OUR MISSION

We’re dedicated to revitalising vacant properties across the UK, transforming them into vibrant, habitable spaces that enhance communities and support economic growth.

With over 50 years of combined experience, we are experts in tracing property owners,  acquiring vacant homes and turning them into opportunities for community growth.
 
With access to cash funds of £10million and the ability to purchase 100 properties per annum, we are trusted by councils and communities across the UK.

OUR STORY

We’re Empty Property Hunters, and we see the hidden stories in these neglected spaces. Across England, nearly 700,000 homes stand empty, with over 260,000 of these left unloved for six months or more.


Our story isn’t just about buildings; it’s about people. At the heart of our work are our local heroes - our Hunters. These are everyday people from your neighbourhood who keep their eyes peeled for forgotten properties.

 

We celebrate each Hunter’s discovery, thanking them with a £20 gift voucher for every property they point out. And when a find turns into a purchase? They receive a finder’s fee of 1% of the purchase price. It’s our way of showing that what they do matters deeply, not just to us, but to the whole community.

Tracking down the owners of these properties is no small task. Outdated or missing contact details can make it tough, but we don’t back down easily. Our team digs deep, sometimes looking for relatives or making calls to piece together the right connections, all to bring a property - and a dream - back to life.


When we chat with property owners, it’s more than just business. It’s about listening, understanding their situation, and making sure any deal is right for everyone involved.


At Empty Property Hunters, our aim is simple: to turn vacant spaces into vibrant places. We are driven by a belief that through patience, collaboration, and a true grassroots effort, we can make a lasting impact on our neighbourhoods and our housing crisis. This is our story - a story of local people, local communities, and real change - one home at a time.
