"I was first attracted to the Hometrader Group by their 25% discount and deposit paid offers – but this, as I was to find out, only tells part of the story. I decided to try them out with one property in Ash Street, Blackpool. Everything seemed to click into place and the process was really smooth through mortgage advice, purchase and refurbishment – all the way to completion.
Now that Mark from the Hometrader Group knew me and understood my requirements, he soon came back with another property which fit perfectly my situation: the property was in a good residential area with schools and amenities close by. This time, once they had brought the property up to my (and their) exacting standards, they found a tenant. Unfortunately the tenant had to move out shortly after, but – and this is the real advantage of the Hometrader Group – within 4 days they had got me a replacement!
I would not hesitate to recommend Brendan, Mark and the Hometrader Group team. There is no substitute for experience and Brendan is a genuine guy. I trust his guidance. Basically: if its right go for it – if it’s not Brendan will tell me its not!”

"Working with Brendan is amazing! The insight he had to know what was right for me was eye opening to say the least! When you are starting, like I was, to build a portfolio of houses it is really important to not overstretch and the guidance I had in making that decision has stood me in good stead. Brendan has been more like a mentor to me than an investment adviser! |
I now understand the importance of property tailored to my needs. Membership of the Hometrader Group Privilege Club is the soundest investment I have made".
Greig’s first property investment was a ‘no money in deal’ whereby Hometrader Group paid the deposit and legal fees, secured the purchase for £100,000 and Greig’s mortgage for £75,000 – Greig made £25,000 equity. Also they found a tenant to pay £475 monthly rental (against Greig’s £320 monthly mortgage).

"My husband and I were really very cautious and doubtful about Hometrader Group – we thought that estate agents should be doing this! After the first meeting with Brendan, though, we realised that he knew what he was talking about. He quickly put us at ease by straight talking sense.
The advice and knowledge he gave us has proven to be fruitful, not just generally about property, but also with a specific deal in Sandy Lane, Liverpool. We now are looking to expand our portfolio and know that Hometrader Group will be our first port of call."

"I had a little bit of money – not much – that I had been advised to use as a top up for my pension. I looked at the returns on this and at that time quite by chance ran into Mark from Hometrader Group plc. He carefully explained the benefits of the Privilege Club to me and I remember telling him it sounded too good to be true! |
In the end I took the plunge and, well what can I say: they really did look after me! Mark kept me in touch with dealings constantly and I never felt out of control. I am now the proud owner of three rental properties and not to mention considerable equity!"
