The Market
Why Cambridge works for investors.
Cambridge sits inside the East of England, one of our active sourcing regions. Cambridge's university and life-sciences cluster make it one of the highest-demand, highest-value markets in the country.
The East of England spans the Cambridge technology corridor — one of the highest-demand, highest-value markets in the country — and more affordable towns across the wider region. Cambridge itself carries premium prices driven by the university and a booming tech and life-sciences economy; the surrounding towns offer more accessible refurbishment opportunities with strong underlying demand.
If Cambridge is on your list, tell us — off-market stock here is matched to investors on our list before anyone else sees it.

Cambridge
How we price it
A deal with no contingency is not a deal. We would rather the numbers were dull and robust than exciting and fragile.
Cambridge
What to expect once it starts
Nothing is payable unless a purchase completes. There is no fee for looking and no fee for a deal that falls through.
Cambridge
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.
Cambridge
The paperwork that has to be right
Insurance written for standard residential letting usually will not cover the intended use. It is worth checking before rather than discovering after.
Cambridge
What we won't do
We do not quote a figure before somebody has looked at the property. A number produced from a postcode is a marketing device, not an appraisal.
Cambridge
Getting started
An owner with several properties should say so early — it usually simplifies things rather than complicating them.

Your Questions
Cambridge sourcing, explained.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What is a typical Cambridge project?
Cosmetic through to full modernisation. Which end of that range suits you is one of the questions we ask up front, because it changes what we send you.
Do you provide surveys or valuations?
No. You should commission your own survey and your own valuation, and we would think less of an investor who did not.
Can I view before committing?
Yes. We would not expect anyone to commit to a property they have not seen.
What if I want to hold rather than flip?
Then we will match you against stock that suits holding. The strategy drives the sourcing, not the other way round.
