Trowbridge stock that is not earning.
An empty Trowbridge 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
The three arrangements.
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
Accommodation for site staff and contractors, taken care of end to end and settled on one company invoice. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
A phase let as one thing to one counterparty, with the void risk sitting on our side of the line. How this works →

How the numbers are worked out
Term length changes the number. A longer commitment is worth more to us and lets us offer more; a short term with an early break carries risk that has to be priced rather than ignored.

How the work gets done
Once the property is handed over, rent is paid on the same date each month for the term, whether or not anyone is staying in it. That is the arrangement itself, not a concession.

Who this suits — and who it doesn't
It works best where the owner wants a clear line between ownership and operation. Where somebody wants to stay closely involved day to day, the arrangement tends to create friction rather than remove it.

Certificates, licensing and insurance
Anything that is the owner's statutory responsibility stays the owner's responsibility, and the agreement says which items those are.

Where we draw the line
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.

How to begin
The quickest starts are the ones where compliance paperwork is already to hand. It is worth gathering it before getting in touch.

Straight Answers
What you should check first.
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. For a block or a phase, assume we will be asked for security of some kind, and assume we will agree that it is reasonable.
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
Trowbridge 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 Trowbridge 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 Trowbridge 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.
