Property Development System

From Deal to Exit – The BARE 7‑Stepping‑Stones System

Property development is full of noise. Everyone promises a secret shortcut or a magic deal, but success comes from well‑designed systems grounded in real buildings. BARE Capital grew out of decades of combined experience in construction, land acquisition and hands‑on regeneration.

This programme guides you step‑by‑step from identifying opportunities through to adding value, managing the build, scaling your portfolio and finally refinancing or exiting.

BARE Capital Philosophy

The founders of BARE Capital offer an insight into their proprietary development philosophy and risk mitigation strategy employed by BARE Capital Ltd, a company specializing in the conversion of redundant heritage commercial buildings into residential accommodation in the North West of England. This strategy is structured around the core lifecycle of Buy, Add Value, Refinance or Exit (BARE), forged by founders who unified their diverse backgrounds in construction, project management, and high-volume tenancy operations.

The central component is the 7-Stepping-Stones System, which enforces a rigorous, gate-based decision process to audit optimism and protect capital, ensuring projects earn the right to move forward only with conservative evidence. Crucially, BARE mandates that every deal must be designed from day one to support two distinct monetization paths—refinance or sale—to ensure resilience against rapid market shifts.

The Seven Gates

A systematic approach to property development success

01

Gate 1 – Screen (Buy)

Define and screen your investment patch. Identify the towns, sub‑areas and streets where demand, demographics and planning policy align with your strategy.

02

Gate 2 – Verify (Buy)

Verify the acquisition stack. Analyse deals, test scenarios and confirm that your purchase, finance and value‑add assumptions stand up to evidence.

03

Gate 3 – Appraise (Buy)

Dive deep into financial modelling and policy checks. Stress test your numbers, analyse comparable rents and sales, and only progress deals that meet the BARE return metrics.

04

Gate 4 – Plan (Add Value)

Design the route from planning consent to tender. Produce schedules of work, tender packs, programmes and compliance maps before committing capital.

05

Gate 5 – Design (Add Value)

Create a product that tenants love. Refine layouts, finishes and community concepts based on market evidence and regulatory requirements.

06

Gate 6 – Deliver (Add Value)

Install systems and teams to deliver and operate at scale. Automate reporting, compliance and operations so you can grow confidently.

07

Gate 7 – Exit (Re‑finance or Exit)

Refinance to recycle capital or exit via sale. Prepare lender packs, compare exit routes and plan your reinvestment strategy for continuous momentum.
