The Challenge
Our client, an investor, was looking to acquire a rental investment with the flexibility for future family use. Securing the right property at the best possible price was key.
The initial search area was broad, with a brief focused on purchasing two one-bedroom apartments that would perform well as rental investments.
During the search, we identified a well-located two-bedroom apartment in Marylebone which, while slightly outside the original brief, stood out due to its value for money and clear potential to add value. We inspected the property, carried out detailed research on comparable sales, and appointed a trusted contractor to provide a comprehensive breakdown of refurbishment costs. This confirmed that the property was attractively priced relative to the wider market with potential for a healthy rental yield and future capital appreciation.
The Perfect Conclusion
Leveraging our client’s strong buying position, we successfully negotiated an 11% discount from the asking price, securing an excellent investment with both immediate rental appeal and long-term upside.
The Unfair Advantage
We know how to spot an opportunity. Looking slightly outside of our client’s brief led us to securing an excellent investment flat in one of London’s most sought-after postcodes. Our black book of trusted contractors meant we were able to assess the apartments potential and quickly move to offer, securing an impressive 11% discount.
