This one-bedroom flat in Dumbarton is a compact, income-producing opportunity for investors seeking an immediate return. The property is currently tenanted at £450 pcm, delivering a headline yield around 8.3% at the asking price of £60,000, and sits within walking distance of local amenities and transport links to Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Internally the apartment is presented in walk-in condition with a comfortable lounge, fitted kitchen and one bedroom within approximately 506 sq ft. A garage accompanies the flat and there is no flooding risk. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as strong, which supports modern rental demand.
Notable drawbacks are material and should inform purchase considerations: the energy performance is rated E and the wider area is classified as very deprived, which can affect long-term capital growth and tenant demand profile. Tenure is not specified and the flat is sold with a settled tenant in place, so immediate access for refurbishment may be limited.
For an investor this is a hands-off cashflow asset with scope to add value through targeted updating or re-letting at higher rents once vacant. Buyers who prioritise yield over immediate capital appreciation will find the combination of steady rent, strong transport links and local rental demand attractive.
