Our mission
There are so many property development companies out there, but none that create true communities – and we mean worker communities, living communities, and investor communities.
Our mission is to become an innovator of commercial properties by creating shared spaces that result in positive returns for our investors, and positive social change for the communities we exist in. We set out to become an integral part of the communities we operate in, leaving a positive mark through refurbishing and enhancing old properties, and through encouraging local entrepreneurship and knowledge-sharing.
We want to create innovative investment opportunities that truly deliver value, and communities that are built to achieve lasting success.
What our clients are saying
I was looking for something which would produce better yields than the much poorer yields I was getting from some investments I already had in London and couldn’t be more pleased.
Zakia Haque
What a very successful and hassle-free experience we had in purchasing our very first investment from them.
Teppo Suominen
Nao have always paid my dividends on time and have been very approachable. Now that I have decided to withdraw, they have been cooperative.
Pratiti De
I invested with Nao for two reasons, they find incredible properties that give back a good return to the investor and the trust factor. You can do all the due diligence you want, yet it all comes down to who you are investing with.
Joe Healy
I have been one of the first investors with Nao for over a year now. I am impressed by the level of professionalism from the whole team, and very happy with the level of customer support I am receiving. My monthly returns have been paid exactly on time as part of an extremely transparent process. I would definitely recommend investing with Nao to my colleagues, friends and family.
