Property investment works

It’s our job to unearth property investment opportunities on a weekly basis. We’re hugely experienced and knowledgeable regarding property investment in the local area we should be, we’ve been doing it for 30 years.

Although we specialise in the Plymouth area, we can also cover the Tavistock area. Our clients are from across the UK and they make up our list of retained clients. It’s these clients that we stay in contact with constantly, helping them review their portfolios, offering up the very latest opportunities that we find.

The way we see it is that we ‘lead the horse to water’ by using our local market knowledge to put potential investments on the table. The trust that these clients have in us at Francis Stuart is demonstrated by the fact that many clients don’t even physically visit these properties before they end up purchasing them .. that tells you something.

Our clients consider that the fees we charge aren’t actually basic costs, they’re investments and every good investment is measured by a return. This is the reason why our first time buy-to-let clients soon become retained clients and it’s why our retained clients have often been with us for many years. We help them grow and manage their portfolios while securing the all-important returns … that is, after all, why they invest in property.

Regardless of what you may hear, the buy-to-let market is still incredibly buoyant but the most important element is getting that property right in the first place. Making the right decision at that early stage will undoubtedly help avoid issues further down the line and that’s why the Francis Stuart Property Sourcing Service is worth its weight in gold.

Why should you work with Francis Stuart?

Let’s say you’ve sold a business, inherited some money or even won the lottery … Congratulations! Whichever one it is. The next question is: what are you going to do with that lump sum?

Well, if you’re seriously thinking about property investment then you need to have a chat with us at Francis Stuart. We’d love to talk.

We understand that everyone’s situation is different and that investors have differing wants, needs and desires. However, we feel that it’s essential for us to get to know you and understand your unique requirements, that way we can provide you with a bespoke service that generates a healthy return and that isn’t just a time-wasting exercise.

Our Property Sourcing Service

In simple terms, we offer the two following services:

Source to Order

This is where we act for retained clients, sourcing property investment opportunities based on the pre-agreed criteria that we set between ourselves and our clients. We only work with a small handful of retained clients at any one time and it is the very epitome of a bespoke property investment service. Sourcing fees for this service are available on request.

General Deal

This is when we unearth an opportunity which, for a specific reason is not suitable for one of our retained clients. At this stage we offer that deal to the investors on our mailing list. The sourcing fee is dependent on the property that’s on offer.
