Developers in Leigh
Leigh stock that is not earning.
We take Leigh stock on a company let and carry the void risk ourselves. You get one counterparty, one payment date and a term agreed in writing.
Three Ways We Work
What we would take from a developer.
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
Beds for the people building it: your team together, near site, on one account that invoices once a month. 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 →
Leigh
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.
Leigh
The process, step by step
Compliance paperwork usually decides the timeline rather than the legals. Certificates and sign-offs land when they land, and we would rather wait for them than take on a unit we should not.
Leigh
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
The owners who get most from it are the ones who tell us their constraints early: dates they need, works they will not fund, tenants they will not take. Constraints are easy to design around and awkward to discover.
Leigh
The compliance side
Insurance written for standard residential letting usually will not cover the intended use. It is worth checking before rather than discovering after.
Leigh
Things we don't do
We do not market a property an owner has asked us to keep private. Confidentiality is not a premium service.
Leigh
Where to start
An owner with several properties should say so early — it usually simplifies things rather than complicating them.

Straight Answers
Before you plan around us.
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. Where the numbers get serious, so does the security around them. That conversation happens early rather than late.
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
Leigh developer 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 Leigh 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 Leigh 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.
