Quick answer
What is off-market property sourcing and how does it work?
Off-market sourcing buys property that is never listed publicly, through direct relationships with owners, agents, receivers and asset managers. You give a written mandate — budget, location, asset type and yield target — and receive underwritten deals with comparables, costings and a recommended offer before anyone else sees them.
- Mandate first
- A written brief: budget, area, asset type, target return and timeline.
- Sources
- Direct-to-vendor, agent relationships, LPA receivers, distressed portfolios.
- Underwriting
- Comparables, rental evidence, refurbishment and finance modelled before offer.
- Fees
- Retained search plus a completion fee, agreed before any deal is shown.
