Superb! Emerson Valley 2 bed with conservatory, £215k with 5% yield

For those of you that want to buy a 'ready to let, straight out of the box' property, then this one could be just what you've been waiting for.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generously specified, with 2 double bedrooms, a conservatory and a beautiful appointed kitchen, what more could you possibly do to improve this property? At a very realistic asking price of £215k for what you get, you would just run a duster around, sort out the legal compliances that all rental properties require and get your first tenants in. Likely to be a young professional couple ready to start a family in the next year or two, they would see great value at £895 PCM here because they know they will get a well sorted, high quality property that has clearly been loved and made to feel homely. I am certain that anyone walking through the door of this house would be suitably impressed, and would be able to see exactly where the money has been spent. This size of house represents the peak of demand locally, and over the preceding 4 weeks there were 66,910 searches that would have shown this house to potential applicants - clearly, there is strong demand for such a home today, and this will continue for the foreseeable future.

Perfect for the train - Bletchley Park 3 bed house, £235k with 5.4% yield

How about this lovely 3 bed family sized home, within walking distance of the west coast main line station at Bletchley, and built on the prestigious Bletchley Park development - what an address!

 

For sale right now at £235k, we would expect this to rent for around £1050 now that we are in a strong new year market with lots of activity. Offering space for a family and also great transport links, something like this won't hang around for long, so don't delay and make an appointment to view this. We can't comment on the internal condition as there are no photos at this stage, so do ask if there is already a tenancy in place and if so look at the terms, current rental amount and take good note of the condition of the property and any outstanding repairs or maintenance.

Back again! Unusual freehold 2 bed coach house with garage and garden, £190k with 5.5% yield

Todays offering is essentially a semi-detached first floor flat, with garage, driveway and private rear garden, and all FREEHOLD.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It looks like all the major work you would need to have done has already been taken care of - gas central heating, double glazing are sought after at this level of the market, where it would be more typical to see electric heating and older wooden windows. And where else would you get a flat with a garage and a garden, it's virtually unheard of!

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the market today at £190k, I would get along without delay and speak to the agent about viewing this. If it were to go on to the rental market at this time, we would expect to be able to rent this for around £875 PCM which represents a yield of 5.5%, pretty healthy for a non-project property in a quiet, residential cul-de-sac. For the 68,200 applicants looking to rent a 2 bedroom apartment such as this during the last month, this would have been a very interesting and unusual proposition which they could not have imagined was out there.

Broughton 3 bed townhouse, £235k with 5.6% yield

Another family sized home for you today, located on the modern estate of Broughton which offers great access to the M1 and has great local schools for all ages.

 

 

  

 

Offered with tenants in place, this really is only ever going to appeal to landlords or investors anyway, and the benefit here is that there will be positive cash flow right from the moment you become the property owner. Do enquire as to the current tenancy terms (length & rental income) and of course check the internal condition, the state of the boiler, age of the flooring and decoration, as the tenants may well think that a new landlord will be automatically looking to update the property - you may well need to, and it may be that in order to do this you have to bring the tenancy to an end and have an empty property for a few weeks, but at that point you would list it for rental at around £1100 PCM which is a 5.6% yield. We can also advise you with regards to your assumed responsibilities once you take over the tenancy, along with the most cost effective way of refurbishing and keeping it up to date in order to attract the best tenants.

Family home in Pennyland, 3 beds £235k, 5.6% yield

Our suggestion today is a nicely presented 3 bed family home on Pennylands, with plenty of space for a young family.

 

 

 

 

 

 

With 3 decent sized bedrooms, a beautiful kitchen and family bathroom, downstairs WC and a spacious and private rear garden, this is very well appointed for the price point and represents good value in todays market for an investment landlord - with the best 2 bed houses commanding a very similar price, this is sure to be snapped up quite quickly. Offered for sale at £235k, I would see if there is any room for a deal to be done this side of Christmas for a few thousand pounds off, and this could be on the rental market in the early part of 2016 for around £1100 PCM, a very respectable 5.6% yield.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Family 3 bed houses are great long term rental options, as families tend to stay for a number of years once they have their children settled into local schools, and this particular property looks well kept and updated by its current owners, which bodes well for future maintenance issues. With over 65,400 searches on Rightmove last  month for a property such as this, you can be sure it will be in high demand and will be on a lot of shortlists for viewings when it goes on to the rental market.

Great family home in Emerson Valley, reduced to £240k now with 5.5% yield

This one is another of those great family homes on a lovely street on a popular estate, with excellent local schools - everything a family wants.

 

 

 

 

 

 

On sale today for a reduced price of around £240k, for a house in this location it does make a lot of sense to invest in one that will cater for a long term family as the local secondary school at Shenley Brook End is highly rated, and with an anticipated rental of around £1100 this returns a yield of 5.5% which is currently a great return on such a property. With local parks and woodland walks, along with an extensive local shopping centre at Westcroft, all that a family needs is available locally, and the quality of the housing stock makes this a very comfortable and safe place to live.

