Summary - 9, PHILLIP STREET, NEWPORT NP19 0EE
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Vacant, licensed 4-bed HMO near university — immediate rental potential.
Fully licensed 4-bed HMO — licence valid until 27 Dec 2027
This small freehold semi-detached offers a ready-made investment: a fully licensed 4-bed HMO (licence granted 28 Dec 2022, expires 27 Dec 2027) currently vacant and arranged to maximise rental income. At about 818 sq ft the property includes four bedrooms, a communal lounge, fitted kitchen, and modern bathroom — a compact, income-focused layout close to Newport city centre and the University of South Wales.
Location is the key selling point for landlords: excellent transport links, walking distance to the university and city amenities, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support student and professional lets. The low-maintenance rear garden and internal modern fittings reduce ongoing spend for tenants and managers.
Buyers should weigh the income potential against clear local factors. The area is very deprived with high crime levels; the property is small and on a small plot, and the exterior needs maintenance and cosmetic upkeep. These factors can affect tenant mix, management costs and insurance premiums.
This is a straightforward opportunity for an investor or landlord experienced with HMO compliance and city-centre lets. It suits someone seeking immediate rental income under an existing licence, but undertake detailed checks on licence conditions, local demand, running costs and any required repairs before purchase.
