Leading International Off-Plan Property Consultants LH1 Global, has reported record results for its exclusive developer partners across a number of prime property developments in the UK. LH1 Global has overseen the launch of over 400 units in recent months, with the majority sold in record time.

Navigating challenging market conditions at the end of 2022 and across 2023, LH1 Globalsustained strong results by de-risking developments. This was achieved by offering exchange of contracts pre-build, which eliminated the developer’s exposure to market fluctuations throughout the build cycle and provided a much-needed first-rate exit strategy with multiple projects in the pipeline.

LH1 Global’s expert knowledge surrounding the sales and marketing of prime residential developments offered clients a unique service, sourcing buyers from both domestic and international markets spanning the world, through demonstrating the long-term investment potential offered in the UK.

Across this period LH1 Global worked with leading developers to handle the entire sales and marketing process from conception to completion for landmark developments within Birmingham, Bradford, Manchester, Ashford and Cheltenham.

Rayna Hunter, CEO at LH1 Global, commented: “We are delighted by the success we have achieved for our development partners across a number of high-profile projects. We pride ourselves on being hands-on and getting into the finer details of the entire sales and marketing process and identifying the key USPs that will attract the right buyers. The majority of our clients have been with us for a long time and we have a built a fantastic rapport and trust that we can support them throughout the lifespan of a development.”

“We adopt a bespoke approach for each project and take them forward on their own merit, whilst using a variety of effective sales and marketing models that generate an industry-leading sales strategy. We work with a range of clients on a variety of projects in all major towns and cities, from new build developments and PDs to specialist heritage projects such as mill conversions and already have a number of exciting new launches in the pipeline for 2024 that we’re excited to take to market in the coming months.”

LH1 Global also support their developer clients with the sourcing and acquisition of new land opportunities and development projects, with a number of recent successes stemming from focusing on areas that offer the highest potential long-term returns in a compressed market. Specific briefs in 2023 typically focused on looking at locations of regeneration that offer the best potential capital growth throughout the build cycle. Recent success stories include:
