A Very Different Approach

Rupert Smith of Complete RPI explains how taking a commercial view to managing your UK property is the only way to go

Equity Investment in UK Real Estate

Not only do we acquire individual residential investment opportunity for clients we also raise capital and co-invest with UK residential developers, which has proven to be very lucrative.

As senior debt has been harder to identify and the “pinny strings” have been tightened we at CRPI have identified the opportunity to co-invest before the bricks have been laid. We work in conjunction with many smaller developers across the UK which have obtained planning permission to develop smaller more boutique residential developments and require an element of equity to complete the scheme.

Historically we have raised capital either with one or a number of clients
anywhere from ￡100,000 to ￡10,000,000, with a return paid on capital invested securitised by the land and a profit share. We have also grouped together investors who wished for exposure in a prime market as a collective which reduces risk capital exposure.

In most circumstances investors who injected capital from the outset decided to retain the "end product" which we let and manage and they have had significant capital uplift in.

Should this topic be of interest please do not hesitate to contact us and we can discuss previous and current opportunity.

Next month I shall be covering the topic of alternative property investment and global exposure. Many thanks for reading.
