2 bedroom apartment in Ashland for £179,950, with a potential 6% yield

For sale today is a 2 bedroom apartment in the newly redeveloped area of Ashland. The apartment is less then 5 years old and therefore will come with a reasonable lease length and is offered with no onward chain.
The property is on the market for £179,950 and appears to be in relatively good decorative order, however from the photos it appears that there is holes in the walls between the lounge and one of the bedrooms, which will need repairing before a tenant moves in. This property will appeal to young families and professional tenants with its two double bedrooms, allocated parking and its close proximity to the Open University and Hospital. Once the works were completed, you would be looking to achieve a rental return of between £875pcm and £900pcm, which would see a healthy gross yield of between 5.8% and 6%.

Great flat for professionals in Broughton for £194k

This apartment is situated perfectly for young professionals who work in the local industries or central Milton Keynes and even has its own little garden space!
This property looks to still be in great condition, not too tired or worn out and maybe just in need of a quick clean before going on to the rental market. For sale at £194,000, this 2 bedroom flat with its own garden, would look to achieve approximately £900pcm. The only thing stopping me giving it a higher rental value is the size of the second bedroom. At this rent you are look at a good gross yield of 5.5%.

Investment opportunity, 2 bedroom house in Bletchley for £190k

Todays property is a 2 bedroom mid terrace house, with ready made investment potential, located in the racecourses estate on the edge of Bletchley, with a tenant already in situ.

The details of this are a bit thin on the ground and no internal photos, but if you speak with the agent I'm sure they can advise you on such things as the state of the boiler, internal decoration, any outstanding repairs and of course arrange an internal viewing for you. It is on sale for offers over £190,000, but with a current rental of £695pcm, this would achieve a relatively low gross yield of approximately 4.3%. However similar properties in the area have rented for up to £825pcm, which would return a much healthier yield of 5.2%, making this a much more attractive investment opportunity.
