A straightforward buy-to-let opportunity in Motherwell offered with an immediate income stream. The freehold end-of-terrace currently lets for £850pcm and is presented with tenants in situ, so a purchaser will inherit the existing tenancy and immediate cashflow. Local sales evidence in the ML1 area supports upside on capital value.
The property includes two bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, modern bathroom and a private garden plus a garage. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and there is no flooding risk. There is stated scope to increase rent toward £900–£1,000pcm with modest improvements or re-letting at renewal.
Buyers should note this lot will be sold at auction and the sale will be to a new owner with the tenancy intact. The wider area is described as very deprived, which can affect long-term capital growth and tenant profiles. Council tax is very cheap, which supports affordability for tenants but reflects local market conditions.
This is best suited to investors seeking immediate yield and short-term uplift through active management or light refurbishment. The property’s simple traditional layout and existing rental income make it a low-complexity purchase, but factor in auction timescales and the obligations of buying a tenanted freehold.
