Why is there a 100,000 short fall in housing development?For years the number of people entering the building industry has reduced, especially apprentices, so the necessary skills are not available locally.
The humble ‘brick’ is in short supply, the house builders material of choice, and it is hardly the best thermal material!
It is widely denied and studies by the Housebuilding Federation try to prove this is not a factor, but it remains a fact that the biggest home builders own a great deal of undeveloped land. The management have a duty to earn the biggest possible profit from their land stock which limits their options.
The large house builders say that this is the reason they cannot develop much of the land they hold, but the problem stems from the fact that the developments are so vast and complex they literally change the entire landscape and local property economy.
It has become more and more difficult to become a home-owner or acquire investment property, we have developed numerous ways to aid people to begin this journey to property ownership.
This is a very useful technique where people do not have a deposit required by the mortgage companies, they can pay a rent to occupy the property and an extra monthly payment that builds up a pre-paid deposit. The term of the Rent to Buy is determined by the amount they pay towards the deposit and the amount of deposit required. Various agreements can be reached as to the equity increase during the Rent to Buy period but the one of the key benefits of this arrangement is the tenant treats the property as their own from the start of the agreement, it is also possible to charge “Key Money” at the start of the term.
The biggest issue for UK students today is the big debt they build up for their education, we have created a scheme where during their stay in our properties they build up a share of the equity in the property they occupy. They can offset their student loan against the equity at the end of the term, or, acquire the property at a discount.
When funds are tight and you cannot afford to buy a whole property we have created an option where you can own a part of a property and receive a pro-rata profit share or revenue income. This ownership percentage gets you into the property industry and gives you assets you can trade and pass on to your relatives just like wholly owned properties.
There are also agreements we can reach where you buy part of a property and we own the rest, we would jointly manage and profit from the asset.
Britain has a housing crisis – we aim with your help to be part of the solution, the old outdated methods have now failed and are contributing to the problem – we have the solution by building homes in factories, standardisation and mass-production of components and Steel Modular Building Units.
Types of Buildings We Develop, Refurbish, Convert & Manage;
We specialise in building housing using offsite steel modular construction, this means we can deliver higher quality dwellings faster and cheaper than using traditional brick and block methods.
Our steel frame construction is stronger and safer than all timber frame homes, they are also 100% recyclable.
We have available a wide range of student accommodations that can be assembled into various combinations, from single self-contained studios, One & Two Bed flats to halls of residence with shared common areas.
Our student accommodation can be established as permanent or temporary structures that can be refurbished and assembled elsewhere.
Our hotel room modules can be fitted out to any specification or quality, we can quickly build hotels of virtually any size around common areas with multiple features and facilities. Everything is built under controlled factory conditions ensuring a consistent quality and accuracy.
All of our buildings can be constructed & assembled on sites that are only available for a limited time, our modular design allows complete flexibility in the amount of time the building is in place and means that construction and removal can be completed in a very short time.
Carl Henry Property is a modern, creative and pioneering UK company providing an innovative method of house construction, which saves time on-site and allows you to have “more house for your money”.
We design, manufacture and erect modular housing solutions in-house on commission, in a matter of weeks your house will be delivered to your site, which we can prepare if desired, using the ‘just in time’ methodology, it will then be made wind and watertight in a matter of days and completed to a very high standard of finish in a matter of a few weeks allowing you to go from design to ‘turnkey’ in less than half the time and more cost effectively than traditional methods of construction.
Once you have settled on your design, either from the comprehensive choice in our brochure or with one of our highly experienced designers who will be happy to bring your own ideas alive, and all of the required planning permissions are granted and timescales are agreed, the design is transferred to our production facility. Once your chosen site is prepared with foundations, services etc. we transport each module to site in a carefully worked out sequence and construction begins.

Below I have given you a brief overview of a few example deals completed since 1980 to show the range of property transactions & property related activities I have concluded successfully during my career. For more detail click on the eBrochure Image to download a PDF document.
Three flats were purchased in each required redecoration & a little updating. The purchase prices ranged from £12k up to £16k, costs were about £2k per flat. Each flat was initially rented out but all were sold eventually.
This was a purchase of a 4 bedroom house with attic. The house required extensive redecoration, some works to the electrical system & clearing of overgrown gardens to the front & rear. It was purchased for £24k costs came to around £3,000 & sold within 6 months for a good profit to an end user.
