Bringing a Vacant Property Back into Productive Use

Project Overview

This property remained vacant from 2018 following a partially completed and substandard refurbishment programme. Blue Pennant agreed a delayed-completion acquisition structure to provide sufficient time to stabilise and reposition the asset.

The Challenge

The property presented prolonged vacancy, incomplete works, compliance challenges, planning requirements and significant refurbishment needs.

Our Approach

Blue Pennant worked alongside planning consultants and professional advisers to create a strategy focused on compliance, improvement and long-term sustainability.

The acquisition structure provided the time required to resolve planning matters and undertake a full redevelopment programme.

Improvement Strategy

  • Certificate of Lawful Development application
  • Full refurbishment
  • Compliance restructuring
  • Operational improvement
  • HMO repositioning

Outcome

The property is being transformed from a five-bedroom HMO into a high-specification eight-bedroom professional HMO.
