Sourced has declared “mission accomplished” just eight years after launching its first franchise, claiming it has dismantled traditional barriers to property investment and built a nationwide ecosystem spanning more than 200 territories.
The property investment franchise says it has funded more than £30m into projects across the UK and grown its investor database to more than 100,000 people, positioning itself as one of the sector’s most expansive hybrid models.
Founded in 2017, Sourced entered a market it describes as fragmented and difficult for would-be investors and landlords to navigate.
A year later it launched its franchise network, offering individuals the opportunity to run their own property businesses with centralised tools, training and funding support.
INVESTMENT PLATFORM
The business has since expanded into brokerage, accountancy support and complex finance sourcing, while unveiling a new connected investment platform, Enterprise, last year as part of its push to digitise the investor journey.
Stephen Moss (main picture), CEO and founder of Sourced, says: “Just eight years after Sourced launched its first franchise, thanks to sustained innovation and market expansion, we have achieved our founding mission to remove traditional barriers and make property investment more accessible to everyone.”
INVESTOR ECOSYSTEM
He adds: “Sourced was launched in 2017, when investors and landlords were only able to access extremely fragmented property investment services. We had a vision at Sourced to develop an investor ecosystem that would totally transform the landscape of property investment, and I am delighted that we have succeeded in this mission.”
Moss says the franchise model has evolved into what he describes as a “fully established, scalable ecosystem model”, combining deal sourcing, funding, SPV set-up, limited company finance and property accounting under one umbrella.
FURTHER EXPANSION
He adds: “Sourced’s growth has been phenomenal, and the network has grown to 200+ franchises across the UK, with £30m+ funded into property projects.”
Looking ahead, Moss confirmed the firm is targeting further expansion through mergers and acquisitions of established lettings agencies, alongside recruiting new franchisees and property partners.
He says: “Sourced is no longer just a property franchise or an investment platform, it has evolved into a complete property investment ecosystem, built to support modern investors in a complex and evolving market.”
