Liam's story

Liam started in property the practical way, renovating and refurbishing houses, mostly across the Midlands. Ten years of that work taught him what a house really costs to put right, which jobs add rent and which only add expense, and what a survey can miss.

For the last three years he has used that knowledge to find investment property for other investors, first under earlier business names and, from 2026, as L.A.T Property Investments Ltd. Along the way he has been mentored by experienced investors, and the aim has stayed the same: a simple, honest service for new and experienced investors alike.

“I pride myself on using straightforward language and won't try to baffle you with industry jargon. You just want to feel confident you're getting good value and that everything stacks up.” Liam Taylor

What that background means for you

Repairs priced properly

Liam can walk round a house and price the work, so the numbers you see include what the property actually needs.

An honest no

If a property does not stack up, he will say so, even when you have fallen for it.

Plain English

No jargon, and every figure explained until you are comfortable with it.

One person throughout

The person who takes your first call is the one who views the property and sees the purchase through.

What LAT does, and what it doesn't

  • We do: find and check property Off-market, pre-market and auction property, screened against your brief.
  • We do: show you the full numbers Purchase costs, stamp duty, rental evidence and repair estimates for every property, explained in plain English.
  • We do: negotiate and coordinate Offer strategy, then keeping your solicitor, broker and the selling agent moving to completion.
  • We don't: hold your money You buy in your own name or your company's. We do not pool investors' money or hold funds for investment.
  • We don't: give regulated advice Mortgage, tax and legal advice come from independent specialists we can introduce.
  • We don't: manage or refurbish For lettings and building work we introduce agents and contractors, and you contract with them directly.
