From Rundown to Remarkable... this is how to refurb... Early last week I touched base again with Ben Pearson of PRISTINE BUILDING SOLUTIONS LTD and I was genuinely impressed with what he's achieved. Converting an empty, unsafe 2-bed terrace into a 3-bed EcoHome with a B-rated EPC (87) certificate in less than 6 months... The Numbers: - Purchase Price: £67,000 (March 2025) - Renovation Investment: £72,000 - October Valuation: £175,000 (could have been more!) - Let within 1 WEEK at £995 PCM - EPC Rating: B (that's exceptional from a 1900 Victorian) Ben took a 2-bed end-of-terrace that most would've walked away from and transformed it into a 3-bed eco home that's now generating serious returns. What Sets This Apart: He didn't cut corners. Heat pump underfloor heating on BOTH floors. Solar panels generating income back to the National Grid on top of the rental yield. Who doesnt like the idea of earning an extra month's rent every year in energy sell-back? Yes, he spent a premium on the renovation - but that's what quality work looks like. That's what gets you an EPC A rating. That's what gets you £995 PCM tenants queuing up within a week. The Result: A property that's future-proofed, tenant-ready, and already delivering strong returns while contributing positively to the environment. Above it all, Ben is a lovely guy, family man and juggled all of this whilst having several very big projects on simultaneously. We can't wait to work with Ben in finding his next investment. When you find people who share your commitment to quality and sustainable property development, you hold onto them. Quality attracts quality. Every time. #PropertyDevelopment #SustainableHomes #PropertyInvestment #Yorkshire #Derbyshire #RealEstate #EcoHomes #PropertyRenovation #BuildingPartners
