14% + yield on Falkirk 1 bed flat


Sometimes if you wait, good things happen!  I have been watching this property for a bit now and the price was reduced last week to make it a good value buy.

Today’s buy to let opportunity is a 1 bed, flat on Main Street, Camelon.


Starting with the negatives.  The property is on the busy Camelon main street above a row of shops and it has a shower room rather than a bathroom .... so it is not instinctively attractive.  However, and it is a bit however, the flat is in ‘ready to rent’ condition and it is now on the market for a fixed price of .... wait for it ...... £28,000. 

Doing the maths. The flat will rent for £325 pcm which gets you to a 14% yield.  At this sort of price and yield, the flat is definitely worth a look but I would be quick as the new lower price means that I expect it to be snapped up quickly.

One final thought, most banks have minimum mortgage levels of, say, £40,000 so the property is likely to attract cash buyers.
