Nottingham born John Buxton, one of the directors of the company, bought his first property 30 years ago and began specialising in student accommodation in 1989. From the very beginning he aimed to provide high quality, well maintained accommodation at a fair and reasonable price. Although times and students’ expectations have changed this ethos still applies.
Dawn Buxton is a fellow director of the company and is involved with all aspects of the business from property acquisitions and refurbishments, lettings and collecting rents to managing the summer changeover of tenants and all the cleaning, repairs and maintenance that entails.
Matthew Buxton is John and Dawn’s son and runs the business, alongside Sarah, on a day to day basis. As a Property Manager, he lets and manages the homes, oversees their maintenance, and project manages refurbishments.
Property Manager, Sarah Blake, is involved at all stages of our tenancies from letting and moving in right through to deposit returns after our tenants have moved out. She is the main point of contact for our tenants throughout their tenancy for maintenance, repairs, rents and any other issues that may come up.
Ian Metcalfe is our full time maintenance man. He ensures that each of our 45 homes is in an excellent state of repair and responds to issues quickly and professionally. He can be easily recognised in his blue uniform which carries our logo.
We are proud of the fact that many of our properties are filled each year by word of mouth referrals from previous years’ tenants who have enjoyed living in one of our properties. If you would like to see what some of our previous tenants have said about us please click here.