I purchased a two bed flat conversion on the 3rd floor of this four floor building, it was bought for £94k and required redecorating following which it achieved a valuation of £125k. I also purchased the ground floor flat for £100k and carried out the usual redecorations which achieved a valuation of £135k.
I met a property trader who had taken over a development of 22 flats from a development company that ran out of money. The trader was finishing off the development. His forte was in the acquisition and finance so I took over dealing with all aspects of the setting up of an off shore company, NHBC registration for the flats, managing final fixes on the flats, selling the flats to other traders, and becoming the buildings managing & letting agent during the initial years. I earned various fees for the consultancy work, commission on the finance & sales and a percentage of the management & letting fees.
I purchased the freehold interest and underlease of this building which comprised of 8 luxury flats, owners included the AL Sabahs of Kuwait, a 'Prince' from Quatar, Brian May (Queen Guitarist) & Evergreen shippers who owned 4 flats. I made money by successfully collecting outstanding ground rents & service charges (which were substantial), by acquiring the Headlease which gave me more control and selling the porters flat, this created a healthy income during the course of 12 months
This was the acquisition of a 'tertiary' building in a slightly rundown area of London, it comprised of 3 retail units on the ground floor (two shops & an old building society office in the middle), offices on the first floor & two flats on the second floor, it also had a small cottage to the rear of the building adjacent to a small car park. The purchase price was £450k, I sold the cottage for more than the Deposit; I sold the hairdresser a 999 year lease on his shop, I let the large central retail unit to a firm of solicitors which gave me a strong tenant paying about £30k a year in the largest unit, I settled an outstanding dispute with the video shop by agreeing a lump sum payment against rent arrears & established regular payments, the first floor offices were also occupied by solicitors. The Flats were redecorated & let out. Eventually the solicitor tenants on the ground floor decided that they would prefer to own the freehold of the building rather than rent so I sold out at an additional profit all within 12 months work.
I created a managing agents business where eventually I was managing 19 blocks of flats around central London, my office was in a building on the corner of North Audley Street & Grosvenor Square Mayfair.
I acquired a development site which was on Grosvenor Rd Pimlico from the Australian bank Westpac. I negotiated to purchase the site for £2.25 million. Once the planning permission was granted & section 106 conditions were met the site was sold to Berkeley Homes for £4.5 million who developed 64 flats on the site.
POINTWEST LONDONI became involved in a mixture of deals, one of which was the acquisition of Point West in Kensington a block of 400 flats & a supermarket, this was a long & complicated deal which lasted about 5 years during which time I was involved in many smaller transactions.
I identified an opportunity on the Medway towns, freehold houses were undervalued in the area and the stock was quite run down. Terraced houses could be purchased for about £45k to £50k. So I bought and refurbished a number of houses in Chatham & Gillingham, I sold all of them all for healthy profits.
I decided to become a financier providing 'enabling finance' to a developer who wanted to develop 36 flats, it was complicated because the property was controlled by a receiver & could not be financed traditionally, through a combination of contracts & securities I negotiated with the developer I was able to make a loan which enabled the the deal to proceed & become "fundable".
I acquired a block of offices which were half empty for £1 million, over a few months I found tenants and resold the property as a high yielding investment.

Carl Henry Property is focused on the United Kingdom residential property industry; Carl Henry Real Estate is involved in housing anywhere else in the world.
The other key to this is the production of ‘affordable’ housing, I have been working for over 2 years in discovering ways to provide the appropriate housing but faster and at a lower price but equal or higher quality.
We have been mainly researching into the numerous ways to provide housing using modern methods of Offsite Modular Construction; which is building the housing on production lines inside factories, then delivering the finished modules to the final development site.
I have created this website and social pages to start giving you key information about the industry so you can do it for yourself.
If you are low on investment capital you will have to start with a ‘Trading Model’. There are only 3 ways to make money from Real Estate Property trading; Buy at a low price, add value or wait until the price goes up – there is also the opportunity of renting out the property at a profit, while you control it, which is the ‘investment’ or ‘revenue’ model rather than ‘Trading’. There are ways to derive revenues from property with little initial capital which I will also cover.
So if any of this is of interest to you and you want to know more about ‘The Easy Way To Win the Game of Life’! put your name & email in the form and I’ll start sending you info’ on how to get going!
