COMMON PROBLEMS
Investing in Property Doesn't Have To Be Difficult
Most investors want to get started in BTL, but quickly run into the same problems. Hours spent searching online. Confusing refurbishment costs. Not knowing which areas are actually good for rental demand. And no time to build the trusted team needed to do things properly.
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, unsure where to begin, or worried about making a costly mistake.

about
A Partner Who Knows Property Inside Out
II’m Sam Mackney, founder of SM Property Group.
Over the years, I’ve watched too many investors make avoidable mistakes — buying in the wrong areas, overpaying for deals that didn’t stack up, or trusting people who didn’t truly understand the local market. Property can be one of the most powerful wealth-building tools available, but without the right guidance, it can quickly become expensive and stressful.
That’s why I created SM Property Group. We specialise in sourcing and packaging carefully vetted buy-to-let opportunities in Darlington, focusing on strong yields, sensible entry prices and long-term fundamentals. Every deal is backed by real local knowledge, thorough due diligence and a clear investment rationale.
No hype. No inflated projections. Just solid, well-structured opportunities designed to help you build wealth with clarity, confidence and the right support around you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How hands-off is the service?
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.
How do you ensure the numbers stack up?
Every property goes through a full assessment including comparable sales, rental demand, yield, refurb costing and expected return. My extensive experience in consruction means you get realistic refurb estimates, not guesswork.
Do you work with investors who are brand new to BTL?
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.
What areas of the UK do you cover?
We work across the North East of Eangland, focusing on strong rental areas with proven yields and long-term growth potential.
What does it cost to work with you?
Our consulting fee is something we can share on our call, depending on the scope of the portfolio you'd like to build.
