Long-term tenant in situ (over 7 years) at £430 pcm
A practical buy-to-let in Burnley offered with a long-standing tenant in place. The two-bedroom mid-terrace provides immediate income — currently let at £430 pcm — and sits close to Burnley General Hospital, local schools and bus routes.
Internally the layout is traditional: two reception rooms, separate kitchen, two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating, a modern combi boiler and UPVC double glazing (install date unknown). A small, enclosed rear yard offers low-maintenance outdoor space.
Investor buyers should note the area is classed as very deprived with above-average local crime; the property is in a street of early-20th-century terraces with relatively small rooms and standard ceiling heights. Images and records indicate mixed condition: the current tenant reports careful upkeep, but parts of the house and décor may need updating and there is limited internal space. The property is sold with a tenant in situ and tenure is not specified — purchasers should confirm tenancy terms and title before exchange.
This is a straightforward revenue-producing addition to a rental portfolio for buyers comfortable with urban, older terraces and the local market dynamics. Low council tax, reliable rental history and immediate cashflow are the principal attractions, balanced by the need to manage area-related risks and potential future maintenance.
