Investments

Acquisitions – Investments found

Some clients don’t know the area or have the necessary experience while others simply don’t have the time to research and locate a suitable investment. We are able to provide advice on buying and will happily track down a suitable property.

Student Housing Opportunities

We are always on the look out for good investments for our clients and at any one time we always know of two or three properties which we consider to be a good investment.

Opportunities at East 15 Acting School

Loughton is home to one of the UK’s leading acting schools. East 15 Acting School is part of the University of Essex and has recently expanded and with that has come a greater demand for student accommodation. Currently many students reside with host families or travel from surrounding towns. Your investment property can provide the sort of student housing that the nation’s future actors and actresses are searching for.

  • Testimonial

    ...We were students at the local East 15 Acting School and our schedules often conflicted with normal work hours but McKinley Residential dealt with any problems that arose quickly and efficiently even out of office hours.
