A complete property transformation, investment and sales solution.

Unlock the potential in your property.

Some properties need more than an estate agent. They may require investment, refurbishment, project management or a completely different strategy before they can achieve their full potential.

The DevelopRent Property Value Partnership brings together the expertise, investment and practical delivery needed to transform those opportunities and take them through to sale.

Instead of simply putting a property on the market in its existing condition, we look at what could be achieved by taking a strategic approach to its value.

The opportunity

The property may be worth more than it currently looks

A property can become difficult to sell for many reasons.

Inherited or subject to probate
Vacant or neglected
In need of significant refurbishment
Outdated or poorly presented
A former rental property requiring improvement
Difficult to finance or market in its current condition
Unoccupied and deteriorating
A property where the owner doesn’t have the funds or time to carry out the work
A property where the best route to market isn’t immediately obvious

In these circumstances, simply putting the property on the market may not be the best strategy.

PVP takes a different approach.

We look at the property as an opportunity rather than simply an asset to sell.

The partnership

What is the Property Value Partnership?

The DevelopRent Property Value Partnership (PVP) is an integrated property solution designed to identify, fund, transform and prepare suitable properties for sale.

The partnership combines:

Develop Rent

Opportunity & Property Strategy

We identify suitable properties, engage with owners and introducers, assess the opportunity and coordinate the overall property strategy.

Oak House Living Spaces

Investment & Funding

Where appropriate, Oak House Living Spaces can explore investment and funding structures designed to enable the property transformation.

SE6 Services

Refurbishment & Project Delivery

SE6 Services manages and delivers the refurbishment, improvement and preparation works required to transform the property.

Sale & Market Strategy

Preparing the Property for Its Next Stage

Once the transformation is complete, the property can be prepared for market with a strategy designed around its improved condition, presentation and potential.

One journey

One partnership. One strategy. One property journey.

Rather than the owner having to coordinate:

Investor→Builder→Project Manager→Estate Agent→Solicitor→Buyer

PVP brings the key stages together into one coordinated proposition.

Let’s see what the property could become.

The process

How PVP works

Seven stages, from the first conversation about a property through to the agreed value outcome.

Tell us about the property

Give us the basic details of the property and its current circumstances.

We are particularly interested in properties that have potential but require investment, improvement or a different approach before sale.

We assess the opportunity

We consider factors including:

Current condition
Location
Existing property value
Potential value following improvements
Required refurbishment
Likely project costs
Timescale
Market demand
Potential exit strategy
Owner objectives

The objective is to establish whether there is a genuine value-creation opportunity.

We build the property strategy

If the opportunity is suitable, we develop a strategy around the property.

This may involve refurbishment, reconfiguration, presentation improvements, investment and/or repositioning before the property is taken to market.

The strategy is property-specific.

There is no one-size-fits-all solution.

Investment & funding

Where appropriate, the partnership can explore an investment or funding structure to support the required works.

The commercial arrangement is agreed before works commence.

This means everyone understands their role, responsibilities and potential financial outcome.

Transform the property

SE6 Services can manage and deliver the agreed refurbishment and improvement works.

This may include:

Kitchens
Bathrooms
Extensions
Internal refurbishment
Decorating
Flooring
Electrical works
Plumbing and heating
External improvements
Gardens
General repairs
Property presentation

The objective is simple:

Turn the property’s existing potential into a stronger market proposition.

Prepare for market

Once the works are complete, the property can be professionally prepared for sale.

The focus moves from project to product.

Presentation, positioning and marketing become critical in converting the improvements into market appeal.

Realise the opportunity

The property is taken through the agreed sales strategy.

The final financial outcome depends on the property’s market value, costs, agreed investment structure and eventual sale price.

Where a value uplift or profit-sharing arrangement has been agreed, the proceeds are distributed according to the contractual terms.

The difference

Why PVP is different

We look beyond the current condition

A tired property isn’t necessarily a poor property.

We look at what the property could become.

We connect investment with delivery

Funding alone doesn’t transform a property.

Neither does a builder working without a strategy.

PVP connects the investment, project delivery and property strategy.

We create a single property journey

The owner doesn’t have to navigate a collection of disconnected providers.

The partnership coordinates the process from opportunity through to sale.

We focus on value creation

The objective isn’t simply to sell quickly.

It’s to determine whether investment and improvement can create a stronger overall opportunity.

Who it serves

Who is PVP for?

Property owners

Particularly owners of properties that are:

Inherited
Vacant
Neglected
Outdated
In need of refurbishment
Difficult to sell
Former rental properties
Requiring investment before sale

Don’t know whether to sell as-is or improve first?

Let us assess the opportunity.

For estate agents

Turn difficult instructions into potential opportunities

Estate agents regularly encounter properties that are difficult to market.

Perhaps the property requires £30,000–£100,000+ of work.

Perhaps the owner cannot finance the refurbishment.

Perhaps the property has been sitting on the market.

Perhaps the seller has inherited the property and simply wants a solution.

PVP gives estate agents another option.

Instead of losing the instruction or accepting a compromised sale, introduce the property to our partnership for assessment.

Your role

You identify the opportunity.

We assess whether PVP could provide a viable solution.

If the property proceeds, the agreed referral and commercial arrangements are respected.

Refer a property

For professional introducers

For solicitors, probate professionals & other introducers

Help your client find a practical property solution

Inherited and probate properties can present complicated decisions.

The family may want to sell, but the property may require significant work before it is ready for market.

PVP provides a route for suitable properties to be assessed and potentially transformed without the owner having to organise every element themselves.

Professional referral

If you regularly encounter property owners who may benefit from a property transformation strategy, we would be interested in speaking with you.

The transformation

From underperforming property to market opportunity

Drag the handle to compare the same property before and after the work.

Before

A property may have:

Deferred maintenance
Poor presentation
Outdated interiors
An overgrown garden
Unfinished works
Limited buyer appeal

After

The same property can potentially become:

Fully refurbished
Professionally presented
More appealing to buyers
Better positioned for its target market
Ready for photography and marketing
A more compelling investment proposition

The objective is not to spend money for the sake of spending money.

Every improvement should be considered in terms of its contribution to the overall property strategy.

The principle

Investment should have a purpose.

Before undertaking significant work, we consider:

What is the property worth today?

What could it potentially be worth after improvement?

What will the transformation cost?

What is the likely market opportunity?

Does the proposed strategy make commercial sense?

If the numbers don’t stack up, we say so.

That is an important part of the PVP approach.
