Written by the company

Fabrik Property Group is a UK real estate investment and asset management firm, founded in 2014. We work with private investors, experienced property investors, family offices and institutional capital, providing access to carefully selected UK real estate opportunities and supporting investments throughout their lifecycle. Our work ranges from individual new-build and buy-to-let investments through to larger value-add, structured and joint-venture transactions, typically between £1 million and £100 million. On larger mandates, Fabrik may act as an operating and asset management partner alongside private and institutional capital. Since 2014, the Fabrik team has transacted on more than £400 million of property asset value and over 1,250 units, working with more than 350 clients across 40+ countries. Our approach is built around long-term relationships, disciplined investment analysis and active management. Depending on the mandate, our involvement can include opportunity origination, underwriting, acquisition, financing, asset management, investor reporting and exit. Our wider platform includes in-house RICS chartered surveying expertise, an internal finance function and a dedicated client services team. On our asset management mandates, investors receive regular financial and asset-level reporting, including quarterly management accounts, cash-flow information and asset performance updates. We believe alignment matters. Where appropriate, Fabrik's remuneration is linked to the performance and successful delivery of an investment, helping ensure our interests remain closely aligned with those of our clients and capital partners. Just as importantly, Fabrik remains a relationship-led business. Our founders and senior leadership continue to be directly involved with clients, investment decisions and the assets we manage. Fabrik Property Group operates through a number of specialist businesses, which focuses on new-build, off-plan and structured property opportunities, and Fabrik Asset Management, which oversees our growing asset and investment management activities. Property investment involves risk, including the potential loss of capital, and past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Fabrik does not provide regulated financial advice. www.fabrikpropertygroup.com

Matt Harper-Penman and Hollie Esaw

I worked with Matt Harper-Penman and Hollie Esaw from Fabrik on my purchase and they were great. They always made themselves available for a call to help answer any questions and make sure I understood the process. I would highly recommend them.

Our experience with Fabrik - A Breath of Fresh Air

Our experience with Fabrik has been a breath of fresh air, starting with Scott Edgecombe's thoughtful and methodical approach to understanding our needs and goals and continuing with his delivery of timely, relevant and comprehensive recommendations for buy-to-let purchases, not to mention his ongoing advice on market trends and how to position ourselves for success. Following our eventual purchase (now at 3 units), the rest of Fabrik's team did not let us down, with clear communication and conveyancing. We look forward to continuing the relationship with Scott and the team and can recommend them without hesitation to experienced and inexperienced investors alike.

Can’t go wrong working with Matt and Hollie

Matt has been excellent the whole way though. Very communicative and always available to answer any question or supply some more information. Took extra time and effort to make sure everything was clearly explained and detailed. Hollie has been great keeping me updated and both helped to follow up with the lawyers every step of the way to make sure things are as smooth as possible. Can’t really say a bad word and recommend them to anyone looking to invest in UK property, especially if you live overseas like I do.

a 101on how to build a property portfolio

I have dealt with IFA's and property promoters previously (I wont name and shame but Ive done 2 off plan property purchases elsewhere and 2 with Fabrik and more in the pipeline) but Fabrik is a breath of fresh air. It's not about getting you signed into any specific deal, it's about long term goals and finding properties that suit those goals. All firms do a fact find, but Matt at Fabrik goes so much further truly understanding us as clients, and the devil is in the detail and no detail is missed. I feel a better relationship with Matt after one year than other advisors (or more accurately sales guys) I have worked with for decades.

Now to the rest of Fabrik. The team and partner firms are equally impressive. Hollie is the person who makes sure all goes smoothly and she is excellent at her job. Lawyers cc Fabrik in on email correspondence and Hollie has often provided answers before I even got to ask the question. A quick phone call from Hollie every time there is some activity makes sure any delays are minimized. Its not often that you build a relationship with the admin staff (usually a central faceless unit based abroad somewhere) but Hollie has managed to do just that.

Also the info received to keep you informed on the new builds is so proactive and tangible. And I am comparing with other leading firms where I have direct experience. You can expect monthly updates from the developers by email as standard newsletters where the onus is on you to find information in between the marketing spin. But with Fabrik you get on site videos whatsapped to your mobile phone with the partners in a hard hat on site pointing out walls, windows, views etc. Its very comforting to actually see progress when you are abroad and buying off plan.

Fabrik also put me in touch with partner firms to create Ltd company structures, tax advice, buy to let mortgages and the process with these partners has been surprisingly efficient and easy too.

To summarise ....Im impressed. Its proactive not pushy. Relationship vs sales. Its what expats need vs what they get sold. Bravo Fabrik team.

Excellent Work from Shaz

Now and again you cross paths with somebody in the industry with a noticeably superior level of competence and aptitude for getting things done. For me this was Shaz Yaqoob, in helping organise a borrower and lenders needs in order to beat the stamp duty holiday deadline. Thank you from Liam, Head of Y3S Bridging and Commercial.

I come to know the Company since past six month through its Roscoe St. Liverpool project.
During this time I have mainly communicated and talked to Denial Hulburn, whom I have found very helpful for providing information on every stage of my enquiry.
On construction progress at Roscoe, I find the company approach to its planning, programme to completion and meeting its stage targets very satisfactory and professional. Based on company development at Roscoe St. I can recommend it as a good company to invest with.

As an international investor in the UK property market i was fortunate enough to deal with Mr. Shaz Yaqoob, I really gave him a hard time and he was always happy to answer my calls and queries... Weekends, day, night, etc.. Even when the deal wasn't going right he quickly gave me another option and all worked out and he followed up until the end of the deal and ironed out all the creases! Best sales man ever!
