About Us
In 2016, the duo turned their focus to building their own property portfolio, concentrating on buy-to-lets, HMOs, and serviced accommodation units. By 2022, they made the strategic decision to sell their estate agency in order to concentrate on growing their portfolio and to launch a new venture dedicated to supporting fellow property professionals.
The sale of the estate agency sparked a transformative approach to their work. Embracing a remote setup with location independence in mind, they began collaborating with remote assistants to develop robust systems and precise standard operating procedures to manage their property portfolio. This innovative approach has enabled their remote team to successfully & completely manage over 80 units for the past two years and counting.
