Business overview

Trafalgar Property Group Plc trading operations are conducted through its wholly owned subsidiaries Trafalgar New Homes Ltd and Trafalgar Retirement+ Ltd.
Trafalgar New Homes is a regional property developer focused upon Kent, Surrey, Sussex and the M25 ring south of London. This prosperous area has excellent communications particularly to London, Gatwick, and the channel ports/tunnel, and enjoys a buoyant property market with prices well above the national average.
Prior to establishing Combe Bank Homes in 2006, its management has headed various similarly operating and successful property development businesses including quoted companies.
A minimal Head Office and Administrative infrastructure is maintained with most functions including architectural design and construction outsourced, and consequently the business operates on a very low fixed cost base, with a known fixed cost before any project is taken forward. The risk of unproductive overhead from employing in-house professionals when activity is slack is avoided. Activities can be quickly up or down scaled according to market conditions.
The management has highly developed and proven skills in obtaining planning approvals to enhance land values, and strong well established relationships with estate and land agents.
Typically development sites will consist of between 4 to 20 homes, with prices ranging from £120,000 to £500,000. Refurbishment and smaller projects are also undertaken. Within this unit size, competition to purchase development sites from land buyers is relatively weak, as this size is unattractive to major national and regional house builders who require a larger scale to justify their administration and overheads; whilst being too many units for the jobbing builder to finance or undertake as a project.
Trafalgar Retirement + was established in October 2016 by Dan Stocks and Paul Treadaway, both of whom have an extensive history and experience in land assembly and residential development. (Dan Stocks resigned from the Board on 10 December 2019.)
The Company considers the supply of specialist housing for the elderly is limited and is predominantly arranged on a rental model. It is considered that there is an opportunity to develop extra care and assisted living for elderly owner-occupiers, and the focus will be on affluent urban areas in southwest London and Surrey, with higher owner occupancy and where there is considered to be a higher growth in the over 65 years bracket. Properties to be developed are to be on the ‘assisted living and extra care’ operating model, providing independently owned apartments on long leasehold ownership with service charges to cover the costs of domiciliary services; additional care services being provided through a 24/7 onsite care operator. Trafalgar Retirement+ create stunning developments for elderly home purchasers, our ethos is developments that have their own community and wellbeing.
