Lettings agency with a freehold city-centre office in Cardiff

About this business

A lettings and property management agency in Cardiff city centre, looking after flats and shared houses for private landlords, many of them let to students and young professionals. Three staff work from the freehold office, which is included in the sale. The agency opened in 2023 and could move premises. Turnover has fallen from £229k to £210k and margins are thin, with adjusted EBITDA of £11k and net profit of £9k. The asking price is £50k, well below net assets, which suits a buyer who could merge the management work into an existing agency.

Key investment highlights

  • Freehold city-centre office included
  • Asking price below net assets
  • Team of three
  • Flats and shared houses under management

Reason for sale

The owner is selling to concentrate on her own property portfolio.
