At Silkstone we provide our clients with fully managed and maintained properties with a guaranteed rental income and NET yields of 8%+. Our investment opportunities are multi-let asylum houses, backed by the UK government and bespoke student accommodation.
We have 40 years experience in the industry, which enables us to see both the potential and the pitfalls of a property before we commit to buy. Our ethos of professionalism, integrity and diligence ensure that the quality of our service is second to none, making us a market leader in the North West.
Once completed, our asylum properties are handed over to a government appointed management company, with rents paid directly to you, regardless of occupancy (‘no void’ guarantee). We manage the annual safety certification requirements, and in addition, offer a competitive maintenance package (completely optional). Our student housing placed with the leading letting agent in the area, selected on a performance basis and comes with the same safety certification and maintenance package offers.
Properties which are provided for the UK government Asylum scheme are fully managed by the appropriate agency and are provided to our clients fully let. You receive a newly refurbished house, with FULL rental income guaranteed until 2017, with an extension due until 2019 and no management fees. All management fees are paid BY THE UK GOVERNMENT. All rents quoted are
The demand for student property remains high, but we have found that students are becoming more discerning. We provide student accommodation in the top 5% of anything available in our sector, with facilities such as broadband and virgin media as standard. Our letting agents have vast experience and consistently perform to the highest standards.
Unlike most property investment companies, Silkstone purchase and renovate every property with our own funds, taking all the initial risk. Properties are provided with all relevant certification ready for an independent inspection.
We have a track record of over 40 years dealing with property and people, and stand by our values of professionalism, integrity and diligence. Our working practice takes the risk away: We will never ask you to purchase an unfinished property to refurbish at your cost. This leaves you to provide certification, inspections and remortgage relying on the potential value of the completed works. Our properties are all supplied completed, certified and ready for independent inspection with a 1 year maintenance guarantee.
Our properties are independently valued and provide you with a 8%+ Net return, guaranteed until at least 2017 (pending extension to 2019).
We provide a completely ‘hands off’ approach to property investment, sourcing, refurbishing, letting, and managing each property for you, regardless of which type of investment you prefer.
