Tenancy Position

Lease Terms

• Income from day one – a tenant is already in place and up to date on payments, removing void risk and re-letting costs
• Strong gross yield – approximately 6.6% at the £155,000 asking price
• Peppercorn ground rent – just £10 per annum, a negligible cost against annual rental income
• Zero service charges – no shared building costs eroding net returns, unlike typical leasehold flats
• Three-bedroom house – strong appeal to family tenants, supporting tenancy stability and reducing turnover
• End-terrace position – typically commands a premium over mid-terrace equivalents due to additional light and reduced shared walls
• Resilient tenant demand – Huddersfield’s affordable price point and transport links make it consistently attractive to working tenants and families
• Low management overhead – house-style stock of this kind is typically easier and cheaper to maintain than flats or HMOs
• Simple exit strategy – three-bedroom terraced houses appeal to both investors and owner-occupiers, supporting liquidity at resale
