Service schedule – Property Pension Club

The service costs are on a registration fee (reg) to use a service and individual costs, to get the relevant price add the service charge in the column for a membership type to the standard costs*.

For most services, the first part of the service is included within the registration, and charges go on after this covering further help.

The difference in services and registration cost to use various services, according to membership types, comes about as they are being subsidized from membership subscriptions received. The registration fee is per service, or per property and nothing to do with the clubs joining fee.

*Where a cost is defined under a membership type, this is taken instead of the standard cost

See the relevant service description for a fuller explanation of costs for each.

Abbreviations: k=1000, reg = registration fee

The table below is for comparative purposes only and may not represent all the conditions or rates, so see the service descriptions for more details.

The services are available to our members and to members of other clubs who have a co-operative arrangement with us, they are not available to the public.

Description

Bronze

Self build/build to let :- Affordable homes, mostly estates but some in fills, of standard size and similar style to the average new house on a modern estate, but probably around 40% cheaper. Mostly 1, 2 and 3 bedroom homes, of similar design with a single garage. Overseas property excluded for first 3 years membership.
No registration or additional costs

Silver

Self build/build to let :- Executive homes, larger homes, rooms or plots. Built normally on estates, infill, or a small site with one or two properties. May involve replacing another property. Attractive to those who could afford an average home or better but would like a large home, higher rooms, and other features of an executive home at about the same price as a standard home. Probably around a 40% saving on homes of a similar design. Also smaller homes more geographically limited, for example wanting to be in a particular village or small area
No registration or additional cists

Gold and Copper

Self build/build to let :- Larger executive homes, and where location becomes more important, perhaps a view, near a river or lake, in landscaped setting. Could be on an estate but more likely to be a single home or one of a pair in a larger plot. May involve knocking down an existing property and replacing, particularly with country settings. The above with around a 40% saving, barn and mill conversions, with variable savings depending on site and style,  plus contemporary homes individually designed and perhaps more difficult to get planning consent for, with often a lower saving

Costs - Plus time and expenses specific to the project, beyond what would have been involved in a project involving a standard executive home, this is often extra time spent undertaking work and negotiating with planners so as to get planning consent. No Registration.

Platinum

Self build/build to let :-  Mansion, new large country home, or exceptional position. These often require large sites and the area has to often be more select.  

Costs - Plus time and expenses specific to the project. No Registration

Diamond

Self build/build to let :-  Palace or larger mansion home internationally. Exceptional situations

Costs Plus all time and expenses specific to the project. No registration.

General notice: The club and providers of the information are not financial advisors, the information we provide is equivalent to that you might reasonably expect to find in a quality magazine. It is, as far as we can, well researched, facts checked, and independent, unless clearly shown as a club service. The application of this knowledge is down to you and you must decide what is relevant to you in your own circumstances and if you do not have the ability to decide for yourself  you should seek whatever legal or financial advice that you feel is appropriate. Our crystal balls are well polished, but the future even for us can be less than accurately viewed, and therefore you should consider any projection or view that we may present in relation to the future as a mixture of foresight based on information and probability, personal views with a bit of guesswork thrown in, in exactly the same way as any other person or organizations forecasts are. We will of course try to update our information and views as developments occur, or governments or others change the rules of the game. We can make mistakes, or have written something that makes perfect sense to us, but may be unclear for others, if you feel we have then you should let us know, we also like to be told what a good job we are doing.
