About Us
We're JACK
Jordan | Alex | Carss | Kyselak
Not that we knew much about it, but we met when we were babies at a baby group in Harrow, Greater London. Fast forward to today and we’re now business partners moving our way through the property industry, which all stems from our shared immense passion for property.
Jordan, our resident Project Manager, has over 10 years of experience in managing complex projects in the digital transformation and IT sector. Jordan’s expertise in planning and data analysis helps us identify the best investment opportunities and streamline our processes for maximum efficiency.
Alex, our resident Electrician, also has 10+ years of hands-on experience. Alex’s practical knowledge ensures all electrical needs are addressed, our investment properties are safe, compliant, and optimised for energy efficiency and cost savings.
Our company values are Quality, Creativity, Personability and Proficiency. Our track record is second to none, with our last projects uplifting an average of 44% in value from a refurbishment cost of on average 20% of the original property value.

📘 AST = Assured Shorthold Tenancy. This is the standard rental agreement used for most residential lets in England, and it sets out the rights and responsibilities of both landlord and tenant.
⚠️ This is changing. The Renters’ Rights Act will effectively remove ASTs and replace them with rolling periodic tenancies, alongside the removal of no fault evictions.
💡 Structure matters just as much as yield when building a resilient portfolio.

📘 EPC = Energy Performance Certificate. It measures a property’s energy efficiency rating from A to G.
EPC ratings can impact tenant demand, mortgage options, and long term compliance as regulations tighten.
⚠️ Lower rated properties may require upgrades before refinance or letting.
We assess the EPC position early in every deal to protect long term viability and lender options.

This all started from a conversation in the car (and being lifelong friends 🤝🏼)
At the time we were just talking about doing a JV on a deal, nothing too serious. But the more we spoke about it, the more it felt like something we wanted to build properly and for the long term. So we setup JACK Estates as a company, got everything in place, brought in the right people around us, and gave ourselves a proper structure to grow from.
Not long after that we were back out on viewings, heading down to Devon where we already had trades and could actually start putting things into action.

📖 ROCE = Return on Capital Employed. This measures how efficiently your capital performs once deployed.
Unlike ROI, ROCE becomes especially powerful in refinance strategies where capital is recycled (for example BRRR).
Here is a simple example.
You invest £50,000 into a property and it produces £5,000 per year in profit. That is a 10 percent return.
If you later refinance and pull £40,000 of your original £50,000 back out, you now only have £10,000 left in the deal. If the property still produces £5,000 profit per year, your ROCE is now effectively 50 percent.
💡 Recycling capital is central to scaling a portfolio sustainably.

One of the biggest lessons we learned on this deal had nothing to do with the refurb, it was utilities! 💧
When we purchased the property, both flats had been running off one diverted meter. The setup had been blacklisted with energy providers, and getting new meters installed turned into months of back and forth.
☑️ Lesson learned:
As soon as you complete on a conversion type of deal (house to flats, office to residential etc), get your electric and gas applications submitted immediately. If the grid needs to attend or meters need replacing, it can take far longer than you expect.
These are the parts of a project that do not show up on a spreadsheet, but they absolutely impact timelines and cashflow. Experience saves time, and time protects returns. 🤝

📘 ROI = Return on Investment. It measures how much profit you make compared to the money you put in.
If you invest £50,000 into a project and make £10,000 profit, that’s a 20% ROI.
It’s one of the first numbers investors look at, but it only tells part of the story.
💡 At JACK Estates, we don’t just look at ROI. We look at how quickly capital can be recycled and redeployed to compound returns over time.

One of our early projects, now fully self-sufficient.
We put in £60,000, pulled out £45,000 on the refinance, and let the rental profit pay down the remaining £15,000 over time.
Started at £565 monthly profit, now tracking at £650+ as rents have increased.
It took just over two years for the remaining capital to be returned through cashflow, and it has been generating income ever since.
🧠 Smart acquisition
🔧 Light refurb
💷 £45,000 out on refinance
📈 Remaining £15,000 paid back from rent

Our Portfolio Building Service is designed for clients with a larger pot of capital and a long-term vision.
We sit down, map out a strategy over 3, 5 or 10 years, and put their money to work in a way that aligns with their goals.
It is ideal for high net worth individuals who are not looking to be involved day to day, but want a clear plan that shows:
☑️ What we will invest in
☑️ When and how the money comes back out
☑️ What the portfolio could be worth over time
This is a tailored approach built around results, not guesswork.
