The Market
The Shrewsbury investor market.
Shrewsbury sits inside the West Midlands, one of our active sourcing regions. Shrewsbury is Shropshire's county town, with an affluent hinterland and visitor appeal.
The West Midlands is one of the UK's most active investor markets, and it's the region we know best. Birmingham anchors it — the country's second city, with HS2's Curzon Street terminus, the Smithfield regeneration and five universities driving relentless rental demand. Around it sit some of England's most affordable entry points: Stoke-on-Trent, Wolverhampton and the Black Country towns, where tired terraces and unmodernised homes still change hands at prices that leave room for a refurbishment margin.
Register with Shrewsbury in your target areas and anything that surfaces there is matched to your criteria first.

Shrewsbury
How we price it
The exit matters as much as the entry. A property that only works if it sells at the top of its range is a property with no margin for a slow market.
Shrewsbury
What to expect once it starts
Conveyancing is the buyer's own solicitor. We do not appoint it and we do not sit in the middle of it.
Shrewsbury
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.
Shrewsbury
The compliance side
Insurance written for standard residential letting usually will not cover the intended use. It is worth checking before rather than discovering after.
Shrewsbury
The limits, stated up front
We do not chase volume for its own sake. A property taken on badly costs more than it earns.
Shrewsbury
Where to start
There is no obligation at any stage before signature. That is said plainly rather than buried.

Your Questions
Before you register for Shrewsbury stock.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
How is your sourcing different?
The stock comes from our own seller pipeline rather than from the portals, and we are honest about condition. A deal that only works if nothing goes wrong is not a deal.
Do you work with limited companies?
Yes, and most investors buy that way. How you hold it is a question for your accountant, not for us.
What is the minimum budget?
It varies with the area. Tell us the band you are working in and we will tell you honestly whether we see stock in it.
How do I hear about deals?
By registering your criteria. Matching stock goes to the list before it goes anywhere else.
