Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to the questions that matter.

If your question isn't covered here, send it over — you'll get a plain answer, not a sales pitch.

What does a property sourcing company actually do?

We find, assess, and package property investment opportunities on behalf of investors. That means monitoring the market (including off-market and auction deals), running the numbers with real comparables, and presenting you a clear summary so you can decide quickly whether a deal fits your strategy.

Which areas do you cover?

We focus on the North East of England — Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, Gateshead, North Tyneside, and County Durham. Deep local focus is deliberate: knowing individual streets and demand pockets is what makes due diligence meaningful.

What strategies do you source for?

Buy-to-let, light refurbishment, HMOs, serviced accommodation, and flips. When you register your criteria we capture your preferred strategy, budget, locations, and target returns so we only send deals that genuinely fit.

How are your deals different from what I can find on Rightmove?

Anyone can browse listings. The value is in the analysis: sold and rental comparables, priced refurb estimates, stress-tested cashflow, licensing and planning checks, and an honest statement of risks. We also access off-market opportunities that never reach the portals.

What are your fees?

Fees are agreed transparently before any commitment, typically as a fixed sourcing fee payable when you decide to proceed with a deal. Registering your criteria and receiving deal updates is free. Full terms are provided in writing before any engagement.

I'm a first-time investor. Can you still help?

Yes. Many of the opportunities we assess suit first-time investors, and our investor-ready summaries are designed to be understandable without jargon. We'll always tell you honestly if we think a deal — or a strategy — isn't right for your situation.

I want to sell my property. What happens when I contact you?

A straightforward conversation about your property and situation, a fast review against active investor demand, and honest feedback. If there's a fit we can connect the opportunity with suitable investors; if not, we'll tell you plainly rather than waste your time.

How do you handle my personal data?

In line with UK GDPR. We only collect what we need to match you with relevant opportunities, we never sell your data, and you can withdraw consent at any time. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Still have a question? Get in touch and we'll come back to you within two working days.
