2 bedroom flat, Ifield, Crawley

Here’s a 2 bed apartment that has just come on to the market with a tenant already in-insitu. Priced at £214 950, the agent (Taylor Robinson) has stated the tenant is currently paying £950pcm, which is par for the course for this type of property.

The property is aimed at investors. However, you should carry out your own due diligence when taking over a tenant – rental payment history being one of the key questions to ask. Always remember as well, that tenants can also give notice and leave.

However, based on the rental figure quoted, you would achieve a maximum annual gross yield of 5.3%, which is very respectable indeed.
