Property Strategies
Albion Invest offers various property strategies, tailored to your personal situation.
Buy-to-Let
What is it?
You purchase an existing house or apartment that is immediately rentable, or rentable after minor refurbishment.
Features::
-
Focused on stable rental income and long-term capital growth.
-
Often single- or multi-family homes in popular residential areas.
-
Simple entry strategy, ideal for first-time purchases.
Returns:
Gross returns of 8–10%, with 3–5% annual capital growth in promising regions.
How Albion helps:
We select suitable properties, guide you through the purchase process, and, together with our local partners, manage rental and property administration.
Social housing
What is it?
You rent out your property long-term (7–10 years) to a social institution or housing association. The rent is often (partially) guaranteed by the government.
Features:
Predictable, long-term cash flow.
No vacancy risk, contractual guarantees.
Maintenance often handled (partially) by the tenant.
Returns:
Gross returns of 9–12%, with very passive management.
How Albion helps:
We select suitable properties, review contract terms, and assess the tenant’s creditworthiness. This ensures that the promised cash flow is realistic.
Buy–Refurb–Rent (BRRR)
What is it?
You purchase a property in need of repair, increase its value through renovation, and then rent it out. Often, refinancing follows to release capital.
Features:
-
Focused on value creation and rental income.
-
Requires more knowledge and patience than Buy-to-Let.
-
Attractive for affordable properties with renovation potential.
Returns:
Gross returns of 8–12%, plus value increase through renovation (sometimes 15–20% with refinancing).
How Albion helps:
We assess the renovation potential, hire contractors, and oversee project management. You benefit from our local network and due diligence.
Multi-Unit Blocks
What is it?
You purchase an entire building that is divided into multiple apartments, or can be converted for such division.
Features:
-
Economies of scale: multiple tenants in one property.
-
Higher purchase price, but greater diversification of rental income.
-
Attractive for experienced investors or larger portfolios.
Returns:
Gross returns of 9–14%, depending on location and tenant mix.
How Albion helps:
We assist with selection, due diligence, and financing. If needed, we coordinate renovations and rental management.
New construction
What is it?
You invest in new-build projects that are often delivered already rented out.
Features:
-
No maintenance in the first few years.
-
Ideal for passive investors.
-
Often in urban areas with strong rental demand.
Returns:
Gross returns of 6–7%, often with above-average value growth due to modern features and energy efficiency.
How Albion helps:
We select reliable developers, thoroughly screen projects, and guide you through the purchase process.
