Ward & Co Property Investments
Discussion
Anyone heard of these guys? Rang me up recently advertising their services etc. Basically they source and handle the whole process of investing in property, from all over it seems. Just read their brochure and it sounds pretty interesting, though I'm always skeptical of cold callers. Anyone had any dealings or experiences with them?
I can't comment on this company, but somebody saying "we'll do all the due diligence on your behalf", would ring massive alarm bells for me.
Get advice, get independent recommendations and, whatever they say, get a proper lawyer who specialises in the region or country you are buying in.

Never heard of the company. Property investment through a third party is pretty risky. Will trhe do due dilligence to investment grade standards? What sort of yield are they talking?
I source properties and have done for yrs. A few guys off here have successfully used my services. I would always advise that you do your own research to fully satisfy yourself before handing any money over. Some firms charge £1.000's as reservation fees, non refundable ones too. So when a deal goes belly up, your stuck, at best they'll offer you an alternative one but you might not want it, and they are within their T&Cs to keep your res fee. I found this out the hard way yrs ago with a firm that collected over £500k in res fees then disappeared!
