Room to improve - Newport Pagnell 2 bed at £180k, yield of 5.3%

This property has been on the market for a month now, and although it is fairly tidy and modern there is still some scope for improvement, namely in tidying the front & rear gardens and more importantly fitting gas central heating throughout.
 
 
 
 
Offered for sale at around £180k, allow £5k for the renovations and it would then rent in such condition for around £825 PCM giving a yield of around 5.3%, and this would rent well to young families wanting to stay in the area where there is just not enough affordable housing for them. Growth wise, a house such as this would have sold for £152k 5 years ago, so this would be an 18% increase in value over that period, and in fact asking prices have now surpassed the peak of 2007, which means the market is now really moving in the right direction.
