How John became a letting agency owner in just 49 days with Sourced Living

Just 49 days later, he completed on the purchase of an established letting agency, fully funded by Sourced.

Through Sourced Living’s Assisted Acquisitions Programme, John was able to step into a real trading business with existing income, landlords, tenants, systems and a team already in place.

The result

John’s acquisition included:

• £450,000 purchase price

• 262 managed units

• £293,000 annual turnover

• 100% funded by Sourced

Rather than spending years building a lettings portfolio from scratch, John became the owner of an existing agency with infrastructure already in place.

A faster route into lettings business ownership

For many people, starting a lettings business can feel like a long road.

You need to build trust with landlords, win instructions, find tenants, manage compliance, set up systems and create a reliable income stream.

Sourced Living gives Partners the training, technology, brand and support to do that. But through the Assisted Acquisitions Programme, Partners may also have the opportunity to acquire existing lettings businesses or portfolios.

That means they can step into a business that is already operating, instead of having to build everything from day one.

Why Sourced goes all in

At Sourced, we do not succeed unless our Partners succeed.

That is why we support Partners through the process from start to finish, including identifying suitable opportunities, reviewing the business, supporting due diligence, helping with funding and continuing to guide Partners after completion.

It is not about handing over a brand and leaving people to figure it out alone.

It is about giving ambitious people a faster, supported route into lettings business ownership.
