I looked into several companies before deciding where to invest, and one stood our right away. They quickly sent a digital pack with key info about property, location, potential growth, costs, and rental returns. Most communication was through text and email, which made things fast and efficient. All expenses, like legal fees and stamp duty, were clearly explained. Since the property is still being built, I was able to buy it below market value.

The support I received was exceptional
The support I received was exceptional, not just during the process, but even afterward. I'm especially thankful to Zacc, who made everything easy to understand, informative and surprisingly enjoyable. He was always quick to respond to any questions and kept us updates even after the exchange was complete.

I was looking forward to seeing the construction firsthand, but because of safety regulations, visiting the site wasn't an option, something I totally respected. I’d already been following the progress online, and things were clearly moving along smoothly. Instead, James gave me a tour of the neighborhood, which ended up being even more valuable.

Dear Dorothy,
Thank you for your review.
Health and safety rules coupled with insurance stipulations have made site visits difficult. However, as you pointed out, the location visits are proving valuable in providing investors with the opportunity to gain a wider perspective on their investment.
James thanks you for mentioning him and tells me that your Developer has organized some drone photography, which should be with you in a day or two.
Yours,
Portico Invest

I had some concerns about off-plan investment, but the Portico team took the time to address every question thoroughly. Duane met me in Leicester and gave me a detailed tour of the city, highlighting factors that would impact my investment. By the end, I realized I wasn't just buying a flat; I was securing a well-researched rental opportunity.

Dear Stacey,
Thank you for your review highlighting the general concern and lack of factual knowledge, among new investors, regarding the nature of off-plan investments.
We at Portico Invest understand that explaining off-plan is one of our most significant duties. We also conduct considerable due diligence and thorough research into all aspects of a development before placing it on our books. I am delighted that research became evident on your tour.
Duane thanks you for your compliments.

We wish to say a big thank you to Emily for her endless patience as she guided us to our first non-domestic property investment. We had no idea of what to expect when we started out. We were only looking, just as we have been looking for years. Right from start we trusted Emily and it just flowed along until we realized we finally were going to do it. No hard sell, just information and support.

My experience with Portico Invest
I had opportunity to work on purchase of a property with Daniel and Denean.
From the very beginning, They were incredibly prompt in responding to all my queries, no matter how big or small. Their professionalism and dedication was evident every step of the way.
What truly set Denean apart was her willingness to go the extra mile. She didn’t just answer my questions — she took the initiative to research and gather all the information I needed, ensuring I felt confident and informed throughout the entire process. Her hard work and determination made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
If you’re looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and caring real estate agent, I am sure Denean would exceed your expectations, and you will find it hard to work with another agent. Thank you, Denean!

The best staff
Portico respond quickly to any query. They will communicate by whatever means the customer chooses. Their willingness to take calls and deal with lengthy verbal or written explanations is a credit to the business. As a business owner, I understand the true value of great staff and Portico Invest has immense quality from top to bottom. Not only have I bought an, almost completed, bargain apartment in Leicester, I have learned much to improve my business. Thank you Portico on many levels

Thank you for your candid review.
I enthusiastically shared your comments with the team, who are delighted with your compliments and appreciation of their professionalism and work ethic. They thank you.
The apartments in Leicester have always presented an astute investment opportunity but are currently outstanding value as they are almost completed, and the developer has maintained the full off-plan price. A great addition to your portfolio.
