What is Develop Together: Sell for More?
Most homeowners sell their property based on what it’s worth today. But what if your property could be worth considerably more with the right planning, extension, refurbishment or conversion?
That’s where we come in. Rather than buying your property from you, we partner with you to develop it. You remain the property owner while we take responsibility for assessing its potential, obtaining planning where required, arranging development finance, designing and managing the build and ultimately selling the finished property.
Your property is independently valued at the outset and we agree a minimum amount you will receive before anything begins.
Once the development is complete and the property – or newly created properties – are sold, the agreed development, finance and selling costs are deducted and the additional profit we have created together is shared 50/50.
It’s a simple idea: Your property + our expertise = more potential value for both of us.

Why sell when you could Develop Together?
1. Unlock more value
A conventional sale gives you the property’s value today. Develop Together gives you the opportunity to participate in the value that could be created through refurbishment, extension, reconfiguration or conversion.
2. No cash investment
You don’t fund the renovation or development works yourself. We arrange the development funding required to deliver the project.
3. We manage everything
Planning. Architects. Design. Finance. Contractors. Construction. Building Control. Marketing. Estate agents. Sales.
4. You remain the owner
Unlike a conventional sale to a developer, you don’t sell your property to us at the beginning of the process. You remain the owner while we work together to maximise its value.
5. A minimum agreed value
Before proceeding, your property is independently valued and we agree the minimum amount you will receive from the project.
6. Share the upside
After the agreed development, finance and selling costs have been deducted from the eventual sales proceeds, the additional profit generated by the development is shared 50/50.
That means our interests are aligned: the better the outcome we create, the better the outcome for both of us.
What could we do with your property?
Every property is different. Sometimes the best opportunity is simply to take a tired house and turn it into an exceptional family home. Sometimes there’s potential to extend into the loft, side return or rear of the property. And sometimes planning allows us to reconfigure or convert a building into multiple high-quality homes.
Our job is to establish which route makes the most sense – before you commit to anything.
We’ll assess the property, local planning considerations, likely development costs and realistic end values to determine whether there is enough additional value for a partnership to work for both of us.
What’s in it for us?
We’re property developers. Normally, before we can create any value, we first have to buy the property. That means committing substantial capital to the purchase before planning or building work has even begun. Develop Together removes that initial purchase from the equation.
Instead, you bring the property to the partnership and we bring our development experience, professional team and the time required to manage the project from beginning to end. In return, rather than buying your property and keeping all of the development profit ourselves, we share the additional profit with you.
You have the opportunity to receive more for your property. We can undertake a development without purchasing the property first.
We both benefit from creating as much value as possible.
And we think that’s a much better way of doing things.
How does it work in practice?
1. Let’s talk
If you’re considering selling your property – or it’s already on the market – get in touch.
There’s no commitment. We simply need some basic information about the property to make an initial assessment.
2. We explore the potential
We’ll look at what could realistically be achieved.
That might be a complete refurbishment, an extension, a substantial reconfiguration or, where appropriate, a planning application to create multiple homes.
We’ll consider planning, build costs and likely finished values to establish whether Develop Together makes financial sense.
3. Independent valuation
An independent surveyor establishes the property’s current market value.
We then agree the minimum amount you will receive if we proceed together.
4. Agree the numbers
Before starting, we’ll prepare a detailed development appraisal showing the proposed works, anticipated development and finance costs, expected sales values and projected profit.
Everything is agreed before the development begins.
5. Planning & Design
We take care of the professional team and, where required, manage the planning process.
Our aim is simple: establish the best viable scheme for the property and maximise its potential value.
6. We build it
Once everything is in place, our development team manages the entire construction process.
You don’t need to find contractors, manage trades, oversee budgets or deal with the day-to-day realities of a building project.
That’s our job
7. We sell
Once completed, we manage the marketing and sale of the finished property or properties.
Our involvement doesn’t stop when the builders leave site – we take the development right through to completion of the eventual sales.
8. We share the result
Once the final properties have sold, the actual agreed development, finance and selling costs are calculated.
You receive the agreed value attributable to your property and the additional development profit is then shared 50/50.
You provided the opportunity.
We delivered the development.
And we share the value we’ve created together.
Could your property be suitable?
Develop Together won’t work for every property. We’re principally looking for period properties across South and South East London where we believe our development experience can create meaningful additional value.
Your property doesn’t necessarily need to be in poor condition. What matters is whether there is untapped potential – through refurbishment, extension, reconfiguration, planning or conversion.
If you’re considering selling and would like to find out what your property could become before accepting an offer for what it is today, we’d love to hear from you.
