a low maintenance investment property offering a consistent return
New to the market with Joules is this beautiful two bedroom semi-detached house in Heaton Mersey.
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-81910169.html
The house looks to be immaculate and is clearly a much loved home for somebody but it would also make a lovely addition to the rental market and be a great buy to let.
For an investor, it comes in at a very reasonable price at £240,000 and doesn’t look to need any work at all.
It would rent for circa £800.00pcm giving a return of 4%.
Although not the best return in the world, these houses tend to rent very easily, to a single professional or couple and therefore you would have a very consistent rental income with minimum void periods.
If you would like any help or advice with this, or any other investment property, please do give me a call on 0161 442 1118.

P.S – Dont forget, we are still offering our property management services absolutely FREE for the first 3 months
