Blocks & Phases
A whole block, one agreement.
Rather than drip a completed phase into a slow sales market, let it as a whole under a single agreement — and read our note on covenant before you decide, because on a block it matters.
The Offer
One counterparty for the whole phase.
Selling a completed phase plot by plot into a slow market means holding costs on every unsold unit and steady pressure to discount. Letting it as a whole puts one agreement and one payer against the entire phase, with the void risk sitting on our side of the line rather than yours.
- A single agreement covering the phase rather than a stack of individual lettings
- One monthly payment, on the same date, regardless of unit-by-unit occupancy
- Agreed break provisions so you can take units back if the sales market turns
- Schedule of condition across the phase at handover and an agreed handback standard
- A phased take-up option, so both sides can prove the arrangement before scaling it
The Detail
Before it goes into your appraisal.
A block agreement is worth what the company paying the rent is worth, so test the covenant before you build a cashflow on it.
- Maine Property Solutions Ltd, Company No. 16187542 — run the check, we will help you do it
- One company let agreement for the phase, with the rent on the same date every month
- On anything substantial, expect a phased take-up or a shorter first term to be part of the conversation
- A phased start is usually the sensible structure, not a sign of reluctance
- If a scheme needs a different route, we say so early rather than tie up your programme
Check Us Properly
A counterparty you can check.
Run a credit check before you sign anything: it is the right first step. Maine Property Solutions Ltd is a registered company, No. 16187542, with its filings on the public record. What we offer is a contract: one agreement, one payer and the rent on the same date every month.
- Check our covenant before you rely on the rent. Company No. 16187542. Ask for our filed position and we will send it straight away.
- A single unit is straightforward. One company let agreement, one monthly payment and a modest exposure on both sides.
- A block or a phase gets more structure. A phased take-up, a shorter first term or security agreed in writing. We would ask for the same in your position.
- We are not your sales agent. We do not market units for sale and we do not buy stock. That is clear from the first call.
Nothing on this page is a valuation, a financial promotion or investment advice. Any figures discussed are specific to the scheme in front of us and are agreed in writing before either side commits.
Tell Us About It
Send us the scheme.
Unit count, location, completion date and what you need to happen. We will come back with whether it is something we can take, what shape the agreement would be and a clear answer if it is not for us.
- No fee to talk to us and nothing to sign to get an answer
- A straight yes or no on whether it fits — we would rather decline early than waste your programme
- Terms agreed in writing before either side commits to anything

Your Questions
Block lettings, answered.
How do you take on a larger block?
In stages. A completed phase or a first group of units goes on one company let agreement, the arrangement is proven in practice and the rest follows on agreed terms. Send the scheme and we will set out the structure that fits it.
What would you expect on a larger scheme?
A phased take-up, proving the arrangement on a handful of units before the rest follows, or a shorter first term. Any security is agreed in writing and sized to the scheme.
Do you take on the block management as well?
Block management — the freeholder-side job of running communal areas, collecting service charge and handling the building's own compliance — is a separate discipline and not what we are offering. We are talking about occupying and running the residential units. If your block needs a managing agent, that is a different appointment.
Can you take a phase rather than the whole thing?
Usually a better idea for both of us. A completed phase is a cleaner unit of risk than a whole scheme. It lets both sides find out how the arrangement works in practice before anyone commits to the rest.
