Off-Market in Southampton
Before your Southampton property goes on a portal.
Keep it private while you decide. A Southampton property can be registered for an off-market sale, let to us on a company let or managed from 20% of booking revenue.
Three Routes
Your three routes.
Sell It Quietly
The discreet route. Register the property, keep it private and pay nothing on the sale. How a quiet sale works →
Let It to Us
Swap the uncertainty for a fixed figure. A company let with us as the lessee, paid monthly, occupied or not. How a company let works →
We Run It
The route most owners should start with: full management from 20%, with the property still yours. How management works →

The case for going to us first
A listing sets a price in public and any reduction is public too. A private conversation sets nothing until you choose a route and see the terms in writing. An estate agent is the right route when the highest price is what matters most. When privacy, speed or certainty matter more, an off-market route is worth a conversation first and it costs nothing to have.

How the quiet sale works
Registering a property commits you to nothing. The details sit on our off-market register, investors on our list make any offer below open market value and a sale goes ahead only if you accept one.
Southampton
Choosing between the three
A property in good repair near steady business and leisure demand tends to suit management, where the owner shares in what it earns. A tired property that needs work before anyone could let it tends to suit the quiet sale as it is.

The letting routes
If you would rather keep the property, it can be let to us on a company let agreement: Maine Property Solutions Ltd as the lessee, one fixed sum every month and the void risk with us. Or keep full control of the income with management from 20% of booking revenue. Letting to us can carry a break clause, so the property can come back for a sale when the market suits. Many owners use a company let to bridge a slow sales market.

Blocks, portfolios and new-build units
Completed new-build units that are slow to sell can go on a company let while they are marketed, with a break clause so each can come back when a buyer appears. A converted building with several flats works like a small block: one agreement for the building, or management of each flat with one statement for the whole.

For estate and letting agents
An agent can introduce a property on the client's behalf with the client's agreement. We talk to the agent first and never approach the client around them.
Southampton
What we will ask for
For a lease or management: the title, lender consent where there is a mortgage, the insurance schedule and current gas, electrical and EPC certificates. For a sale: the address, the condition and whether it is tenanted.

How to start
WhatsApp is the quickest way: send a message with the town and the type of property. The form on the off-market page and a call to 02477 450677 work just as well.
