Welcome to Chard Robinson Property Investment

Company Profile

Chard Robinson Property Investment provides a Cambridge-based residential property acquisition, buy-to-let and portfolio strategy service for private individuals and consortiums, as well as companies and investment funds.

Over the last decade, the property investment market in Cambridge (and the UK in general) boomed, fuelled by the launch of buy-to-let as an investment vehicle in 1996, and amendments made two years later to the Housing Act regarding landlords and tenants. During this time, the Chard Robinson Property Investment partners dedicated their time to interpreting these and other more subtle changes in Cambridge buy-to-let market trends in order  to maintain an acquisition strategy focussed specifically on both yield and capital growth. The nature and business of property management, and in particular professional property managers, has also changed from simply letting property for clients to actively advising on and negotiating the acquisition of property for clients.

The rise and fall of values and short-, medium- or long-term view of the UK property investment market is often the hot topic at dinner parties and the subject of constant media coverage; some companies offer property investment courses, whilst property buying clubs offer ‘no money down’ investment proposals, claiming ‘instant equity’. Rest assured that Chard Robinson Property Investment has established an enviable reputation for an ethical approach to property investment and buy-to-let in Cambridge, with a great emphasis on attention to detail by taking the time to understand the needs of its clients. We are recognised as one of the leading client focused property acquisition teams in the region and engage over 50% of new clients by way of referral. An independent organisation with a local focus and in-depth knowledge, we acquire quality properties in sought-after residential areas throughout Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and the booming ‘M11 Corridor’, incorporating Stansted Airport, Essex and Hertfordshire. In recent years, particular emphasis been placed on central Cambridge, the town of Newmarket, as well as the EU funded regeneration of the Ipswich docks.

Cambridge residential property acquisitions and buy-to-let opportunities range from uninhabitable single dwellings requiring refurbishment for one client to bulk off-plan purchases for multiple clients. This formula, together with Chard Robinson Property Investment's personal approach, has proven very successful. And by working closely with establioshed partners, Chard Robinson Property Investment is able to acquire and manage property on a long-term basis, providing all clients with a complete solution and peace of mind.
