Sourced Franchise: Ben's Journey to Securing His First Property Investment in Just One Month

Ben, a recent Sourced franchisee, has secured his first property investment just one month after completing the company’s induction training, demonstrating the speed and support available to new Partners.

How did Ben achieve such rapid success?

Within weeks of attending Sourced’s three-day induction program, Ben identified and acquired a four-bedroom end of terrace property for £183,000. He plans to undertake a conversion, transforming the house into a five-bedroom HMO. With an estimated build cost of £40,000 and a projected gross development value of £515,000, this first project showcases Ben’s ability to identify strong investment opportunities and act swiftly.

What role did Sourced Investor Mortgages play in Ben’s deal?

A key factor in Ben’s rapid progress was leveraging Sourced Investor Mortgages, the franchise’s in-house lending platform. Ben was able to secure all necessary funding within days, using his own deposit alongside finance provided by the platform, which covered both the remainder of the purchase and the full renovation costs. This tailored financial support was instrumental in enabling Ben to move quickly and secure the investment.

The in-house platform is described as being designed “by investors, for investors”, offering rates, terms, and packages that accommodate renovation costs and projects that might not meet the criteria of standard lenders. As highlighted in the press release, “Because we know your situation and are invested in your success, we can support projects that standard lenders simply won’t touch.”

What are the long-term benefits of Ben’s strategy?

On completion of the refurbishment, Ben aims to refinance the property, holding on to it as a long-term investment for recurring monthly income. This demonstrates a strategic approach that maximises return and supports future portfolio growth—key ambitions for many in the property investment sector.

How does this reflect the Sourced franchise model?

Ben’s journey illustrates the structured support available to new franchisees at Sourced. The combination of focused training, integrated financing, and ongoing Partner backing is designed to give newcomers the confidence and resources needed to secure tangible results quickly.

While Ben’s experience is individual, it underlines the advantages of joining a network where training, support, and finance are accessible from day one, setting a solid foundation for rapid investment achievements in the property sector.
