Why Busy CEOs Choose Foot Forward for Property Investments
September 23, 2025
For over 23 years Foot Forward has been developing and managing high yield high income fully managed HMO portfolios. During this time we have seen an increasing number of busy CEOs come to us not just to generate wealth but to protect their savings from being eroded by inflation. These CEOs are often cash rich but time poor and they value the security and growth potential that our fully managed HMO properties provide.
Why CEOs Choose HMOs Over Traditional Investments
High performing executives understand that leaving large sums sitting in the bank allows inflation to chip away at their purchasing power. HMOs offer a proven strategy to create consistent monthly income while also delivering strong long term capital growth. By working with Foot Forward CEOs gain access to carefully sourced and expertly managed HMO portfolios designed to maximise both yield and security.
Built by a CEO for CEOs
Our entire product was developed around our managing director Jeff who was a time poor CEO himself. He understood first hand the challenges of having the funds to invest but not the time to manage property portfolios. This is why Foot Forward’s service is tailored to meet the needs of executives who want to deploy capital into HMOs without sacrificing their time or focus. Every aspect of our model has been shaped to remove stress and deliver income with complete efficiency.
The Appeal of a Fully Hands Free Portfolio
Most CEOs simply do not have the time to deal with tenants, maintenance, regulations, and the constant oversight property management requires. This is why our hands free model resonates so strongly. At Foot Forward we handle everything from acquisition and refurbishment to tenanting and long term management. This allows our clients to continue focusing on their businesses and careers while we ensure their property portfolios generate income without them ever lifting a finger.
Why London CEOs Look North
Many of our clients are based in London but they are increasingly looking to the North of England where capital appreciation has been consistently stronger and deals offer far better returns. London property may carry prestige but it is in the North where the numbers truly stack up. By leveraging our 23 years of local market expertise Foot Forward ensures that investments are placed in areas with long term demand and reliable growth prospects.
Experience and Trust Built Over Two Decades
When choosing who to work with for property investment experience matters. For more than two decades Foot Forward has been trusted to deliver results for high net worth clients. We combine detailed market research with hands on management to build HMO portfolios that are both income generating and inflation beating. This level of service and expertise is why so many CEOs continue to choose us as their long term property partner.

CEOs need investments that protect their wealth while fitting seamlessly into their demanding lifestyles. Foot Forward provides exactly that with high yield fully managed HMO portfolios that deliver income and growth without the time burden. With 23 years of proven results and a track record of trust CEOs across London and beyond are turning to Foot Forward to secure their financial future in the North of England property market.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an HMO and why is it a good investment for CEOs?
An HMO or House in Multiple Occupation is a property rented out by at least three people who are not from the same household. It offers higher rental yields compared to single lets which makes it attractive for CEOs who want strong monthly income.
Why do CEOs prefer fully managed property portfolios?
Most CEOs are time poor and cannot manage the day to day responsibilities of property ownership. A fully managed service means everything is handled by Foot Forward so they can focus on their careers while still enjoying consistent property income.
Why are London based CEOs looking to the North of England?
The North of England has stronger capital appreciation and better yielding deals compared to London. This means CEOs can achieve higher returns and build long term growth portfolios without overpaying for property.
What makes Foot Forward different from other property investment companies?
Foot Forward was designed around the needs of our managing director Jeff who was a time poor CEO himself. With over 23 years of experience we specialise in building high yield hands free HMO portfolios tailored to busy executives who want results without the workload.
How does Foot Forward protect against inflation?
By investing in high yield HMOs that generate steady income and benefit from long term capital growth clients are able to protect their wealth and reduce the impact of inflation on their savings.
