Investment mandate

The mandate comes first.
The property comes second.

Before sourcing begins, we define what a successful investment must deliver and what it must not expose you to.

A clear mandate gives every opportunity the same commercial test. It reduces distraction, makes recommendations easier to compare and creates an agreed basis for approving, rejecting or restructuring a route.

Explore each pillar to understand how the mandate protects investment discipline.

01

Return objective

Income, capital growth, equity creation or a balanced combination, expressed against a realistic hold and exit period.

  • Target income or profit profile
  • Preferred hold duration
  • Refinance or sale priorities
02

Capital profile

Available equity, finance appetite, contingency provision and the amount of capital that can remain committed.

  • Acquisition and works budget
  • Leverage parameters
  • Liquidity and contingency needs
03

Risk boundaries

Planning exposure, delivery complexity, operational intensity and the level of downside protection required.

  • Planning and licensing tolerance
  • Build complexity limits
  • Fallback route requirements
04

Decision framework

Who approves each stage, what evidence is required and which commercial thresholds must be met before commitment.

  • Approval authority
  • Reporting preferences
  • Decision and stop points

Commercial screening

Most opportunities should not reach your desk.

Primehold's indicative 20-30:1 screening ratio is designed to concentrate client attention on opportunities that show credible alignment with the agreed mandate.

20-30 Opportunities reviewed
3-5 Commercially modelled
1 Client-ready recommendation
Purchase basis Local demand Planning potential Buildability Finance viability Cost sensitivity Income resilience Exit depth

The ratio is an operating target, not a guarantee. The number and depth of opportunities will vary by mandate, location and market conditions.

Illustrative strategy options

Different strategies.
One disciplined process.

We shape the route around the opportunity, cash profile and investor mandate, while the same commercial screening sits behind every recommendation.

Select a strategy for its investment drivers, principal risks and decision criteria.

01

Commercial-first screening

Every opportunity is tested against financial and market criteria before it reaches you.

02

Transparent governance

Strategic calls, portal access and financial visibility across the lifecycle.

03

One accountable lead

One relationship and one accountable person from acquisition to exit.

04

Downside planning

Alternative routes are assessed early so commitment follows clear commercial logic.

Initial commitment £1,000

The retainer kickstarts the process and demonstrates serious intent from both sides. It becomes payable only after scope and engagement terms are agreed in writing.

Equity-created fee 10%

Fee based on equity created, as described in the investor brochure and subject to the agreed engagement terms.

Third-party appointments

Legal, tax, finance, valuation, planning, design, construction and other specialist services are scoped and agreed separately with the relevant provider.

Important distinction

Primehold coordinates the investment process. It does not replace independent regulated, legal, tax or other professional advice where required.

Client questions

Clarity before capital is committed.

Clear answers on our role, approvals, investment options and risk controls.

We coordinate sourcing, screening, planning, finance, delivery, reporting and exit planning as one joined-up process.

Yes. You keep decision authority while Primehold manages the coordination burden and presents recommendations.

Luxury HMO conversions, family refurbishments, BRR or rental-hold strategies, planning-led value add and resale routes.

No. Planning is never guaranteed. We assess planning potential and structure fallback options where possible.

A well-designed HMO can create stronger rental income, higher yield and long-term cashflow, subject to demand and compliance.

Where suitable, a family-home refurbishment, resale route or alternative hold strategy can provide downside protection.

Figures remain illustrative until due diligence, finance review, cost review, planning review and market appraisal are complete.

Through milestone updates, commercial decision points, cost visibility, risk tracking and concise client reporting.

No. Primehold can coordinate finance packaging and specialist lender engagement, but lending remains subject to eligibility, valuation, underwriting, legal review and the lender's final approval.

The client, or an agreed client-controlled ownership vehicle, enters the acquisition and project contracts after taking the appropriate legal and tax advice. The structure must be confirmed for each client and transaction.

Appointments can be supported through scope definition, tendering, quotation review, capability checks and commercial comparison. The client approves material appointments and contract commitments.

Through defined scope, tender review, contingency, committed-cost tracking, approval controls and change reporting. These controls reduce uncertainty but cannot eliminate construction or market risk.

Yes. The coordination model can incorporate a client's existing solicitor, accountant, broker, architect, surveyor or other trusted advisers where roles and responsibilities are clearly agreed.

Timing depends on acquisition, planning, finance, design, procurement, build complexity and the chosen exit. A project-specific programme is developed and updated as evidence and approvals become available.

Primehold provides investment coordination and commercial project management. Regulated finance, legal, tax, valuation and other specialist advice should be provided by appropriately qualified independent professionals.

The initial retainer is the commitment required to kickstart the process. It activates mandate definition, initial commercial review, strategy alignment and mobilisation. The precise scope, VAT treatment, cancellation position and whether any amount is credited against later fees are confirmed in the written engagement before payment.
