About Holm Oak Property

Property With Purpose. People You Trust.

Our Story

Property investment was never just about money for us—it was about freedom, stability, and making thoughtful choices for the future.

Before we even bought our own home, we invested in two student HMOs in Huddersfield—spotting potential in the more affordable Northern market while still renting in the South.

Through career changes, house moves, and raising two kids, we steadily built a portfolio of nine properties, now home to 34 tenants. Based in the Peak District, we focus on well-managed student and residential homes in Newcastle-under-Lyme.

For us, Holm Oak is more than a property business—it’s a way to create good homes, grow long-term value, and help others do the same.

Our Mission

At Holm Oak, we believe property should work for everyone—our tenants, our investors, and the communities we’re part of.

We’re passionate about creating high-quality, well-managed homes that genuinely improve people’s lives, while helping others discover smarter, more purposeful ways to grow their savings through property.

Our approach is grounded in professionalism, honesty, and long-term thinking. We focus on values-led development that creates lasting impact—homes and investments built to stand the test of time.

Our Values

At Holm Oak, every project is a chance to make a lasting difference—for our tenants, our investors, and the communities we serve.

Through thoughtful renovations and commercial-to-residential conversions, we aim to:

Provide real homes, not just housing – Creating places where people feel welcome, supported, and part of something.

Invest with purpose – Offering simple, steady ways to grow savings while generating genuine social value.

Prioritise sustainability – Building with energy efficiency and future resilience in mind.

Think long term – We're not chasing quick wins—we’re growing a portfolio that reflects our values and stands the test of time.

What we're working on

At Holm Oak, we’re proud to focus our work in and around Newcastle-under-Lyme - a town we know well, and where we see real opportunities to make a difference.

Since 2009, we’ve been growing our student HMO portfolio to meet the needs of Keele University’s thriving student population. Today, we own and manage six high-quality HMOs, providing safe, well-managed homes just a few miles from campus.

But our mission goes beyond student housing. With many buildings in the town centre underused or empty, we’re now expanding into commercial-to-residential conversions - creating affordable, modern accommodation that supports local people and brings new life to the high street.

For us, it’s not just about investing in property—it’s about helping our local area thrive.

Looking ahead

Property investment has helped me and my family build financial security—slowly, steadily, and in ways I never imagined when we began. Along the way, we’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and how to grow with care.

We’re excited about what’s next. As Holm Oak grows, we’re staying true to what matters: creating quality homes, building lasting value, and helping others invest with purpose.

I know many people are curious about property, but unsure where to start - or who to trust. If that sounds like you, I’d be happy to share what I’ve learned.
