South East

Care-sector property in Deal.

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 Deal. Tell us the specification and we will look for it.

The property side

Property for care providers in Deal

Property is the slow half of a care placement in Deal. Finding the building, getting it ready and getting the paperwork right takes longer than agreeing the care.

The property and the care are two contracts. We would be on one of them, and only on one of them.

The brief we can work from is a written one: the building's purpose, its specification, and what has to be evidenced about it before it is used.

The South East is well outside our Birmingham base. We hold no property in Deal 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 Kent is no exception. Three are set out here; the rest have their own pages.

Supported Living (Learning Disability & Autism)

Property here is designed or adapted so that independent living is a real alternative to a care home. The schemes that work are small, ideally on the ground floor — single-person homes, converted bungalows and small multi-person schemes rather than institutions. And the buying pattern is unusual: property is very often sourced against a named individual with a known need, not bought speculatively and marketed afterwards.

Supported Living (Mental Health)

What is wanted is ordinary housing that works for someone leaving a long hospital stay: self-contained where possible, in a location that supports rather than isolates, and available on a timescale that matches a discharge date rather than a development programme. Published examples of this sector working describe people moving out of long inpatient stays into housing, which is the outcome the buying is measured against.

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.

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.

What would you actually do for a provider in Deal?

Source property against a written specification, prepare it, and manage the building afterwards if that is wanted. Everything about care, support, supervision and staff stays with the provider.

A written specification for Deal is enough to start. It is also enough for us to say if it is not something we can source.
