A two bedroom mid terrace launched to the market earlier this week with a guide price of £125,000. Located in Cale Green in-between Stockport & Davenport train station this property would be in a perfect location for prospective tenants.

I’ve linked the Rightmove advert here so you can take a look at the full advert. According to the description the property has cellars below which is always a plus as its useful storage for tenants but also offers the opportunity to add value to the property by turning it into a usable space (if it isn’t already)

I would give a rental valuation of £700 pcm which would give you a rental yield of 6.72% if purchased for the guide price of £125,000 which is great. Give me a call on; 0161 474 8668 if you’d like to discuss buy to let opportunities further.

There is nothing better than having a safe and secure backyard that you can let your dog enjoy. Whilst it should never replace daily walks, it is great to allow your dog extra fresh air, an area for going to the toilet outside of walk times, an outdoor but secure space for training and it can provide them with extra enrichment.

To make sure that your dog can make the most of this space and to save you from worrying too much, especially if your dog is a notorious destroyer, it is important to doggy proof your backyard before you allow your dog access.

Spencer Harvey listed a two bedroom, ground floor apartment to the market on Tuesday with a guide price of £115,000. This would make a perfect buy to let and even benefits from a private garden.

With an ever changing industry and ever changing trends there are always going to be questions for your letting agent, i have highlighted some of the more frequent ones in this article.

One of the most common questions I get asked by Landlords is whether they should offer there property as fully or part furnished. My Answer to this question changes depending on the property style & location.

If we were referring to a one bedroom apartment in the heart of Stockport Exchange i may lean towards a furnished option, The type of tenants attracted to this style of property is likely to be a young professional who perhaps hasn’t rented before, having a furnished property would mean lower out goings initially and perhaps a quicker let.

If it were a three bedroom semi i would tend to advise to go for an unfurnished property as you are likely going to attract a small family who have lived privately elsewhere prior to there next let. They have likely accumulated furniture over this period and in most cases would like to bring this furniture with them.

Each let is different and each landlord has a different approach, if you’d like further advice on anything buy to let related call me on; 0161 474 8668.
