The client:
EREC Estates specialise in property investment, development and management with a particular focus on student accommodation.
Through their UNINN brand, they have established a number of student accommodation buildings in Coventry, Leicester, Newcastle and Sheffield.
What we did:
Our targeted algorithms applied to data provided by Coventry City Council and the Valuation Office Agency highlighted an opportunity to reduce EREC Estates' business rates liability.
We then conducted a thorough audit of EREC Estates looking at both their business as a whole and also undertaking a deep dive into their property portfolio.
"I would not hesitate to work with them again and would be more than happy to recommend Ruby to anyone"
Our research confirmed what the algorithms had initially highlighted. We were confident EREC Estates were due a reduction and got in touch.
The result:
Following our instruction, we begun conversations with Coventry on EREC's behalf; working to establish some finer details before submitting our application.
Roughly four weeks after submitting our application, we received confirmation from the council we had been successful. The result was a near 100% discount on EREC's rates historically and a fully 100% discount moving forward.
"Thanks to their work, we’ve been able to significantly reduce our business rates expenses, which has been a huge help to our operations"
One week later, EREC had a sizeable refund in their bank account and also confirmation their rates had been reduced to £0 moving forward.
What our client said:
"Excellent Service from Start to Finish! I had a great experience working with Ruby and the team. Everything was handled efficiently from start to finish. Thanks to their work, we’ve been able to significantly reduce our business rates expenses, which has been a huge help to our operations. I would not hesitate to work with them again and would be more than happy to recommend Ruby to anyone."
