Main Office
Welcome to Propertynest Leeds North
Hello, I’m Paul Lenihan, owner of Propertynest Leeds North.
I’ve lived in North Leeds for almost 20 years and currently live in Oakwood with my young family. I have deep roots in the area alongside extensive local knowledge and a genuine passion for property across North Leeds and the surrounding areas.
I set up Propertynest after recognising the growing need for a more modern estate agency; one that challenges the tired stereotype of the traditional, volume driven high street model.
At Propertynest, our residential sales offering is driven by uncompromising service - we prioritise quality of service over volume of transactions. We are a low volume agency by design, allowing every client to receive a far more personal, responsive and tailored experience.
From the very first meeting to the final handshake, you deal with one dedicated agent throughout the entire process. This creates a much more cohesive experience for both sellers and buyers, whilst allowing us to dedicate more time to:
The quality of your home’s marketing
Exceptional photography and presentation
Conducting highly informative viewings
Strong negotiation to achieve the best possible price
Alongside residential sales, Propertynest also offers a range of landlord and investor services, including bespoke property sourcing typically focused around buy-to-let investment opportunities under £150,000.
We also provide a highly hands on property management service. Unlike many of the larger high street chains, where properties are often passed between different departments and transient staff members, every managed property at Propertynest is personally overseen by myself.
As a fellow property investor, I understand the importance of thoroughly vetted tenants, proactive maintenance, compliance and protecting long term asset value. I take a huge amount of pride in managing properties as if they were my own.
Why Work With Propertynest to sell your home?
When you work with Propertynest, you are working directly with the business owner; somebody who is personally invested in each and every sale.
I don't earn a single penny unless your property sells, that means I am highly driven, highly accountable and completely invested in achieving the best possible outcome for every client I work with.
Unlike the traditional high street model, where negotiators are often juggling huge workloads and working standard office hours, Propertynest is deliberately designed to be a low volume, service led agency focused on quality over quantity.
What You Can Expect
One dedicated point of contact from start to finish
Direct communication with the business owner throughout
Low volume approach allowing more time spent on your sale
Professional photography and videography
High quality marketing focused on presentation and storytelling
Advertising across Rightmove, Zoopla, social media and buyer databases
Evening and weekend availability
Highly responsive communication, often via WhatsApp groups
Strong negotiation focused on maximising sale price
Honest, data driven valuations grounded in comparable evidence
Proactive sales progression to keep deals moving
No sale, no fee
Why Pricing Strategy Matters
One of the biggest mistakes sellers make is choosing the agent with the highest valuation rather than the best strategy.
At Propertynest, valuations are grounded in:
Comparable sold prices
Market trends
Buyer affordability
Property size and layout
Competition in the local market
This realistic and evidence led approach helps create strong early momentum, attract serious buyers quickly and gives properties the best chance of going under offer within a sensible timeframe.
Ultimately, our goal is simple...to provide a far more personal, proactive and transparent experience whilst achieving the strongest possible outcome for every client.
Professional Landlord Services From a Fellow Property Investor
As a landlord and property investor myself, I fully appreciate the responsibilities, pressures and challenges that come with managing investment properties. Like many landlords, I’ve personally experienced the frustrations of working with high street letting agents...rising fees year after year, declining service standards and the constant revolving door of staff managing your properties.
At Propertynest, we do things differently.
When you work with us, your properties are managed directly by somebody who genuinely understands property investment and who treats your assets with the same level of care and attention as their own portfolio.
Our Approach to Property Management
Property management today is about far more than simply collecting rent and organising maintenance. There are now hundreds of pieces of legislation landlords must comply with and the market has become even more complex following the introduction of the Renters Reform Bill and increasing regulation across the sector.
Our role is to:
Protect landlords from compliance risks
Ensure properties remain fully legally compliant
Find outstanding long term tenants
Protect the condition and long term value of your asset
Deliver a highly responsive and proactive management service
Our Landlord Services Include:
Fully managed lettings
Compliance management
Property maintenance coordination
Rent collection
Professional photography and portal marketing
Property sourcing for investors
Off market investment sales
Auction sales for landlords exiting the market
Selling Investment & Tenanted Properties
We understand that every landlord’s situation is different and sometimes the right decision is to exit the market entirely.
Whether you are looking to
Sell a tenanted property
Dispose of a problem property
Sell a non mortgageable property
Exit the rental market discreetly
Avoid the uncertainty of the open market
...we can help.
We regularly sell properties
Off market to pre qualified investors
With tenants in situ
Via auction for a quicker and more secure sale process
Whatever challenge you are facing as a landlord, we aim to provide a practical and realistic solution.
A Selective, Quality Driven Approach
I’m very selective about the landlords I work with. Propertynest is built around a quality over quantity model. I work with landlords who genuinely invest in their properties and who care about looking after their tenants properly.
Because ultimately, that is how you minimise issues, protect your investment and maintain a healthy longterm portfolio with stable, happy tenants.
Property Sourcing
I also specialise in sourcing investment opportunities across Leeds, typically focused around:
Buy-to-let properties under £150,000
Strong rental yield areas
High demand rental hotspots across the city
Opportunities offering cash flow and long-term growth
If you’re considering becoming a property investor, growing your portfolio, or selling an investment property discreetly off market, feel free to get in touch.
