WELCOME TO EIGHT PROPERTY GROUP
Located in Blackpool and the Fylde Coast, we specialise in property investment, development and portfolio building across the North West of England.
We work with Investors that are actively seeking to diversify their income streams and deploy capital into projects which will see them gain a significantly higher rate of return than they could hope to achieve via the traditional medium of leaving it in the bank.
We have a true passion for creating WIN/WIN situations for investors and local communities by creating beautiful homes and brighter futures!
We do this via 2 key services:
1) A bespoke portfolio building service supporting Investors to build and scale a portfolio focused on creating long-term, generational wealth through capital appreciation. This can be 100% hands-off, if preferred.
2) Working with Angel Investors on our own projects. In return, we offer fixed returns, over and above those typically offered by banks. Ideal for people looking to build wealth without owning property.
How we do it?
We specialise in acquiring unloved and unused properties in poor condition and adding value through refurbishment to turn tired, run down properties into beautiful homes for future generations.
This strategy aligns with our company values of not only increasing the availability of housing but also improving the quality of housing for local communities.

Director's Introduction
I’m Nick Leadbetter, Director of Eight Property Group.
My wife and I began our property journey in 2013, buying residential properties and adding value to drive up the end value and make profit. Once each renovation project is completed, we sell the property and ‘trade’ up to a larger project. The end goal is to be living in a property that once sold, provides sufficient capital to buy the last property outright and have a large pot of capital in the bank.
Whilst property has always been my passion, my corporate background is in security and risk management. I have extensive (15 years) industry experience in leadership roles operating within Fortune Global 500 and FTSE 100 businesses. I have a proven track record in asset protection, profit protection, loss prevention and security risk management.
What does this mean for you?
Aside from being calm in a crisis, you will be working with a strategic thinking people person with the ability to create and maintain valuable relationships, embed positive attitudes, and develop innovative ideas. I have a passion for delivering direction to complex challenges and delivering results. I understand that speed matters in business, most decisions and actions are reversible.
Finally, security and risk management are at the forefront of everything that we do! We are always transparent with the figures; the risks associated and provide a minimum of two exit strategies to mitigate risk.
Who We Are
Eight Property Group Ltd specialises in helping people build long term, generational wealth, financial security, and peace of mind through property investment across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast and the wider North West region. Being a local company, we have comprehensive knowledge of the property market in this region along with established relationships with local estate and letting agents and a power team of professional and trades people around us.
Blackpool and the Fylde Coast is fantastic for multiple property strategies including Houses of Multiple Occupation, Serviced Accommodation and Buy-To-Let (BTL) due to strong rental demand.
What We Do
Property Sourcing
Our Sourcing is truly bespoke. We work on behalf of Investors to source properties meeting their exact criteria. We view all properties that we source and negotiate with Vendors/Agents on your behalf. If works are required, we provide an estimated breakdown of costs. We conduct market analysis to ensure that the property makes a good investment. We then oversee the purchase through to completion or we can be retained to manage the refurb (if applicable) and the letting/sale of the property if preferred.
Portfolio Building
Looking to create a legacy? As a key member of your power team, we provide a full end to end portfolio building service that can be 100% hands off, should you prefer. We create a tailored plan, structured around your requirements, and support you to build and scale a diverse portfolio, focused on cash flow and long-term capital appreciation. This service is ideal for cash rich, time poor Investors working towards a 5 or 10 year plan as we build a pipeline of properties and manage projects consecutively or simultaneously.
Fixed Returns
We welcome private investor finance therefore we offer a completely hands-off investment option providing fixed returns of 6% - 10% for Angel Investors looking to invest £50,000 and above for 12 - 36 months. Loaning funds to Eight Property Group creates an indirect exposure to property investing meaning Angel Investors can enjoy higher returns on their money with lower risk. Loan terms are drawn up to protect both parties legally and financially. Security dependent on capital and terms of the loan.
Refurbishment Co-Ordination
Do you have a property local to ourselves that requires a refurb but don’t have the time, knowledge, or inclination to organise builders and trades? Time really is money when it comes to refurbishments; the longer a property sits empty, the more it costs you! We can co-ordinate the refurb on your behalf and our power team will get the property up to standard and ready for let or sale at the earliest opportunity.
Did You Know
Also, we are now a member of the National Association of Professional Sourcing Agents.
As a member of the National Association of Professional Sourcing Agents, we have undergone a series of rigorous checks to ensure that we meet the highest standards and level of compliance.
If you’re interested in making your money work harder by investing in property but lack the time, knowledge, or experience, we can help you to increase your wealth and create an additional stream of income.
