A Visionary in Property Development

Richard Burke

Originally from the Peak District, Richard Burke is a seasoned professional with over two decades of experience in property development and residential landlordship. His strategic prowess and commitment to excellence have led to the creation of a property portfolio valued at nearly £2 million, primarily focused on delivering high-quality family homes in Buckinghamshire.

Notable Achievements

In his most recent project, Richard undertook the ambitious transformation of a Grade 2 listed commercial office into a residential masterpiece in central London. Overcoming challenges such as Red route restrictions, and limited access in the heart of London, he collaborated closely with the council and conservation officer. This remarkable achievement was realized despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, and it stood alongside three other complete house renovations in the same year.

Future Ventures

Currently in the planning stages for a riverfront property along the River Ouse in Cambridgeshire, Richard is poised to design and construct another exceptional home. This upcoming project underscores his unwavering commitment to continuous innovation in property development.

Finance and Investor Relations

He has cultivated relationships to raise private finance from investors, providing them opportunities for substantial returns on investment.

Mission and Ethos

Richard's mission is to challenge the reliance on corporate financial institutions and offer private investors alternative opportunities for substantial returns. His ethos revolves around personal and financial investment in every property development project, ensuring success within budget and on time.

Beyond property ventures, Richard is a certified life coach with a profound interest in personal development.

Personal Touch and Family Values

A family man with a passion for travel and a deep love for all things related to property, Richard's commitment to leading by example is evident in his investment philosophy. He wouldn't invest in a property unless he could envision living in it. Richard's honesty and profit-sharing mindset set him apart from corporate financial institutions dominating the industry.

Collaboration with Matt Lidbetter

Inspired by the success of his own projects, Richard has teamed up with Matt Lidbetter, a seasoned professional with firsthand experience in multi-million-pound developments. Together, they've founded Raven Homes, driven by a shared mission to innovate and transform disused spaces into new homes. Their collective expertise spans commercial conversions and new builds, positioning Raven Homes as a formidable force in the dynamic realm of property development.
