I’m Sam Mackney, founder of SM Property Group. After years working as an electrician across Greater Manchester, I developed a street-level understanding of the areas, the properties and the real costs behind refurbishing them.
I watched too many investors make avoidable mistakes because they didn’t know the local market or had no idea who to trust.
So I built a service that gives investors a safe, supported way to build wealth in Manchester, without the risk or the learning curve.


I live overseas and wanted to invest in the UK but didn’t know where to start. SM Property Group handled the whole process and found me a property that met my budget and yield expectations. I couldn’t be happier with the result.

From our first call, I knew I could trust them. The process was smooth, communication was clear, and they delivered exactly what they promised — a high-yield property without the stress of managing it myself.

Working with SM Property Group was the easiest investment decision I’ve ever made. They took care of everything and kept me informed at every stage. I now have my first Buy-to-Let in Manchester with a solid return coming in.
From typical costs to refurb options and how to assess whether a deal actually stacks. Discover the essentials every investor should know before investing in a BTL.
We handle everything from sourcing and negotiation to conveyancing, refurb and tenanting. You get regular updates, but you don’t need to manage any of the process yourself. Your involvement will be required when handling sensitive details such as conversations with solicitors and mortgage advisors. But we oversee this process to ensure things move along quickly.
Every property goes through a full assessment including comparable sales, rental demand, yield, refurb costing and expected return. My trades background means you get realistic refurb estimates, not guesswork.
Yes. Many of our clients are first-time investors who want a safe, supported way to get started. We guide you through everything step by step and help you avoid the common mistakes.
We work across Greater Manchester, focusing on strong rental areas with proven yields and long-term growth potential. Because I’ve worked across the city as an electrician, you benefit from real, on-the-ground knowledge.
Our consulting fee is something we can share on our call, depending on the scope of the portfolio you'd like to build.
Book a quick call and we’ll walk through your goals, budget and the best starting point for your portfolio. No pressure, just clarity.
