Platinum Property Partners

“Looking to achieve financial freedom and a better quality of life?"

Platinum Property Partners (PPP) is an exclusive franchise business for high-net worth individuals or couples, based on a tried, tested and proven system, which effectively combines a one to one start up mentoring programme with a range of high value on-going support services.

Franchise Partners (the PPP term for Franchisee) follow PPP’s methods to acquire and manage their own investment property portfolios, mentored and supported by experts in the field and a team of top legal and financial professionals.

The company is developing a network of high net worth property investors across the UK who want to benefit from a unique formula, which maximises capital gain and cash yield. The franchise business model is based on a very successful and profitable buy to let investment strategy, pioneered by the founders, Steve Bolton and Nick Carlile, two highly successful property investors with multi-million pound portfolios. One of the unique features of the system is that it generates a regular and reliable source of profit for Franchise Partners in addition to the substantial benefits of leveraged capital growth.

PPP is also unique in that it had already recruited 10 Foundation Franchise Partners prior to its official launch in July 2007.

Vision, Mission & Values

Two of the primary objectives for Platinum Property Partners are 'to provide exceptional value to every single Franchise Partner' and 'to be underpinned by a business model that is both sustainable and profitable'.

Combining these two things is the holy grail for any business. We are very pleased to say we have succeeded on both counts! This is excellent news for our Franchise Partners. It means that they can make very high returns with very low levels of risk. They can be further strengthened in the confidence that their partnership with Platinum Property Partners is a solid, stable and long-term business that will be around for decades to come.

Message From Sarah Walker - Presenter of BBC TV's 'To Buy Or Not to Buy'

“The Platinum Property Partners Franchise business is second to none. Their proven system is extremely successful for providing clients with a regular and substantial source of monthly income, as well as an ever-increasing property portfolio and asset base. The system they have developed and the personal and one to one mentoring concept they use are by far the most effective I have come across. I have no hesitation in recommending their services as the best in the business and over the last two years I have seen their team consistently operate with 100% integrity, passion and transparency. Platinum Property Partners actually deliver on the promises they make and in my experience that is rare in this industry”
