Build a Lettings Business Designed for Today’s Rental Market
Sourced Living gives you more ways to grow than a traditional high-street letting agency. Through our Flexi-Let model, you can offer traditional lettings alongside mid-term accommodation, serviced accommodation and HMOs.
You can build your portfolio organically or, unlike a traditional franchise, Sourced can fund the purchase of an established lettings or estate agency for you to take over and grow.
No previous lettings experience is required. You bring the ambition; we provide the platform, systems and support.
More Ways to Let. More Ways to Grow.
Traditional high-street agents often rely on one model: finding a tenant and managing a standard long-term tenancy.
Sourced Living Partners can offer more.
Our Flexi-Let model allows you to meet a wider range of landlord and tenant needs through:
- Traditional residential lettings
- Mid-term accommodation
- Serviced accommodation
- HMOs
- Property sales
Start from Scratch or Step into an Established Business
Most new business owners spend years building their customer base and recurring income.
With Sourced Living, you can launch organically using the Flexi-Let model or step straight into an established agency through our Assisted Acquisitions Programme.
Sourced can fund the purchase of an approved lettings or estate agency for you to take over and grow.
That could mean managed properties, landlord relationships, recurring revenue, an established local presence and even an experienced team already in place.
Build organically. Acquire an existing business. Or combine both routes to grow faster.
Real Businesses. Real Results.
John completed a £450,000 agency acquisition just 49 days after joining Sourced Living. Funded by Sourced, the business included 262 managed properties and £293,000 in annual turnover.
Dan acquired an established two-branch agency with around 200 managed properties, an existing team and approximately £150,000 in annual management income.
Sara built her business organically, generating £40,000 in turnover during her first nine months before preparing for a funded acquisition.
These are real Sourced Living Partners using different routes to build valuable property businesses.
Built on Real Property Experience
Founder Steve Moss built his own lettings agency from the ground up, growing it to six offices before selling it in 2008.
He later founded Sourced to give other entrepreneurs access to the backing, systems and opportunities that can be difficult to create alone.
Today, Sourced combines property expertise, funding, technology and professional support with a nationwide network of more than 250 Partners.
You are building your own business, but you are not building it alone.
More Than Training and a Logo

Exciting double acquisition for Sourced Living’s newest franchisees!
Sourced Living is delighted that just weeks after completing their induction training two new franchisees have completed on the fully funded acquisition of two well-established independent agencies, with a combined total of almost 500 managed properties.
Dan Molkenthin and John Clark completed their induction training in February and were both immediately on the acquisition trail to buy established independent agencies. Thanks to the Sourced Living Assisted Acquisition Programme, Dan quickly completed on Crucible Homes, which has offices in Wickersley and Chapeltown and in the coming weeks will be rebranded to Sourced Living Rotherham. John Clark is the new owner of Nationwide Estate Agents in Adlington – destined to become Sourced Living Chorley.
“I would like to offer my sincere congratulations to Dan and John, who are both ambitious entrepreneurs with a passion for property, as well as having the commercial background and skills needed to ensure their acquisitions succeed,” says Sourced CEO and founder Stephen Moss.
“Sourced has developed a superb Assisted Acquisition Programme, which can provide full funding for property businesses that fit our investment criteria. Having access to full funding gives our franchisees a huge advantage and this is a very exciting time for the Sourced Living brand. I can confirm that we currently have an acquisition pipeline of approximately £10 million, which will ensure that more new and existing franchisees can take advantage of our successful business model and receive the necessary support for accelerated growth.”
John Clark, who prior to joining Sourced Living had a 30-year career in project management says: “My background provided me with a lot of transferrable skills to take on this acquisition. I’ve always been interested in property and have owned several rental properties abroad and in the UK, and I’m delighted that this acquisition opportunity came up so quickly. Nationwide Estate Agency is a very well-established business, with 270 fully managed properties, plus a team of three people, which includes the previous owner, who have all been very welcoming. We recently held an open day for landlords and tenants, and the response was incredibly positive.
“It’s great to be part of the Sourced Living franchise network, and to have completed on an acquisition at the same time as Dan. I have absolutely no regrets and would definitely recommend it as a great business opportunity.”
Dan Molkenthin, who has a background in recruitment and sales, says: “I’ve always had a passion for property, and had known of Sourced Living for some time. I knew the brand was doing well and decided that a franchise was a great opportunity for me to enjoy being a business owner, with all the support I needed to ensure compliance.
“Crucible Homes does estate agency and lettings, and currently has 212 properties under full management, so I’ve really hit the ground running! I’ve inherited a team of eight people, and I’m actively looking to recruit more.
“It’s amazing that this acquisition came to life so quickly. The level of support and belief behind the Assisted Acquisitions Programme really sets Sourced Living apart – there’s always someone on the end of the phone if I need them. It’s not just about starting a business; this is about accelerating ownership and growth from day one. We are looking forward to moving to new offices in a few weeks, when the business will rebrand to Sourced Living Rotherham.”
Sarah Byrne, Sourced Living Brand Manager, says: “Watching franchisees who only joined us in February, with no previous industry experience, now heading up their own agency through the power of acquisition, the support of the Sourced Living team and the power of franchising, is exactly why I believe so strongly in this model. In these particular cases the acquisitions were 100% funded, creating genuinely life-changing opportunities and showing what’s possible when strong commercial people are given the right platform and support.”
Having recently set up my Sourced Living franchise, I have been really pleased with the organisation and professionalism shown by the team. Adding a lettings platform to my existing property business really helps us progress as a business.
I appreciate the support that is always available—everyone is informative and genuinely helpful. Sourced fosters a positive environment where growth is encouraged! It’s been a great place to learn and feel supported in my career.
