I honestly couldn’t recommend the Alesco team enough. I invested in an off plan buy to let, and the team provided construction updates and assisted throughout the process. Special mention to Katy, who were always on hand to assist.

I have invested in numerous properties before - and never has the process been this easy. Clear, communicative and transparent - thank you Katy and team.

Alesco failed to carry out basic due diligence on a developer (Sourced Development Group) they actively promoted to investors. This is in relation to the Westminster Park development in Liverpool.
Ben Whitaker was the salesperson involved in this transaction.
As a result of that failure, investor funds now appear to be at serious risk of being lost. This is not a minor oversight, it’s a fundamental breakdown in responsibility.
Alesco are hard to get ahold of and do not take accountability. I am looking into raising a class action suit for negligence and misrepresentation of the Westminster Park project.
When an agent markets an investment, investors reasonably expect that the developer has been properly vetted. That did not happen here.
I strongly advise anyone considering investing through Alesco to NOT. Based on my experience, I would not trust this agent with investor funds. The positive reviews are made to be taken at the beginning of the process to exchange contracts, not based on actual deliverables in projects.

I wanted to invest in UK real estate, but I wasn't sure where to begin. I'm based in Dubai. The team handled viewings on my behalf and kept me informed at every stage, making the entire process simple. They located a fantastic off-plan property with high rental returns in Liverpool for me. There was always professional and timely communication.

Last year, I bought my first buy-to-let in Manchester from them. From choosing the property to setting up the mortgage, the consultant guided me through every stage. They did a great job of explaining the rental yield projections without going overboard. I had tenants in three weeks after the apartment was finished on schedule. Overall, it was a good experience, especially for a novice real estate investor.

I paid a deposit and legal fees after being given information about a property that later turned out to be incorrect. When I raised concerns, the sale did not proceed.
I requested a refund, but the process became extremely stressful. I was told that my refund would only be processed if I removed my Trustpilot review and I had to removed t. I also received emails warning of potential legal action if I posted further reviews.i have emails from them confirm this.
Although the money was eventually refunded, it only happened after significant pressure and distress. I believe refunds should not be conditional on removing honest reviews, and complaints should be handled professionally and transparently.
I am sharing my experience so others are aware of how this situation was handled.

Hotel rooms were the primary alternative investment that attracted my curiosity. I was able to determine whether it matched my objectives after the team explained how it operates and what I should expect.

Katy and the Alesco Team have been extremely helpful. From answering my questions, providing updates- and ensuring what could have potentially been a stressful situation, a smooth and an easy process. I will definitely be back in touch for future investments

I wrote a review last year about Alesco to praise on them and today after I lost 55K stirling pound, I have to write this review. Not to put them in touble, but for share experience with others before they full in similar trap. My story in short lines; Aleso proposed a unit with a contractor who went in solvency and administration after one year only. This means that Aleso never did their job to investigate and verify property seller financial status and to make sure he is in strong position to finance and complete their project. If you are ready to put your saving at risk and to lose your money like me, you are welcome to deal with Alesco Property.
For reference to Alesco personnel wjo might read this review, I'm talking about Gibson Quay Project in Liverpool

I’ve had a great experience with Alesco. They’ve been very friendly, professional and have kept me well informed throughout the process of me purchasing a property. They also took the time to answer any questions I’ve had along the way.

Hello Alesco
We were new investors with Alesco in a UK property, initially skeptical as it was our first overseas. However, they not only worked closely with us throughout the buying process but their response promptness and a strong sense of relationship makes us convinced we have chosen the right partner.
1. Paul and Stefanie worked with us closely throughout and helped us well. Top team.
2. Ryan, one of the proprietors has always been reachable for any queries any time which is key for us.
3. Their customer service team is prompt, responsive and understanding of customer needs well (a recent last week experience)
We strongly recommend them to future investors especially overseas.
Regards
Ram

I have had a good experience with Alesco so far. The team are very responsive and address any queries on my property purchase quickly. All team members have been very professional. Based on my interactions so far, I highly recommend Alesco.

Reply from Alesco Property
Absolutely dreadful company to deal with. Impersonal and rude. Have supplied a knackered shipping container and incorrectly hassling.
I would never recommend this company.
I have reverted to being as rude to them as they have been to a LOYAL PAYING CUSTOMER. SCUM...

Reply from Alesco Property
The team were extremely fast at responding to any queries. They made it very easy through out the process.
As this was my first property purchase I was nervous but I was put at ease by Alesco.

I recently came into the London office to look into a buy to let property with my mother, I spoke with Gemma Campey, James Needham and Dan Sinclair who gave up a lot of time to run us through the full process. We haven't proceeded yet but felt like now I have the information I need I may be able to move forward in the very near future with alescoproperty. 100% recommend to all thinking about a buy to let avenue.
