Empty Property

At the end of 2015 there were over 600,000 dwellings in England that were deemed vacant.  Over 200,000 of these had been empty for 6 months or more.

 

Properties may be empty for several reasons:

• tenants have moved out and no one wants to move in
• the last owner has died and there are no family to take it on
• the property is being renovated but the builder has disappeared
• the owner has run out of money and cannot afford to bring the property up to a good standard

One thing for sure is that an empty property costs money:

• utility bills – gas, electric and water – may be still being paid
• 100% of council tax is still due after the first month of being empty
• no tenants living in the property is lost income for a landlord
• uninhabited properties tend to become run down faster due to a lack of maintenance and these costs can mount in the long run if not addresses

Empty properties not only cost the owner.  The whole community can be affected as the value of other houses in the neighbourhood may fall and the property itself can attract antisocial behaviour.

 

We would love to know about empty properties in any area and in any condition.

 

We work with investors who love to take these properties on, renovate them and bring them back into use.

If you own and empty property and don’t know what to do with it or if there is an empty property in your neighbourhood and you would like to see it back in use then use the contact form below to let us know.

We work confidentially with the details you provide and with respect for each situation we come across.  If you own the property we will make you a fair offer to take on your property.  If you let us know about a property and we complete a deal for it then we will pay you a finders fee for getting in touch.
