Potential buy to let property in Mauricewood, Penicuik ....


I have to say, there are some really nice properties on the market in Penicuik at the moment, so many to choose from! Doesn't make it any easier for me though as I still need to hunt out the best deals that I can for you potential landlords out there.

This one caught my eye though as it is in a nice part of Penicuik and still has the potential to gross you a pretty nice yield, around the 7.6% mark! 


This large semi-detached house is on Boyd Orr Drive in the Mauricewood area of Penicuik.  The house has plenty of accommodation with two public rooms as well as a conservatory and it has four bedrooms.  The property is in a reasonable condition although the kitchen, carpets etc look a wee bit dated.  Also, you would want to check out the shower to make sure it a normal over the bath, stand up one.

Express Estate Agency have got this on the market with a guide price of £166,000; the price was lowered by £24,000 on 14 May 2015 which suggests that the buyer is keen to sell.  Thinking rental levels, you would be looking at a rental price of around £1,050 pcm on this property, this is where we have got our 7.6% return.  You could get a higher rental price is you spend some money modernising the kitchen, carpets etc.
