Supporting our customers

We are also determined to provide positive resale values and protect the financial investment made by our customers.

We are pleased that our in-house Resales team achieves a net price increase on average for the properties they resell. For example, for properties bought new in the last three years and since resold, the net increase averages 6%.

McCarthy Stone are committed to a long-term relationship with their customers. That is why from 2010 McCarthy Stone have taken a series of measures to build a sustainable partnership with their residents that is focused on their ongoing wellbeing. These include:

We now operate every development we build, ensuring the level of service and quality of the scheme is kept at a very high standard.
We have integrated our services, development and landlord operations and obligations which helps to retain the value of our properties.
As we remain as the landlord and managing agent on all new developments, our customers do not have to deal with any third party.
We have moved from selling 125-year leases to 999-year leases, meaning customers do not need to worry about lease renewals.
We have set up an in-house Resales Team who are best placed to promote the benefits of living in a McCarthy Stone property and maintain a database of people interested in buying. This is part of our new long-term focus.
We have improved our products by providing more internal space, additional car parking and enhanced kitchens and bathrooms. We are also reviewing our services on a regular basis and now offer new ways to pay for the services we deliver.
We now offer much more tenure choice. In 2020, around a third of our new completions were for rent or part rent, part buy. We have also launched new partnerships with Anchor Hanover and Homes England to provide more affordable options and alternatives to outright purchase.
We offer a service charge deferment option to support our customers and their families when they come to resell.

Independent research carried out by the Elderly Accommodation Counsel (EAC) in 2019 confirmed that new retirement properties typically increase in value.

Pauline Fall, McCarthy Stone Homeowner

“The Estates Manager, Rugile has been fantastic in helping me settle in. I have loved my first few months as an owner of a beautiful apartment. I feel safe and secure and know that I have the help and support of the fantastic staff whenever I need it. More than anything I value the independence I have to enjoy my retirement surrounded by my family and newfound friends.”

Charles Ashworth, McCarthy Stone Homeowner

“I wanted to move into a place where I would be part of a community, feel safe and have stacks of facilities on my doorstep. Poppy Court ticked all the boxes for me, and I haven’t looked back, it really is living made easy.”

Carolyn Richardson, McCarthy Stone Homeowner

“It also means you get to move into a ready-made community which has been great for mum as she’s been able to make friends really quickly and blend into life at the development. The social scene is fantastic – she’s almost never at a loose end and everyone rallies round and supports each other which is just so wonderful to see.”
