Friends/colleagues have told me having experienced the investment market just how frustrating it can be but I wanted to see for myself, and having done this now for several months they are not entirely wrong.
I have found myself on more than one occasion getting quite carried away with high expectations, only to come crashing down again a few days later. Being 'close' to securing a deal means little, and on so many occasions I have come that close to agreeing some major business-BUT be it one reason or another things have not gelled together.
In the investment market its all about 'delivery' and on so many occasions failure to deliver has resulted in unhappy clients who quite quickly lose faith in your ability and inevitably go elsewhere.
I have had several examples of this in the last few weeks including a major multi million pound land deal which had it happened would have set my company up nicely-but failure to deliver plus an abundance of unnecessary red tape prevented this from happening.
More and more investment deals are being received including some excellent opportunities in the Kensington and Knightsbridge areas like an off market three bedroom two bathroom 3rd floor purpose built apartment in a secure private road in the heart of the area and where offers over £2m are being considered, or a portfolio of four luxury 2 and 3 bedroom apartments offers in excess of £4.4m.
We have also received a very attractive one bedroom ground floor flat in Camden, London, few minutes from the station for under £300k.
Plenty of land enquiries are being received with or without planning and in the London, Sussex and Surrey areas for multiple residential developments.
I visited an amazing Penthouse apartment in South Kensington recently just like something out of an 'Ideal home' magazine and featuring a 360 degree roof terrace with magnificent views over London, and all for less than £5m.
An interesting opportunity has become available near my home in West Sussex, its a badly fire damaged 4/5 bedroom detached house in a great semi rural location and offering someone an ideal opportunity to redevelop-offers over £200k are invited. In the same area we have an excellent buy to let opportunity coming up for marketing in the region of £150k.
