“I am a Kuwaiti retired naval Officer. After 30 years of service in the Kuwaiti Navy, I was looking for peace of mind. I started to think of making my savings do the work for me. I thought Great Britain is a safe place to do my investment. I think it is a stable property market. I was looking for long term investment so that I would receive pension type income. I wanted a good net rental yield from the property and growth in value over the long term – Not to forget good management Package and rental guarantee. Actually, at first, I wasn’t sure that Find UK Property will keep their word & guarantees they state on the website and emails, but I was wrong – they kept their words and provided very good service. Because of my initial concerns, I made the effort of making a special visit just to see them, look at the properties, meet a solicitor and to make sure that my investments would be safe. When I came, I really enjoyed the visit to meet them at their offices and to see the properties. They picked me up from a hotel in Manchester and later dropped me off at the rail station as I had to do some things in London. I spent 4 hours with them and over this time I asked many questions and satisfied myself. They also took me to a lawyer firm to meet a solicitor, who later did my purchase registration at the Land Registry. I saw numerous properties in different areas in several towns. The visit was good as it addressed all of my concerns and I was happy to buy two 2-bed properties. I am very happy with my purchases. The people at Find UK property have been very good (especially Hashim, Gary, Andy and Tariq). My properties have been registered under my name at the Land Registry and I have got the documents for both of my properties. They have been paying my rent regularly at the end of each quarter into my bank account. The thing I like most is the Guaranteed rent system as this mean I do not need to worry about anything and I know for sure what my payments will be in the future. Other things I like are:- – They always reply quickly and fully to any of my questions – Everything is done by them. I do not need to worry about anything or deal with tenants or repairs – They give good honest advice and do not oversell. Yes. I would recommend Find UK Property and I have already recommended them to my brother’s family who have also purchased a larger 3-bed property, without even visiting them. The property has been registered under their name and they are also getting rental income regularly. Find UK Property do not over promise and deliver on exactly what they say. Thanks for the opportunity for me to provide this feedback. Lastly, I like to say, thank you so much Tariq and Hashim – you were very supportive. ”

“I am Ivan Yau. I am living in Hong Kong working in the I.T. sector. I like travel a lot that I have visited UK such as London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, as well as U.S., Japan, Doha, etc. As an investor, I always want to diversify my investments, I like UK. UK people are nice. UK legal system is well-defined that can protect both the landlords and tenants. As I worked in the I.T. sector, I found Find UK Property just in Google search. At the very beginning, I doubt everything because I am not familiar with UK property investment as well as this company. But then after few emails and phone calls, I finally booked a 10-hr flight and met the staff including senior consultant, Tariq, in their UK offices. I visited the offices and saw the properties. And then they also led me to meet a lawyer which offer identification service to people. I found that everything I saw was very concrete. All the things meet my expectations; I am very happy about that. Find UK Property transferred rental income to investors in a very timely manner with a detailed quarterly report. I can see every transaction very clearly. The other three things I also like are: i) Tariq is nice and helpful, he answered my concerns in emails. ii) the admin staff is also very professional, they sent detailed quarterly report to clients in a timely manner. iii) the whole investment is truly hand-off for me. I will recommend Find UK Property just like I am now writing this sentence. The reasons are that they are very professional and helpful. They manage the properties quite well that the property management is hand-off to investor. I am also happy to provide my photo.”

“I am a Nigerian lawyer, living and working in Lagos, Nigeria. I bought an investment property in the UK with my savings and funds borrowed from my bank using my property in Nigeria as collateral in order to diversify my retirement investment portfolio ‎which was initially concentrated in the Nigerian economy into a more stable investment climate in the UK. I also liked the fact that I would also be entitled to tax free income in the UK due to personal tax allowance of £10,000 per annum. I wanted an investment outside Nigeria with a good rental yield compared with similar investment in Nigeria. Being a non-UK resident, I also wanted the property without maintenance and other issues as well as rental guarantee. I was initially hesitant about dealing with the company and the property because I never heard of Find Uk Property until I accidentally stumbled across the company website link on the internet while randomly searching the internet ‎for property investment prospects in the UK. ‎ My visit to the company office was impressive though I almost messed up the schedule because I got on the wrong train on my way to Preston! That notwithstanding I was picked up from the train station and later dropped off as I had to return to London. I was able to cram visits to the office, two properties at various stages of renovation as well as meeting the solicitor for ID attesting within an hour in order not to miss the train for my return trip to London that day. The purchase and service has met my expectations and aims. I am happy. I like the Guaranteed rent, Title registration and property maintenance aspects of the services most! I also like the opportunity to purchase additional units of investment properties on instalment payment basis (paid via rental income) without incurring interest on the purchase price of such additional investment properties. I would definitely recommend Find UK Property to others because they have met and even exceeded my expectations. Big thumbs up for the opportunity for me to provide this feedback. Please find attached a picture of me.”

