PROJECT 1
Pure Luxury Living is a startup business providing high standard serviced accommodation in Kent and London. Capital for furnishing these apartments to the standard they wanted was always going to be an issue with the growth for the business that was planned. That’s where Landlord Smart has really helped them grow dramatically in the last few months with 7+ projects being financed.
WHAT PURE LUXURY LIVING THINK ABOUT LANDLORD SMART:
“Being introduced to Landlord Smart was a real lifeline as I was struggling to raise upfront capital. They have made it very easy to get finance and we’ve now used them several times. Our cashflow business has reaped the rewards from the smaller incremental payments, not to mention the tax benefits!”

PROJECT 2
Andi and Lloyd from White Box Property Solutions Ltd specialise in build to let projects and large scale conversions. This particular project was a 17 bed luxury HMO conversion in a pub. The lease finance paid for the furniture, white goods and also funded the three shared kitchens in this project.
WHAT WHITE BOX PROPERTY SOLUTIONS THINK ABOUT LANDLORD SMART:
“Landlord Smart have helped keep £13,000 in our business AND we were reimbursed £16,000 for purchases that had already been made. Using Landlord Smart is definitely the best way to finance furnishing our projects because it’s tax efficient and we can now use that cash to grow our business.”
