Property

UK property work, done on your stack

Carina stays general-purpose. Enable the property-uk pack when you need deal maths, compliance checks, and UK-specific terminology; not a generic chatbot answer.

Who it is for

UK investors, deal sourcers, and portfolio operators who repeat the same analysis and compliance steps across viewings and acquisitions.

Problem it solves

Yield runs, HMO rule checks, and area due diligence usually mean spreadsheets, PDFs, and tab switching. Carina runs the workflow and saves files you can review.

Outputs you get

  • BRR and yield calculations (gross/net)
  • HMO compliance checklists and area scoring memos
  • Deal briefs and notes written to disk via file tools
  • RAG-backed answers from the ingested UK property corpus when pgvector is set up

Config and integrations

  • ACTIVE_SKILL_PACKS=property-uk or carina install-pack property-uk
  • PostgreSQL 16 + pgvector; run pnpm ingest (needs GEMINI_API_KEY for embeddings)
  • Optional: PROPERTY_DATA_API_KEY, LAND_REGISTRY_API_KEY for pack lookup tools
  • Production monitoring: Labyrinth Scout (separate product)

Example workflow

  1. You ask Carina to run the HMO compliance skill on a six-bed in Portsmouth.
  2. Carina loads the hmo-compliance-check skill, pulls RAG context from the property corpus, and drafts a room-size and licensing checklist.
  3. Result is saved as a markdown file under your project output folder for your review.

"Use the HMO compliance check skill for a 6-bed in Portsmouth and save the checklist to ./deals/portsmouth-6bed.md"
