Buy-To-Let Success with a Property in Meadowfield Crescent

Book Valuation

Karen was looking to add to her property portfolio with something that would be sought-after and on the outskirts of Congleton town centre with the help of our letting agents.

The Situation

Karen acquired the property through a reputable local Estate Agent and wanted a dedicated lettings agent in the area to find a suitable tenant as shortly after completion as possible.

The Client’s Objective

The clear objective was to find a long term tenant that was going to enjoy the property and the local amenities of Astbury.  As it is a buy-to-let property the goal is to earn a decent return on the purchase price whilst having a property that is relatively low maintenance.  At the time of purchase the property was 10 years old.

Our Solution

The key to our Belvoir office of letting agents in Congleton was good marketing, so we took professional photos and did an accompanying video to not only showcase the property but to talk about the local Meadowfield Crescent area.

What It Meant To Them

Although we didn’t achieve the £1,200 per calendar month rent we intended, the first tenancy was agreed at £1,100 per calendar month for an initial 12 month tenancy.  On a purchase price of £320,000 this represents a solid 4.1% gross rental yield.  The scope for capital appreciation is good too. And, of course, the rent can be increased in line with prevailing inflation after 12 months.

The Timing

From purchase completion on 4th November 2022 a tenant was installed on 9th January 2023 so, given the time of year, was a very good turnaround to help keep the void period to a minimum.

The Value To The Customer

It was important for Karen to get a reliable tenant installed with little fuss in a short a time as possible to start earning on her investment.  Our letting agents had a few viewings initially but the tenant we selected fitted our strict criteria the best and wanted it with a view to long term.  Any property investor will tell you that the two most important things are that the rent is being paid and void periods are no longer that what’s absolutely necessary.
