Investment lot with immediate rental income and a very long lease.
Fifth-floor two-bedroom flat, 593 sq ft
Offered at auction with a low guide price, this fifth-floor two-bedroom flat is presented as an investment opportunity in central Bradford. The property is sold with an existing assured shorthold tenancy paying £650 pcm (£7,800 pa), providing immediate rental income and no requirement for owner-occupation. The 593 sq ft apartment sits in a modern purpose-built block and benefits from a long lease (approximately 982 years remaining) and an EPC rating of C.
Practical factors for buyers: heating is electric with room heaters (no central gas), glazing is double but installation date is unknown, and there are no internal viewings. The flat is in a very high crime area and a very deprived neighbourhood, which will affect tenant demand and resale prospects. The building is contemporary and city-centre positioned close to transport links and local amenities, including schools and Centenary Square.
This lot suits a hands-off investor seeking a low-entry price with immediate yield, or a buyer willing to manage tenancy and potential maintenance. Budget for potential upgrades (heating, decor, possible appliance replacement) and factor in the local market conditions and limited inspection access before purchase.
