Property managers
that solve problems

My husband and I are long term serial investors in both property and equities. As such we have a great deal of experience (both good and bad!) and have learned a huge amount about what makes a good investable proposition. We therefore feel well placed to say that our investment experience with James has been a genuine pleasure.

James has all the qualities one would look for when looking for a solid and confident investment proposal. James is a person of great integrity and honesty who has a sound understanding of the market and different property investing strategies. His enthusiasm for his business combined with a healthy appreciation of calculated risk is invaluable, but above all he is a grafter who is willing to put in the effort and go the extra mile to achieve his goals. These are winning attributes which make it an easy decision to invest with James and we are happy to wholeheartedly recommend him.

We have worked with James over the past 2 years during the expansion of his property portfolio. This has been on larger projects; such as a garage conversion and HMO remodelling and also smaller jobs; such as fixing a leaky toilet or damaged plaster.

In terms of a working relationship, James is a great customer; paying on time (often on the same day as invoiced, which is rare!), friendly and fair when it comes to discussing additional, necessary work. I would also add that from my perspective, he appears to be a great landlord. When an issue is raised by one of his tenants, he’ll call or message us straight away and once we’ve quoted the work and agreed a price he doesn’t hesitate in getting it completed. I can see that he really tries to give his tenants the best possible service and makes sure everything is in full working order so they have a happy home.

I wish James the best success during his upwards journey as a landlord and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to engage in a business or landlord/tenant relationship with him!

Coming in as a masters student at Cranfield University, I was in need of a serene, neat, well-managed, affordable and polished living arrangement, to help balance out my limited time away from my academic pursuit at the university. It also had to be of close proximity to the university in addition to having a responsive landlord with whom I could establish a professional and cordial relationship.

I found all these and more at Gadsden close, Cranfield, and in it’s very attentive landlord, James Fokkens. If it is that I were ever in doubt as to the quality of service I got, with the benefit of hindsight, I can say categorically, every one of my expectations were surpassed, with many thanks to James and my very accommodating co-housemates. I fully endorse same property to any future tenant looking to take advantage of similar opportunity.
