Two income streams so risk is diversified: if one flat becomes vacant, the other still produces.
-
Recent refurbishments reduce immediate capital expenditure.
-
Title consolidation in progress – simplifying legal/management structure and possibly increasing resale value.
-
Affordable entry for investors – purchase price of £210,000 is competitive versus existing averages, yet with scope for rental increases.
-
Strong capital growth trend in this postcode (+50-60% over 5 years), meaning upside on resale.
-
Area becoming more appealing: proximity to local amenities, transport links, and increasing demand for rentals in this segment.
Potential Upside / What to Look for
-
Small increases in rent when leases renew could enhance income. Even modest uplift (say 3-5%) in each flat would improve yield and cash flow.
-
As area becomes more desirable, demand for well-refurbished units like these tends to rise, allowing for premium rents / faster letting.
-
Once title deeds are unified, resale becomes cleaner and more attractive to future buyers (esp. investors or end-users).
-
Possible capital improvements: internal upgrades, energy efficiency, cosmetic refreshes that cost little but add value.
