compliance set the building has to carry.
  • Prepare it: works, furnishing, certificates and the paperwork a provider or a commissioner will want to see before it takes the building on.
  • Manage the building afterwards, if that is what is wanted — repairs, contractors, certificate renewals and the landlord side of the relationship.
  • Put the proposed terms, the works and the timetable in front of you in writing before anything is committed.

What we do not do

  • We do not provide care, support or supervision, of any kind, to anyone.
  • We are not registered with CQC and we are not registered with Ofsted. A landlord letting a building to a care provider is carrying on neither regulated activity and has nothing to register.
  • We do not employ, supply or manage care or support staff, and we make no claim about the vetting of anyone else's.
  • We hold no framework place, no contract and no position on any supplier list with any council, health body or government department.
  • We hold no care-sector placement anywhere. Maine Property Solutions operates two properties, both in Coventry, and has no managed instruction in any sector.
