Investing with Us
Renewed activity in the Central London residential market has created opportunities to acquire and develop high quality residential property for sale or let. The growing importance of this asset class is underpinned by increased activity amongst overseas investors.
The availability of suitable property for sale together with opportunity to generate capital gains during the development process has created the opportunity to produce substantial returns for investors.
Investors will benefit from the process in several ways:
- By investing now in the right stock, investors will benefit directly from a recovering market, estimated by Savills Research Department to grow by around 33% by the end of 2015.
- By developing its own sites, investors retain the development profit as a capital gain typically representing 20 – 25% of costs.
- By acquiring stock at a discount, the rental yields on returns will be 20 – 25% higher than the yield on value, thus significantly increasing rental returns on equity invested, should investors wish to retain the completed development for investment.
- With Leighton & Henley carrying out the development process, investors will have much greater control over the design and quality of the completed units.
