Reading stock that is not earning.
If Reading 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
What we can take on.
Unsold & Slow-Moving Units
Finished units producing income while they sit on the market, with vacant possession returned on agreed notice. 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
Whole-block lettings under a single company let, with a phased start if that suits both sides better. How this works →

The commercial mechanics
Whatever is agreed gets written down before either side commits, including what happens if it stops working. A rent with no agreed exit is not a better deal, it is an argument scheduled for later.

The process, step by step
If units are needed back for a sale, the break provisions agreed at the start are what govern. Give the notice that was agreed and we plan around it.

Is this right for you?
Portfolio owners tend to find it simplest, because consolidated reporting removes the per-property admin that makes a portfolio tiring.

The paperwork that has to be right
An electrical installation condition report has a life. So does a gas certificate. Both get diarised rather than remembered.

The limits, stated up front
We do not market a property an owner has asked us to keep private. Confidentiality is not a premium service.

How to begin
An owner with several properties should say so early — it usually simplifies things rather than complicating them.

Straight Answers
The part that does not flatter us.
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
Common questions from Reading housebuilders.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Do you actually pay if a Reading unit sits empty?
Yes. The rent is a fixed monthly sum under the agreement, payable whether or not anyone is staying in the property. The void risk moves to us, which is why the figure sits below the best a unit might achieve in a strong month.
Can we keep marketing the Reading units for sale?
Yes, and most developers do. A break clause lets you recover vacant possession on an agreed notice period once you have a buyer, and viewings are arranged with reasonable notice.
Is this an AST?
No. It is a company let: Maine Property Solutions Ltd becomes the tenant and carries the rent obligation. Your solicitor should read the agreement before you sign it, and we would expect them to.
How many Reading units would you take?
A single unit is straightforward. A whole block is a bigger step and will get a more cautious answer, because we are a small company - we would rather say that on the first call than three weeks into your programme.
