Leatherhead stock that is not earning.
An empty Leatherhead 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
The three arrangements.
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
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
One agreement and one payer across a whole phase, instead of a stack of individual lettings and holding costs. How this works →
Leatherhead
How the figure is reached
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
Handover runs off a schedule of condition with photographs, agreed by both sides on the day. It is the document that settles every argument about wear and tear before there is one.
Leatherhead
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.
Leatherhead
Certificates, licensing and insurance
Deposit handling, where it applies, follows the statutory scheme. There is no discretion in it.
Leatherhead
What we won't do
We do not guarantee returns, and an owner should treat anyone who does with suspicion. Property outcomes depend on things nobody controls.

Where to start
The quickest starts are the ones where compliance paperwork is already to hand. It is worth gathering it before getting in touch.

Straight Answers
The part that does not flatter us.
Maine Property Solutions Ltd is a young company. We operate two properties of our own and we have not yet run a developer scheme, so what we are offering is a contract rather than a track record. Run your covenant check before you rely on the rent. Company No. 16187542, and we will hand over what you need to check it properly. A phased start is usually the sensible structure on anything substantial, and we will suggest it before you have to.
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
Leatherhead: the practical questions.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Why would we let Leatherhead 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 Leatherhead 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 Leatherhead scheme details?
Yes, without fuss.
