Home/Care providers/Formby
North West
Care-sector property in Formby.
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 Formby. Tell us the specification and we will look for it.
The property side
Property for care providers in Formby
The property side of a care placement in Formby is a distinct job from the care side, with a different regulator and a different set of documents.
What we can offer is property capability. The registration, the staff and the care plan sit with the provider, where the law puts them.
Start with the specification. Everything downstream, from which streets are worth looking at to which certificates are needed, is decided by it.
The North West is a long way from our Birmingham registered office. We hold no property in Formby and no local presence of any kind 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 Merseyside 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.
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.
Care Staff Accommodation
A shared house of unrelated working adults. Three or more triggers HMO status, and five or more in two or more households triggers mandatory licensing. Practically: ordinary three to six bedroom stock near the employer's sites.

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.
