Approach & Objectives
niche market focus
River short stay and HMO focus is placed on locations with niche-market potential such as the staycation sector, large-scale general hospitals, tech campuses, universities, and transient professional workers. Integral to our marketing approach River seeks to drive high-level returns by way of innovative design choices and solid commercial decision-making.
Investment Ethos
a focus on consistency and credibility
When required highly experienced planning specialists assist our commercial design team in applying deep analysis to each project. In order to maximise the commercial value, we explore all additional internal and external space-yielding opportunities, including lofts, conservatories and purpose-built external living areas, all of which can add significant asset value. River’s commercial objectives blend above-average rental yields with mid to longer-term asset growth. Our fundamental approach is to drive early-stage positive cash flow and strong asset enhancement over a three-year term. Additionally, River will seek to develop a low-key, but creative brand-led approach to our portfolio development which can assist the potential for additional goodwill-led value.

Target Markets
emerging sectors + a proven core approach
River focus on locations within which we have a development sourcing network and deep market sector understanding. Having developed highly effective relationships with many sources within the South East Essex marketplace we pride our future successes on a combination of trust and creativity allowing a perpetuation of trade relationships to flourish and continue to support our expansion inspirations.
Short Stay
Historically a lower-level sector, HMO has transformed into a thriving market, affording mainstream tenants the benefit of higher-quality domestic facilities than they might hope to attain independently. Driven by a growing desire for a cost-effective communal lifestyle experience, HMO is now one of the UK’s fast-evolving residential property investment sectors.

Historically a lower-level sector, HMO has transformed into a thriving market, affording mainstream tenants the benefit of higher-quality domestic facilities than they might hope to attain independently. Driven by a growing post-pandemic desire for a cost-effective communal lifestyle experience, HMO is now one of the UK’s fast-evolving residential property investment sectors.
Guest House
The post-pandemic fall-out has rendered many owner-manged establishments low on morale, burdened by increased costs and significantly greater workloads. As such, opportunities to acquire sound commercial projects now exist. River will seek to vigorously appraise all opportunities whether to purchase or acquire via Purcahe Options and Commercial Lease ownership.
Portfolio Acquisition
Whether supported by a distressed or opportunistic market, I am to consider expansion via carefully selected larger-scale opportunities that drive economies of scale and potentially higher yields on assets. River’s ability to remain liquid and nimble around any such investments is a crucial aspect of our commercial plans.
