What You're Buying

Engine Works delivers what resi BTL used to — without the stress, tax squeeze, or compliance trap.
Why Engine Works Beats Buy-to-Let Residential:
- Higher Yields – 7.1% gross return vs. 3–5% in typical resi BTL
- No Rent Caps or EPC C Deadline – Commercial units aren’t tied up in red tape
- SIPP-Compatible – Invest tax-efficiently through your pension
- Lower Stamp Duty – No 3% surcharge on commercial property
- More Stable Income – No void periods between short-term lettings
Use Your SIPP to Buy a Unit
You can purchase a commercial unit through your Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP), giving you full control over a tax-efficient investment. Rental income is free from income tax, and you won’t pay capital gains tax when you sell. The property is held within your pension, so all the returns stay within the SIPP, helping to grow your retirement fund faster. It’s fully HMRC-compliant, completely legitimate, and a smart move that more investors are beginning to recognise.
SIPP: How It Works
Use your SIPP to invest in commercial property.
Utilise your pension pot (100k+ sitting in a traditional fund or old company scheme).
Open a SIPP (Speak to your adviser or we will connect you to one).
Utilise your SIPP to buy a unit at Engine Works (Title held in the name of your pension).
Rent the unit to a business (Tenant pays market rent)
Decide whether to hold or sell the unit going forward (All gains inside the SIPP are CGT-free).
SIPP Property Investing
Investing through a SIPP offers clear benefits. Rental income is tax-free inside a SIPP, compared to 20-45% outside. Maintenance is generally low with new builds, while tenancy lengths are longer (3-5+ years vs. 6-12 months). Capital gains tax is also avoided inside a SIPP, unlike the 18-28% charged otherwise. Plus, SIPP investments face lighter regulation, making management simpler.
Why Now?
With only 59 units available and strong early interest, coastal towns are rising as businesses decentralise and local economies evolve. Engine Works offers yields you won’t find in London or residential markets without taking on big risks or spending heavily.
