Grimsby stock that is not earning.
An empty Grimsby unit still costs finance, council tax and service charge every month it stands there. We take it on a company let and pay a fixed monthly rent instead.
Three Ways We Work
What we would take from a developer.
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
Managed accommodation near site for your own staff and contractors, on one company account with a single monthly 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 →
Grimsby
How the figure is reached
The rent we can commit to comes from what the units would realistically let for across the whole term, less what it costs to run them and the value of carrying the void risk. It is arithmetic on a specific scheme, not a percentage applied to an asking price.

What actually happens
Both sides use solicitors. We are asking a developer to grant a lease to a company, and nobody should sign that on a handshake.

Who this suits — and who it doesn't
Portfolio owners tend to find it simplest, because consolidated reporting removes the per-property admin that makes a portfolio tiring.
Grimsby
Compliance, plainly
Fire safety equipment is specified by use, not by preference. Getting it wrong is the kind of mistake that only surfaces at the worst moment.
Grimsby
What we won't do
We do not use a landlord's property to test something we have not done before.
Grimsby
The first step
An owner with several properties should say so early — it usually simplifies things rather than complicating them.
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. The bigger the scheme, the more structure it needs around it. We would ask for the same in your position.
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
Grimsby schemes, explained.
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 Grimsby 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 Grimsby 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.
