Two-Bedroom Upper Flat Buy-to-Let Investment, Sold with Tenant In Situ

Guide Price: £79,000 · Home Report Value £100,000 A ready-made, income-producing two-bedroom upper flat in the established residential area of Laurieston, brought to auction with the tenant remaining in place. A genuinely hands-off addition to a portfolio or a strong entry point for a first-time investor. This is a tenant-in-situ sale. The property is sold subject to the existing tenancy and will not be offered with vacant possession. The tenancy is already in place and compliant, the tenant has been resident since September 2025, and the £900 pcm rent produces £10,800 per annum, a gross yield of approximately 13.7% at the £79,000 guide. With the Home Report valuing the flat at £100,000, the guide represents a £21,000 discount to open-market value, offering both immediate income and day-one equity. The property is sold as seen with all inventory items included. This purpose-built upper flat sits within a two-storey block with commercial premises at ground level, and dates from circa 1900. Extending to approximately 58 sq m, the accommodation comprises an entrance vestibule, hallway, living room, two bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. Heating is by way of a gas-fired combination boiler serving radiators throughout, with hot water on a direct demand basis, and the windows are replacement PVC-framed double-glazed units. The property currently holds an EPC rating of Band D and Council Tax Band B.
