Seaford stock that is not earning.
An empty Seaford 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
Three things we do.
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
Managed accommodation near site for your own staff and contractors, on one company account with a single monthly invoice. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
A block or completed phase let and run under one agreement, rather than sold plot by plot into a slow market. How this works →
Seaford
How the numbers are worked out
The rent sits below the best a unit might achieve in a strong month, and it should. What you are buying is certainty and the removal of void risk, and that carries a price on both sides of the deal.
Seaford
How it runs day to day
Both sides use solicitors. We are asking a developer to grant a lease to a company, and nobody should sign that on a handshake.
Seaford
Who this suits — and who it doesn't
An owner who has been let down before usually wants to know what happens when something goes wrong rather than what happens when it goes right. That is the correct question to ask.
Seaford
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.
Seaford
Where we draw the line
We do not take on property we do not think will work. Turning something down costs us a fee and saves an owner a year of disappointment.
Seaford
How to begin
We would rather spend longer on the first conversation and less on fixing a misunderstanding later.

Straight Answers
Where we actually are.
We would rather you heard this from us than found it in a credit check: we operate two properties and have never run a developer scheme. The offer is a contractual one, and it deserves the same scrutiny you would give any new counterparty. 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
What developers want to know about Seaford.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Why would we let Seaford 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 Seaford 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 Seaford scheme details?
Yes, without fuss.
