Why This Property Stands Out
- Fully Compliant HMO
Licence submitted September 2025; council sign-off received. All fire safety, planning and amenity standards met. Peace of mind for investors.
- Turnkey Condition
High-end refurbishment and full furnishing mean zero capital expenditure post-purchase. Start earning immediately.
- Strong Local Demand
St Helens has a growing population of professionals, contractors, and students seeking quality shared accommodation. HMOs fill a vital gap in the market.
- Flexible Rent Bands
With rents ranging from £425 to £575 per room, there’s scope to target different tenant profiles and adjust pricing to market demand.
- Long Lease Security
999-year lease dating from 1880 — rare, effectively long-term ownership without short lease issues.
HMO Demand in St Helens
- Demand for shared accommodation continues to rise due to affordability pressures and strong local employment opportunities.
- Average rents in St Helens have risen by around 9-10% in the past year, outpacing many surrounding areas.
- HMOs in WA10 are in short supply compared with demand from young professionals and key workers, resulting in high occupancy and low void rates.
Capital Appreciation Potential
- Property Values: Average prices in WA10 have risen by over 30% in the past five years and continue to climb steadily.
- Rental Growth: St Helens rents have increased by around 50% over the last five years, with further growth forecast.
- Upside: A refurbished, high-quality HMO is well-positioned to outperform local averages on both capital appreciation and rental yields.
Location Highlights
- Situated on Dentons Green Lane – a sought-after part of St Helens with easy access to amenities, transport links, and local employers.
- Excellent commuter links to Liverpool, Manchester, and Warrington, plus proximity to M62 and A580.
- Local shops, gyms, and services nearby make this an attractive area for tenants.