“I’m British living in South Africa, my husband and I are in our early sixties, we have lived in SA for 40yrs but return on holiday to the UK often and will possibly return to the UK at some point. We had some funds and didn’t want to invest in any more property in SA, so being British we thought of the UK, did some research and found Find UK Property. We wanted to get a reasonable rental but more to the point was that the property would hold its value, and the rental would be good, we get a good interest rates in SA but our currency is losing so much value we need our funds to hold its value. Our concerns were, are we dealing with a genuine company as there are so many scams out there. So we decided to travel to the UK and spend a few weeks with family and drive down to see, find Uk property and visit a few of their properties. All our questions were answered and we bought 2 properties. Everything went just as find uk property had said, all there info that’s sent to you explains it all so well you just refer to that when you are not sure on anything, they also answered emails promptly and we are very happy with our purchase. What I liked about the whole experience was that it was all done with such ease with no surprises. Other things we liked about the purchase was, no worries about broken toilets etc. especially as we are not in the UK these problems would be taken care of by Find UK Property. Any concerns we had were dealt with promptly, our rental goes straight into our bank account, no stress, also the rental is guaranteed. I would recommend Find UK Property without reservation, and would consider buying another property with them. Overall the property purchase was a good experience.”

“I am a UK national and am working as a registered Nurse in a tertiary hospital in Riyadh. I have been in Saudi Arabia for more than a decade and am planning to return to UK next year. The interest rates paid by my bank dwindled from 3.5% over the years to 0% so I decided to generate income by buying an investment property. I selected the UK as the property market is stable and the UK laws are very transparent and I feel safe to invest in the UK. I was interested in affordable properties and with a company like Find UK to manage them for me while I am globe-trotting. I was initially concerned about having to pay my payment to Find UK and not my Solicitor as per normal property purchase transactions in UK. However, in the end everything worked out ok. When I visited I was well received. I was met at the Preston train station and taken by car to Find UK property office where I met a senior director. Then I was taken to meet a solicitor to clarify proof of identity. They took time and care to look out for certain property criteria I had mentioned. I was able to view several properties before making a decision. I was happy with my purchase and the service provided by Find UK is meeting my expectations and aims. I am very happy and wish I had bought properties from Find UK many years ago. 2 years later, I purchased another property and am hoping to buy one more next year. I like the service provided by the company the most. Always willing to help. I email Find UK senior staff for advice sometimes and they are always willing to assist. I also like these:- – Affordable properties. – Excellent management of properties. – Rent paid to my account on time. – I feel free to email Find UK staff for advice re tax returns etc. I would recommend Find UK Property and have already done so. Buying property that is well managed is a great investment.”

“I am computer programmer living and working in Abu Dhabi. I have a home in China with my wife and we will probably spend most of our time there when it comes time to retire. We are fortunate enough that we can save a reasonable amount of money. Leaving the money in the bank was not an option so I started looking at where I could safely invest. Being from the UK I have always known that buying property there was a safe option. As property prices were low we could also expect a reasonable amount of capital growth on our investment. We were looking for reasonably priced properties so that we could purchase fairly quickly and get our money working for us. As with any investment we had a few concerns. I did my research on Find UK Property to validate their claims of being members of the National Association of Estate Agents, The Property Ombudsman etc. How long they had been in business and if there were any complaints about them or the service that they provide. My confidence grew even more following my visit to their UK headquarters at Time Technology Park. They were punctual, professional and courteous. We chose the guaranteed option. As we wanted a fixed income that we could depend on. Each quarter the money just gets paid into the bank. Through the whole process everything was clearly explained and all given time frames were met. We wanted a hands off investment knowing that everything was being taken care of. We were so happy with the first property that we have subsequently purchased a second. I have recommended Find UK Property to a number of friends in Abu Dhabi – two of whom have purchased a property each.”  

“I am a Malaysian and graduated from a university in London, with a doctor of philosophy in nutritional therapy in 2013. I won a Malaysian research award in exploring a fruit’s therapeutic effect. This brought me here in London to do a nutritional research in relation to human health. I plan to be in London for at least 5 years. Investing in property is always my interest since young as i believe the return is probably better and more promising compare to other investment. I am attracted to the beautiful landscape in the countryside of UK although the weather sometimes may not be appealing to certain people. Since i have some savings, why not i make some investments in the UK. I was looking for a property with freehold status, 2 bed-room, with garden, parking space for my future staying or retirement time. It is an added advantage to rent this property for somebody to take care of the house and at the same time to earn some rent. The first concern in my mind was whether Find UK Property is a registered licensed company or property agent in the UK. Our concerns were fully addressed. We (my husband and I) were impressed for the hospitality that Find UK Property extended during our visit. They took all their efforts to show us as many properties as they could. They even suggested or thought in our shoes which made us felt very much appreciated. We are happy with their service and purchase. It was a little delay for the final document from the Land of Registry, which made me worried at that time. It was resolved at the end. Now, I would think, it was only a small matter as i was keeping in touch consistently for the progress of the purchase from Find UK Property. There were several things we liked:- – First, was the prompt response and right assuring answers whenever i have questions or doubts in the beginning of the purchase via email. – Second, the sincere hospitality that we experienced during our visit to the office. – Third, the smooth progress of the purchase until the final purchase stage with my name in the Land of Registry for the purchased property. – Fourth, the guarantee rent which has been banked into my account without fail for the past years. They are professional and really made us have no hassle for the property investment. Well done and great job to Find UK Property. We really appreciate your existence that benefits us.”
