Managing director of the two companies, Paul Rothwell, said, “With a deposit to purchase a house out of reach for so many and increasing rental values, we are seeing people turning to substandard and poorly maintained properties. Our aim is to provide accommodation which is fit for purpose, well finished, safe and secure.”
