Developers in Swansea
Swansea stock that is not earning.
For developers holding completed Swansea units: a fixed monthly rent under one agreement, paid whether or not anyone is staying in the property.
Three Ways We Work
Where we can help.
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
Somewhere sensible for a travelling crew to stay, with kitchen and laundry, run by us and billed to the company. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
The whole block on one agreement, priced for the term and agreed in writing before anyone commits. How this works →
Swansea
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.
Swansea
What to expect once it starts
Both sides use solicitors. We are asking a developer to grant a lease to a company, and nobody should sign that on a handshake.
Swansea
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
This suits an owner who wants the property to work without becoming a second job. It does not suit someone who wants to approve every booking — that is a different relationship and it does not run well.
Swansea
Compliance, plainly
Licensing and planning requirements vary by council and they change. We check the current position for the relevant authority rather than assume a rule that was true somewhere else.
Swansea
What we won't do
We do not lock owners into terms they have not read. If somebody wants a week to have the agreement looked over, they should take it.
Swansea
Where to start
The first step is an appraisal, and it is free. An owner who decides against it afterwards has lost nothing but an hour.
Straight Answers
Before you plan around us.
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. On anything larger than a handful of units, expect a rent deposit, a guarantee or a shorter first term to be part of the conversation.
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
Straight answers for Swansea developers.
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 Swansea 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 Swansea 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.
