Some good value here in Rugby too - this flat is in a really nice area that rents well - you'll get at least £550 for this 2 bed which seems to need little work. Ideal for those who like to play it safe! With an advertising price of just over 100% that's a return of 6.6%, which will still leave you with over 6% when service charges are factored in. It's about as cheap a property as you'll get if you're fussy over area!

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! Email richard.baker@belvoir.co.uk
