Rental Returns at City Quay - Dundee

Another opportunity at City Quay. I know this area very well and have let flats/town houses there virtually since the development started.

The thing to note is that not all property is created equal even in a relatively small area like city quay.

Now there are a variety of sized properties from town houses to four bed apartment’s there, but in my opinion these aren’t optimal for renting (unless you want to go down the HMO route).

My choice would be something like the one above. A spacious two double bedroom apartment in a modern block, views over the docks to the city and secure entry and secure parking. Asking price £145,000, now by coincidence I’ve let identical flats to that in that very block and I think a conservative rent would be around £650 per month (normally a little more) giving you a rental return of nearly 5%. Not too shabby, especially when you factor in the likely capital appreciation in the area.

If you want to pick my brains about this or any other aspect of the Dundee area lettings market, by all means drop me a line. Nick.horan@belvoirlettings.com
