Summary - 2 APARTMENT 804 MASSHOUSE PLAZA BIRMINGHAM B5 5JF
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-let city flat with immediate rental income and clear upside potential.
Current gross income £11,400 pa; market rent potential £13,320 pa
This one-bedroom flat in Masshouse Plaza is offered to cash buyers with a long-standing tenant in situ, making it a straightforward addition to a buy-to-let portfolio. The property is well maintained and features an open-plan living area, contemporary kitchen, triple-fixture bathroom and a balcony that faces the cityscape. At 506 sq ft and with 128 years remaining on the lease, it’s a compact, long-lease investment.
Current gross income is £11,400 pa with a demonstrated uplift to around £13,320 pa at market rent, presenting immediate yield and rental growth potential. The building’s central location provides excellent broadband and mobile signal and easy access to universities, shops, cafes and public transport—appealing to students and city renters.
Important drawbacks are clear and factual: sale is cash-only, a buyer’s premium will apply, and the area records very high crime and wider deprivation indicators which could affect tenant churn and long-term capital growth. The property is in a dense, student-focused neighbourhood, so demand may be seasonal and tenant mix is predominantly young renters.
For investors seeking an off-the-shelf rental with room to increase income, this flat delivers instant cash flow and manageable hands-on management requirements. Buyers should review the Let Property Pack and tenancy details to confirm rent roll, service charges and any building management considerations before committing.
