Freehold end-terrace Victorian property, approx 2,831 sq ft

Very high local crime and very deprived area—investor risk
Small plot size; city-centre location with excellent broadband
Requires energy-efficiency and cosmetic/updating works
This freehold end-terrace Victorian property in Doncaster city centre is offered as a licensed HMO with eleven licensed bedrooms (currently configured as nine). It is trading with a long-term company tenant who pays £2,600 pcm net and handles maintenance, bills (including council tax) and occupancy, providing immediate cashflow.
The advertised 50% gross ROI and a potential gross annual income of £62,916 are illustrative, based on 11 rooms at £110 per week and 100% occupancy; actual returns will vary with room rents and voids. The building has an EPC rating D, solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, and dates from the early 20th century — factors that may need energy-efficiency improvements and ongoing maintenance.
This property suits an investor seeking an HMO with existing income and management in place, plus potential to increase yield by reconfiguring rooms to the full 11-bed licence and addressing energy and cosmetic upgrades. Important negatives: the local area records very high crime and very high deprivation, the plot is small, and some refurbishment or insulation works should be expected to improve EPC and long-term running costs.
