Our approach / LEEDS
Sourcing fees and acquisition process
Know the agreement before paying.
THE INVESTOR PERSPECTIVE
Start with the facts, not the headline.
Fees depend on the mandate and actual services agreed. We do not publish a single universal success fee because transaction complexity, scope and stages can differ.
Who this is for
Capital-ready buyers and investors preparing a defined Leeds acquisition mandate, including those comparing strategies or operating remotely.
Next decision: Are the strategy, budget, finance and constraints specific enough to start a meaningful search?
WHAT WE TEST
The practical due-diligence framework.
A proposal is useful only when its assumptions can be checked. These are the first issues to resolve before individual property advice.
First conversation: confirm investor fit, mandate and funding position.

WHAT CAN GO WRONG
Questions that could change the decision.
- No obligation arises from an initial enquiry.
- Ask for all engagement terms in writing before transferring funds.
- Do not assume the sourcer is acting as your regulated financial adviser.
