BUY-TO-LET DEAL OF THE WEEK: 3 bedroom house in Chichester, £299,950, 4.6% yield

3 bed house, Newlands Lane, Chichester, West Sussex kitchen lounge

Summary:
3 bedroom house in Chichester
Listed for sale on 19/03/18 @ £299,950
Rent = £1,150pcm
Yield = 4.6%
Last sold in 2010 for £220,000 (+36% in 8 years)


This property on the Parklands estate in Chichester will make a wonderful family home - be it for owner-occupiers or for tenants, who will likely be paying £1,150pcm to rent this three-bedroom house, which comes with an asking price of £299,950.

That asking price is a 36% increase from the £220,000 the current owners paid in 2010. That may sound like a large increase, but properties in Chichester have increased by 43% on average in that time, and I've seen similar houses on the Parklands estate for well in excess of £300,000, so I think this good-sized home offers great value.

I often mention Parklands as a highly-desirable area within Chichester for families due to the excellent nearby schools (Parklands Primary & Bishop Luffa), so when investing in this particular area it makes sense to focus on family homes (rather than small flats).

For prospective landlords, that £1,150pcm rental income would mean a 4.6% rental return based on paying the full asking price - which is a strong yield in Chichester for a freehold property.

Considering it's good proportions (large lounge, good sized kitchen with an additional room next to it, two double bedrooms and a large single) and it's excellent condition (neutral décor, modern kitchen and bathroom) it would make a great purchase. There's little to nothing that needs doing, the house comes with the almost obligatory-nowadays double glazing and gas central heating, so it's ready to move into or start earning an income from right away.
