HMO’s & Flat Conversion Project Management Are you an investor or landlord looking to maximise the return on your properties? SpeciBuild has years of experience managing projects on behalf of clients. Specialising in HMO and flat conversions for high-end professional lettings, we provide a stress-free service. We are NOT the contractor — our objective is to achieve the best value and quality for our clients.
Services we provide
• Initial feasibility surveys to assist with the early number-crunching and ensure a project can achieve the desired returns. Our process involves low-level take-offs rather than the commonly used price-per-m² route, which is generally high risk.
Design services to maximise the use of the available space and, in turn, maximise rental values. • Production of full tender packs to enable accurate, detailed pricing by relevant contractors.
• Value engineering to enable refurbishment works to align with budgets.
• Hands-on project management with weekly updates and formal monthly progress reports.
• Full financial management with an open-book policy for all costs.
• Management of all furnishing and finishes.
• Lettings compliance and handover.
