Seamless, Professional, and Exceptionally Supportive – Alesco Delivers Every Time
I recently purchased a 2-bedroom apartment in the X1 Trafford Waters development through Alesco Investment Properties, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the experience from start to finish.
From my first inquiry, the investment consultants were outstanding. Their attention to detail, market knowledge, and ability to tailor their advice to my goals gave me full confidence in my investment. They were incredibly thorough and transparent, making complex decisions feel simple and informed. Their guidance was never pushy — just honest, insightful, and rooted in experience.
The customer care team also deserves huge praise. Throughout the process, they were always available, responsive, and completely on top of every detail. They made what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and effortless. I genuinely felt looked after every step of the way.
What really stood out was the professionalism and care of the entire Alesco team. Every email, every call, and every update felt personal and meaningful. It’s clear they truly value their clients and take pride in the service they deliver.
Thanks to their support, the entire purchase process went off without a single issue — something that’s very rare in the world of property investment.
A massive thank you to the team at Alesco. You’ve set a very high standard, and I’m already looking forward to working with you again as I plan to add to my portfolio in the near future.
Highly recommended!
Gemma has been a wonderful help, polite friendly and always happy to answer questions even out of work hours.
This is our first purchase through Alesco and it won’t be our last - they provided excellent support throughout the process. Thank you to Gemma for all your hard work
Great experience using Alesco! Gemma was a great help and so friendly. Thank you!
Alesco have been superb. They made the process of purchasing an off plan property seamless and were readily available to help at every stage. Thank you Gemma for all your hard work once we reserved, we are looking forward to completing on this property.
Joanne Clark has always been very efficient, friendly and helpful. Her prompt responses have been much appreciated. If she does not know the answer (which is rare), she will says so and get the information very quickly. An asset to the company
I've had a very positive experience with Alesco Property. From the start, their team demonstrated strong market knowledge and a genuine understanding of what I was looking for in a property investment. They were transparent about the risks and benefits, and I appreciated the straightforward communication throughout the process.
In particular special thanks to Dario from the Alesco team.

This is the first time I have bought a buy to let property via Alesco and it won’t be my last! Really impressed with the whole process and communication throughout. Gemma was superb and always on hand to help with any queries - I would highly recommend
I invested in the Regents Plaza development in Salford, Manchester through Alesco, based on assurances from James Needham—now Managing Director—who repeatedly described it as a “bulletproof investment.” He emphasized that Alesco rigorously vets its developers and claimed Sourced Development Group was among the most reputable in the country.
The development was originally scheduled for completion in December 2020. That date was pushed to 2021, and since then, the long stop date has been missed multiple times. The most recent communication stated that Block D is now expected to complete in Q4 2026—over six years behind schedule.
What’s worse, I’ve now discovered that Regents Plaza Holding, the company that took our deposits to pass on to Sourced Development, has gone into administration. Unsurprisingly, both entities share the same management. It’s clear they’re using convoluted corporate structures to deflect responsibility and bury investor funds without consequence.
Alesco’s role in this cannot be ignored. You were not just a passive introducer—you were instrumental in promoting this scheme and reassuring investors of its credibility. I am demanding clear answers:
What due diligence was actually conducted on Sourced Development Group?
Why were investors not informed of the risks or the shared management between entities?
What steps is Alesco taking to protect investors now that the holding company is in administration?
This situation is not just a delay—it’s a breach of trust and a financial betrayal. I expect a prompt and transparent response.
Jack at Alesco could not have been more helpful navigating me through my first investment. Having come into this market as someone with no experience, I was instantly given the confidence that I was in the right hands. Highly recommend!
