Developers in Taunton
Taunton stock that is not earning.
If Taunton 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 would take from a developer.
Unsold & Slow-Moving Units
Completed stock taken on a company let with a fixed monthly rent, and a break clause so you keep vacant possession for a sale. 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
A block or completed phase let and run under one agreement, rather than sold plot by plot into a slow market. How this works →
Taunton
What drives the number
A figure quoted before anyone has looked at the scheme is a guess. We would rather take a day and give you a number we can hold for the full term than win the conversation with something we quietly revise in month seven.
Taunton
What to expect once it starts
Heads of terms come before lawyers. Rent, term, break provisions, condition standards and who holds which obligation are agreed in plain language first, so the drafting is a formality rather than a negotiation.
Taunton
Is this right for you?
It suits someone who values a predictable outcome over an occasional excellent month. If the excellent month is the point, a different model fits better.

The paperwork that has to be right
Deposit handling, where it applies, follows the statutory scheme. There is no discretion in it.

Things we don't do
We do not use a landlord's property to test something we have not done before.
Taunton
How to begin
An initial conversation is worth more than a form. Most of what matters — constraints, timing, what the owner actually wants — does not fit in a field.

Straight Answers
What you should check first.
Our size is the first thing you should test. Two properties, no scheme history, and a covenant you are entitled to examine before any of this becomes a plan. 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
Common questions from Taunton housebuilders.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Do you actually pay if a Taunton 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 Taunton 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 Taunton 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.
