Investment summary Last remaining buy-to-let newly renovated flats are left in this superb investment near Liverpool City Centre. These flats have a RICS Valuation of £90,000 but can be bought by you for only £69,000 giving instant equity of £21,000. Income will be paid monthly from March 2012 with an assured 10% NET rental return for 3 years. Act now or miss out! Investment Description This is a fantastic buy-to-let opportunity which is selling out fast. The sister building sold out in only a few weeks. This apartment block has superior views to its sister building with some apartments having views of the Mersey and the Liverpool Docks. The flats were originally selling for in excess of £130,000 in early 2008 before the original developer was unable to complete the project. Renovations have now resumed under the guidance of a leading architect company and Liverpool City Council to complete the project to a very high standard. I just viewed the flats last week and they are coming along very well. The site manager stressed to me that the developer has very high standards and everything must be done the way it is supposed to and more! Hence why the Liverpool Council want to work with him, and offer him buildings to develop. The developer has two current RICS valuations completed by Mason Owen and Atkinson Stroller respectively, valuing the units in the current market at £90,000. I have looked at comparables in the area and these RICS valuations are accurate, if not, slightly low. The exterior of the near finished apartment block looks lovely already and once they are completed you as an investor will be proud to own one of these flats. And it will be a delight for tenants to live there too. Your Returns During the first three years, you will receive £20,700 NET rental income with a 10% NET return per annum. This compares to other buy-to-let flats in the UK, where you would expect to get £7,200 over 3 years (based on a net profit of £200 pcm). Additionally, RICS valuations confirm that you will get instant equity of £21,000 on the very day you purchase as the flats have been valued at £90,000. Yields in the Northwest are running at 7% GROSS (source: January issue of ‚Property Investor'), underscoring just how high this return is for this investment. Plus these flats will be fully managed for you so there is nothing for you to do. One of my buyers is thrilled with her purchase, as this more than trebles the rate of return she is getting in the bank, she also has in-built equity, and she will start receiving an income in March 2012 upon completion. The Development and the Flats I took a tour of the show flat and all the flats will be identical to the show flat. The photos are my photos. There is lots of light in all the rooms, even on a dark rainy day. There are two double bedrooms and a single bedroom. The lounge is large with a big window providing excellent views. The kitchen is separate from the lounge, providing for more privacy and space for all the occupiers. And there is ample space for a kitchen table seating 4+, as you can see from the photograph. There is also a separate WC from the bathroom, which again is very practical. There are high quality electricals and appliances in the flat, and the decoration is clean and modern. The development: Refurbishment due for completion in March 2012 Each flat comes with a washing machine and refrigerator Internet access to all apartments Exterior and Interior renovation Each flat comes with a washing machine and refrigerator CCTV linked to all flats On site 24 hour security Key fob entry system EPC rating of C Local demand The development consists of 128 three bedroom flats newly refurbished to a high quality. The flats benefit from being in a private, landscaped, gated community which includes an on-site gymnasium, supermarket, management office, on-site security, CCTV and 128 parking spaces. Location of Flats These properties are only an 18 minute walk (I walked it myself on Friday) from Royal Liverpool Hospital and Liverpool University in the city centre. There is also a bus at the doorstep which runs every 5 minutes into Liverpool city centre (less than an 8 minute journey). Liverpool Hope University is just down the road too. It is a family area that has already benefitted from a lot of regeneration. A new £150m local centre is planned for the area which will, improve retail, services and public areas, and will continue to upgrade the area. Demand for Flats These flats have proved to be even more popular than the flats in the adjoining apartment block. This development addresses the shortage of rental flats for residents of Liverpool. 15 tenants are going after every buy-to-let property in Liverpool and this is predicted to continue. Thus, it has never been a better time to be a landlord in Liverpool. Rental prices have risen by 20% in Liverpool in the last year. People who would normally be looking to buy cannot afford to do so in the current economic climate and are renting instead. As a result, demand for accommodation, particularly quality, affordable rental property near the city centre, continues to rise. Affordable properties in and around Liverpool city centre appeal to young, working Liverpudlians as well as students attending the local universities. Due to their location, these flats are very attractive for professionals, key workers and students. Buying Procedure - Choose your preferred property - Pay £2,500 reservation deposit - Exchange Contracts 21 days after reservation deposit and pay £33,500 deposit - Pay balance of £33,000 by end of February 2012 - Receive income from March 2012 This is a cash purchase; there is no finance available. To secure one of these flats you will need to act today are only a couple of flats remaining, and we expect them to be sold in the next week.
