The founders of Addington Capital, Martin Roberts and Matthew Allen have recruited Matt Pears as the new Operations Director of AddLiving, Addington’s sister residential lettings and management business.

 

Matt joins AddLiving from Wildheart Residential Management Ltd where he was a Property Director.  Wildheart RML manages 1,000 AST units and 4,000 Leasehold units across the country on behalf of corporate and individual clients. Matt was responsible for the operational performance of the tenanted, block and letting management, which included major works, compliance, onboarding and bespoke projects. He had additional direct responsibility for Building Safety Fund projects and the implementation of Building Safety Act legislation across the portfolio.

 

Matt also had responsibility for the management and development of the property management teams based in Surrey, Eastbourne, Liverpool and Nottingham. 

 

Before joining Wildheart RML in 2016, Matt was a Senior Property Manager at Grainger PLC for over 10 years.

 

AddLiving was set up in 2018 as a management and leasing platform for large PRS sites and portfolios in Greater London. AddLiving has its own website and web-based management and leasing portal.  It is an independent company capable of taking on third party mandates.

 

Martin Roberts, Director, said, “We are delighted to welcome Matthew to spearhead our residential lettings and management business.  He has a strong track record and experience which will enhance our property management expertise.”

 

“Addington has a history of both acquiring existing residential properties with its JV partners and converting other use classes into residential property.  We have acquired or built over 2,800 residential properties in many major towns and cities across the UK since we set up the business.*” 

 

Matthew Allen, Director, continued, “Addington is looking to acquire further residential property portfolios with our JV partners, including further PRS schemes. Having our own residential management and lettings platform gives us the control we need to ensure the delivery of successful investment strategies in the residential sector.”