 

 

 

UPDATE:  THIS HAS JUST BEEN REDUCED BY £10K TO £240K WHICH MAKES EVEN MORE SENSE FOR AN INVESTOR

Oakhill 4 bed townhouse, Hazeley secondary catchment, reduced to £265k with 5.7% yield

Families with growing children in their teens need a lot of space, and this one really delivers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Located on a quiet estate, but opposite a hive of activity on Grange Farm which has shops, takeaways and a range of great schools, this property offers 3 floors of space and 4 good sized bedrooms, and the children can be at a number of local schools within just a few minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Offered for sale at the now reduced price of £265k, this is surely a lot of house for the money, and any tenant family will be happy to put down roots and stay here for the duration of their children's school career. With an expected yield of around 5.7% there is a decent return to be had here, along with the potential of longer term capital growth which should be the real winner here on a property of this size, having already increased in value by over 26% since 2008 when you could have bought this for just £210k.

Family 3 bed home in Monkston, £235k with 5.1% yield

At the moment, yields are taking a battering due to the rise in property resale prices, but they will always bounce back, so buy the best house you can that will meet demand in the market, that's one of the best ways to future proof your investment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This property is located on the popular and family friendly Monkston estate, served by fantastic local schools accommodating all ages from 4-18 years, with a huge range of shopping and restaurants across the road at Kingston. Offered for sale at £235k, the property would benefit from a light tidying (especially the gardens) and some new flooring here and there, but it could then be on the busy new year rental market for £995 PCM, a yield of 5.1%, but remember that as rents rise so will your return, and being a magnet for growing families, this house will always rent with ease. Last month there were 1,123 searches in the Monkston area alone for a property such as this, with 68,664 across the wider town for the same house - high numbers which demonstrate just how strong the demand is from families to be in nice locations with good schools.

Superb value 2 bed house in Stantonbury Fields, £180k with 5.7% yield

It's currently a struggle to buy a decent 2 bed house for under £200k, so this one could be worth another look, and with tenants in place you at least have an income while you decide what to do with it......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Located on the doorstep of a private school, and on a small development of modern houses just a mile north of the city centre, this house offers quite a lot for it's relatively small purchase price. If it was remarketed now, I would suggest a paint throughout to neutralise some of the colours, weed and sweep the front and rear garden, and generally just tidy up any rough edges here and there. Typically today, this would rent for around £850 PCM which is a very decent 5.7% yield, as it has an adjacent garage and still 2 off road parking places which are very important considerations these days.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You would need to enquire as to the length of the existing tenancy and the current rent being paid, but this house will not really appeal to private buyers as they would be seeking vacant possession and it appears the current landlord does not want to provide that - as an investor, this sort of purchase makes a lot of sense, as your income starts the minute you complete therefore bringing your void (empty) period down to zero. We let one in this street earlier in the year and it did not take long at all, with it being centrally located and very accessible for city centre workers as well as commuters who can easily reach the A5 from here.

Tidy 2 bed terrace - Emerson Valley, £197.5k with a 5.2% yield

Prices for decent 2 bed houses are rising rapidly, and this one represents great value today so please read on.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the market today at £197.5k, there is no chain with this one so you could potentially have this bought and ready to hit the very buoyant new year rental market, when there will be even more people looking to move house once Christmas is over and done. There is only the one photo to go by, so do go and have a good look inside, but never be scared of a little bit of paintwork or fitting some new flooring, this work lasts for years and makes any property more 'lettable'. With an expected rent of around £850 PCM, this would generate a yield of 5.2% and be extremely popular with potential tenants.

A nice reduction! 3 bed in Bletchley, was £230k now £215k

It's back, with a nice price reduction - this 3 bedroom house has been on the market since August and is now offered at a lower price of £215k (down from £230k), it surely has to be worth another look. Here is what we said recently......




Good family homes need a few ingredients to make them work, and we think this one works quite well so do read on....

 

 

 

 

 

 

Schools are always important, and here you have a selection of first schools within a stones throw of the property, and for secondary schools you have the option of Lord Grey which is also just a short walk up Rickley Lane. How this works for the adults in the family is that you can also walk into the centre of Bletchley and the train station, so commuting to work will not be as big a chore as it could be (think about the free parking at home for a start).

 

 

 

 

 

For sale right now (and it has been on the market for almost 3 months) at £230k, it has to be worth an offer, but even at full price you could still make this work as a buy-to-let investment purchase, showing a yield of around 5.2-5.4% in the rental market at this time. With such a well presented property there would not be much to do here to prepare it for rental, and families that we regularly talk to are looking for houses such as this - Bletchley might not be for you, but for the 34,000 or so local inhabitants that call it home, it will most certainly appeal.

UPDATE: At the new price of £215k and with a rental value of £950-995 this will still return a yield of at least 5.3-5.6%.

Modern 3 bed townhouse in Broughton, £270k with 5.3% yield

The family sized house today is on the newer part of Broughton, just opposite the brand new Brooklands development, and offers the usual benefits of the area - easy access to the motorway, on the doorstep of Kingston local centre, and still within a short distance of Central Milton Keynes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

For sale today at £270k, this 3 storey townhouse benefits from 3 bathrooms, 3 good sized bedrooms and a modern, fresh design and internal finish. With an expected rental or around £1200 PCM, this would show a yield of 5.3% and is really well placed in one of the most vibrant and growing areas of the town. Commuters love the easy access to the M1, and there are several brand new schools either already online or about to open, all within a short walk of the property, and Oakgrove Secondary comes with one of the very best reputations in the area for older children.
