An excellent investment opportunity to acquire this three-bedroom semi-detached home, offered for sale by auction and currently sold tenanted at £550 PCM on a periodic month-to-month agreement.
The property is currently let to a long-standing tenant (family friend of the vendor), with rent paid on time and fully up to date. The tenant is aware that the property is being sold and that the current rent is below market value.
Investment Highlights
Current rental income: £550 PCM (£6,600 per annum)
Tenancy: Periodic (month-to-month rolling agreement)
Market rental potential: Circa £900+ PCM
Tenant payment history: No arrears – rent up to date
Flexible exit strategy: Increase rent in line with market value or obtain vacant possession to refurbish and resell
This presents a strong opportunity for investors seeking either immediate yield with scope for uplift, or a value-add refurbishment project with resale potential.

Condition & Potential
