The Opportunity

A repositioning play in a proven market

Long Eaton is one of the East Midlands’ most established locations for professional HMO investment, benefiting from its strategic position between Derby and Nottingham and a strong, diverse employment base. The town is ideally placed for commuters, with excellent road and rail links providing easy access to major employment hubs including Nottingham City Centre, Derby City Centre, East Midlands Airport, Pride Park and several large industrial and logistics parks.

Demand for high-quality shared accommodation is driven by a wide range of working professionals employed across healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, engineering and professional services. Long Eaton’s affordability compared to neighbouring Nottingham, combined with its strong transport connections, continues to attract tenants seeking well-presented, all-inclusive accommodation within easy reach of work.

With a growing population, consistent rental demand and attractive entry prices relative to many competing locations, Long Eaton offers investors the opportunity to achieve strong cash flow alongside long-term capital growth potential.

Why We Selected It

The Brixvoir standard

The character, scale and kerb appeal of the property set it apart from many traditional HMO investments, creating the potential to attract high-quality professional tenants and command strong rental values. The generous accommodation allows for a thoughtfully designed layout that delivers both attractive communal living and private space for residents.

Unlike many HMO investments that are situated on predominantly rental-led streets, this property benefits from being located within a stronger residential setting, surrounded by well-maintained family homes. As a result, investors may benefit not only from robust rental performance but also from enhanced long-term capital appreciation, supported by the underlying desirability of the location and the character of the building itself. The proposed works are anticipated to fall under the Neighbour Consultation Scheme (Prior Approval) process, and with a neighbouring property having already secured approval for a similar conversion, we do not foresee any significant planning obstacles, although formal approval would remain subject to the local authority’s assessment.

Our Story

Brixvoir was created through the strategic collaboration of established businesses operating across the property, finance and development sectors — bringing together funding capability, operational infrastructure and proven refurbishment expertise into one integrated turnkey investment platform.

A £50 million funding partnership at launch

To launch the business, Brixvoir has secured an initial £50 million internal funding partnership through its strategic relationship with Angel Property Finance — providing dedicated in-house funding capability for Brixvoir clients acquiring investment properties through the platform. The funding facility has been structured to allow Brixvoir to scale aggressively, move quickly on opportunities and streamline the investment journey from acquisition through to refurbishment, refinancing and long-term management.

This initial funding line represents the first phase of a much larger long-term growth strategy for the business, with further institutional and private funding partnerships expected to follow as Brixvoir continues to expand its operations, development pipeline and national presence within the property investment sector.

Built on proven businesses, not built from scratch

Rather than operating as a traditional sourcing company, Brixvoir was built by combining the proven systems, experience and operational strengths behind multiple established businesses already operating successfully within the property sector.

The refurbishment and development model behind Brixvoir has been heavily influenced by the experience of Jason Jouan through The Jouan Group, where he has overseen and delivered tens of millions of pounds worth of property renovations and value-add development projects. Jason Jouan and his associated businesses have also received recognition and media coverage across a range of national and international publications including Forbes, GQ, The Independent, Men’s Health and other business and media platforms — recognising his work, entrepreneurial journey and growing presence within the property and business sectors.

Pani Zannetou is the founder of Curran Birds + Co, one of the region’s fastest-growing modern estate agencies, recognised for its strong market presence, modern approach and rapid growth within the property sector. Since launching, the business has expanded aggressively with multiple offices and a growing team, becoming one of the area’s most recognised independent agencies. The company has built a reputation for high-quality presentation, strong operational infrastructure and a forward-thinking approach to estate agency and property marketing. Alongside this, Pani Zannetou has become recognised as a growing entrepreneur within the wider property and business sector through the development of his multiple businesses.

Alongside this, Pani Zannetou and Jason Jouan also co-founded Jouan Real Estate, a specialist property management and operations company working closely with landlords and investors across the sector.

One integrated platform

Together, these businesses provide the operational infrastructure, management capability, development experience and strategic partnerships behind Brixvoir — creating a platform designed to deliver carefully selected turnkey investment opportunities with a long-term focus on quality, execution and scalable growth.

With a focus on quality over volume, Brixvoir is positioned as a modern property investment brand built on credibility, execution and long-term strategic partnerships — with ambitions to become one of the UK’s leading fully integrated property investment and funding platforms over the coming years.
