Herne Bay stock that is not earning.
An empty Herne Bay 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 can take on.
Unsold & Slow-Moving Units
Rather than discount the last few plots, let them to us on a fixed rent and keep the asking price where you want it. How this works →
Site Team Accommodation
Somewhere sensible for a travelling crew to stay, with kitchen and laundry, run by us and billed to the company. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
A phase let as one thing to one counterparty, with the void risk sitting on our side of the line. How this works →

How the numbers are worked out
Service charge, ground rent and who insures what all change the net position, so they are settled during pricing rather than discovered after handover.

How the work gets done
Whoever occupies the property does so under our agreement, not the developer's. The relationship stays with us and we deal with them.

Where this fits, and where it doesn't
It works for owners who are some distance away, because nothing about it requires them to be nearby.

Compliance, plainly
The paperwork is dull and it is the part that protects an owner when something goes wrong. It gets done properly rather than quickly.

Where we draw the line
We do not guarantee returns, and an owner should treat anyone who does with suspicion. Property outcomes depend on things nobody controls.

How to begin
There is no obligation at any stage before signature, and that is said plainly rather than buried.

Straight Answers
Straight about our size.
Our size is the first thing you should test. Two properties, no scheme history, and a covenant you are entitled to examine before any of this becomes a plan. Company No. 16187542, and we will hand over what you need to check it properly. On larger schemes a deposit, a guarantee or a staged take-up is the normal answer, not a sign of reluctance.
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 Herne Bay housebuilders.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Why would we let Herne Bay units rather than just discount them?
A discount is permanent and a letting is not. If the sales market is slow rather than broken, income across the slow period plus a break clause for when a buyer appears usually beats cutting the asking price on the last few plots.
What happens to the Herne Bay agreement if we sell the block?
The agreement is with the property, so a buyer takes it subject to our lease. That is worth raising with your agent early, because for some buyers an income-producing block is more attractive and for others it is not.
Can you house our site team instead?
That is a separate arrangement we also offer: managed accommodation near site for your own staff and contractors, on one company account with a single monthly invoice.
Who is responsible for gas, electrical and fire safety?
A lease does not make an owner's safety duties disappear and we will not pretend otherwise. Which obligations sit where is written into the agreement before anyone signs, and both solicitors should look at that clause specifically.
Will you sign an NDA before we send Herne Bay scheme details?
Yes, without fuss.
