Kirkby stock that is not earning.
If Kirkby stock is finished but not selling, it can earn while it waits. One company let, one monthly payment, and vacant possession back when you have a buyer.
Three Ways We Work
Three ways we work with developers.
Unsold & Slow-Moving Units
We become the tenant on completed stock and pay monthly while you carry on marketing it, with an agreed notice period to get it back. How this works →
Site Team Accommodation
Whole properties near site for the crew, cleaned and serviced, instead of a scatter of travel hotels and loose receipts. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
A completed phase taken as a unit, with break provisions so you can pull units back if the sales market turns. How this works →
Kirkby
How we price it
Term length changes the number. A longer commitment is worth more to us and lets us offer more; a short term with an early break carries risk that has to be priced rather than ignored.
Kirkby
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.
Kirkby
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
It works best where the owner wants a clear line between ownership and operation. Where somebody wants to stay closely involved day to day, the arrangement tends to create friction rather than remove it.
Kirkby
The compliance side
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.
Kirkby
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.
Kirkby
Where to start
An owner with several properties should say so early — it usually simplifies things rather than complicating them.

Straight Answers
What you should check first.
We are small. Two properties operated, no developer schemes completed, and an honest expectation that you will verify all of that rather than take it on trust. 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
Kirkby: the practical questions.
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 Kirkby 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 Kirkby 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.
