Cash buyers only - Old Stratford maisonette, £120k with 6.3% gross yield

Small yet perfectly formed, this 1 bedroom ground floor maisonette would make a fantastic starter property or nice addition to any portfolio, with ongoing high demand for similar rental properties locally.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Offered for sale at £120k cash only, this is because the lease will be too short to be able to mortgage against, likely to be around 60 years or so. For a canny cash buyer though, this could be a lovely little gem that could be smartened up for just a few thousand pounds, with the addition of more modern kitchen units, some new white goods, maybe look at the bathroom (no photos of this) and a quick lick of paint. With UPVC double glazed units already installed and a gas supply also connected, it is virtually all in place already, just needs a slight cosmetic lift.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
On the rental market right now, this would easily rent for £625 PCM, maybe even up to £650 PCM if literally everything was sorted including fitting an efficient gas boiler. This would yield at least a 6.3% gross return, far better than having the cash in the bank - plus, do look into the price of renewing the lease, because it could well be viable and would certainly add to the resale value in the future when you come to dispose of this.
