Developers in Gosforth
Gosforth stock that is not earning.
For developers holding completed Gosforth units: a fixed monthly rent under one agreement, paid whether or not anyone is staying in the property.
Three Ways We Work
What we can take on.
Unsold & Slow-Moving Units
A finished unit that has not sold earns a fixed monthly sum instead of a council tax bill, and comes back to you when a buyer appears. How this works →
Site Team Accommodation
Accommodation for site staff and contractors, taken care of end to end and settled on one company invoice. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
The whole block on one agreement, priced for the term and agreed in writing before anyone commits. How this works →
Gosforth
What drives the number
We price the scheme in front of us rather than the postcode. Two developments a mile apart can support very different figures once access, parking, service charge and layout are taken into account.
Gosforth
How it runs day to day
Once the property is handed over, rent is paid on the same date each month for the term, whether or not anyone is staying in it. That is the arrangement itself, not a concession.
Gosforth
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
An owner who has been let down before usually wants to know what happens when something goes wrong rather than what happens when it goes right. That is the correct question to ask.
Gosforth
Certificates, licensing and insurance
Where a council requires planning consent for a particular use, that is a question for the council and not for us to answer on their behalf. We will point an owner at the right place.
Gosforth
What we won't do
We are not a building contractor. Where work is needed we introduce the trades we use, and the contract for that work sits between the owner and the trade, priced before it starts.
Gosforth
Getting started
Getting in touch costs nothing and commits to nothing. That is not a sales line; it is how the process is set up.
Straight Answers
Where we actually are.
There is no track record here to lean on. Two properties, no developer schemes, and a company young enough that its filed position is worth reading before you build a cashflow on our rent. Company No. 16187542, and we will hand over what you need to check it properly. For a block or a phase, assume we will be asked for security of some kind, and assume we will agree that it is reasonable.
Nothing on this page is a valuation, a financial promotion or investment advice. Terms are specific to the scheme in front of us and are agreed in writing before either side commits.
Your Questions
Common questions from Gosforth housebuilders.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What do you need from us to price a Gosforth scheme?
Location, plot numbers, tenure and the service charge position, the completion date, and your expected sales window. Certificates where they exist. The more of that we have, the less hedged the answer.
How long does it take to get an answer?
The review itself is quick. What usually sets the timeline is compliance paperwork - the EPC, the electrical certificate or the gas safety record arriving - rather than anything on our side.
What condition do the Gosforth units come back in?
The standard is agreed before we take them, off a schedule of condition with photographs at handover. Fair wear and tear is expected on a property that has been lived in; anything beyond that is ours to put right.
Do you buy unsold stock?
No. We take property on a lease and pay rent - we are not a cash buyer and we do not make offers on completed units. If something needs work rather than being finished, send it to us and we will see whether it fits an investor on our list.
Are you VAT registered?
Maine Property Solutions Ltd is not VAT registered, so our invoices carry no VAT. VAT on property leases depends on tenure and on whether an option to tax is in place, so take your own advice on your recovery position.
