This blog follows the property market in Northampton with a particular emphasis on buy-to-let. On here you'll find general commentary about the market, plus properties that may represent decent buys. I own a large estate agency in Northampton and am myself a landlord with an established portfolio. If you're looking to invest, but are unsure what will work best, I'm happy to offer a (free) second opinion. If you have a property to sell I can help with that too!

Modern 3 bed, £125k, £625 rent = Good Bet

Apologies for rubbish picture quality.

Just advertised by a town centre agent - this is a modern three bed that look as if it needs no more than cosmetic work to get it ready for rental. The basics seem to have been done with gas central heating and upvc double glazing and once tarted a bit (we will assist), this will rent for at least £625 in the current market. 

If you're aiming for a freehold property, below stamp duty (and I'm guessing this property is aimed at £125k), and are put off Victorian Terraces by the potential for hidden problems, the world is by no means your oyster! As such something like this should feature prominently in your thought process. It will attract the first time buyers too though, so be quick.
