Cleveland Property Investments Ltd, a micro-entity property developer incorporated in May 2016, has entered creditors' voluntary liquidation. The appointment was published in the London Gazette on 2 June 2026.

A creditors' voluntary liquidation is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order. It is the most common route into corporate insolvency in the UK.

The CVL came weeks after HMRC filed a winding-up petition against the company on 13 May 2026. A winding-up petition is a court filing asking a judge to impose compulsory liquidation. In this case, the company's members resolved to wind up voluntarily before that process could conclude.

The company

Cleveland Property Investments Ltd was incorporated on 28 May 2016 and carries SIC code 68320, which covers management of real estate on a fee or contract basis. The Gazette notice lists the registered office as Unit 8 The Priory, Priory Road, Wolston, Coventry, CV8 3FX and describes the nature of business as property development. The company filed its last accounts as a micro-entity, made up to 30 June 2025.

Geoff Hogg has been the sole director since incorporation on 28 May 2016 and remains in post.

Secured charges

Two secured charges against the company remain outstanding at Companies House. Lloyds Bank PLC holds a registered charge, created on 28 July 2017, over the freehold property known as 47-49 Linthorpe Road, Middlesbrough, TS1 5BS, comprised in title number TES24847.

The Council of the Borough of Middlesbrough holds a separate registered charge, created on 14 February 2018, over land at Riverside Park Road, Middlesbrough, described as the site of the proposed Teesside Advanced Manufacturing Park, registered under title number CE221141. Both charges rank ahead of unsecured creditors in any distribution of the company's assets.

The liquidation notice

No liquidator details were included in the notice extract available at the time of publication. The Gazette notice was published under category Appointment of Liquidators, notice code 2443. Creditors and other interested parties can view the full notice on the London Gazette website and the Companies House record for further detail.

Common questions

Are you owed money by Cleveland Property Investments Limited?

In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.

Did you work at Cleveland Property Investments Limited?

In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.

Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Cleveland Property Investments Limited?

Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.

Are you a director of a company connected to Cleveland Property Investments Limited?

Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
