A Ready-Made Investment Opportunity
For investors looking to add an established HMO to their portfolio without starting from scratch, 2 Kingfisher Way represents a particularly compelling proposition.
The property has been successfully operated as a six-bedroom House of Multiple Occupation and is fully licensed, fully occupied and already generating rental income, providing the incoming purchaser with the opportunity to acquire an established investment rather than a vacant property requiring conversion, licensing and tenant sourcing.
Importantly, the property is being sold with the existing tenants in situ as an ongoing concern, allowing an investor to benefit from an income-producing asset from the outset, subject to the existing tenancy arrangements.
The current owner has enjoyed ownership of the property for a considerable period, and the accommodation has demonstrated itself to be a practical and financially effective HMO.
The property has also been professionally managed by Leaders, giving prospective purchasers the added benefit of an established management history and the opportunity to discuss continued professional management following completion.
The accommodation is specifically designed for the HMO Market. Internally, the accommodation is particularly well configured for multiple occupation.
There are six individual bedrooms, three of which benefit from their own private en-suite facilities, providing an attractive option for tenants looking for a higher standard of shared accommodation.
The remaining accommodation is supported by a shared bathroom, together with an additional ground-floor WC, helping provide ample facilities across the property.
A major feature is the large, well-fitted communal kitchen, providing generous facilities for multiple occupants. This is complemented by a communal dining area, creating genuine shared living space rather than simply a collection of individual rooms.
The property has been maintained in good condition throughout, helping make this a highly attractive proposition for an investor seeking an established asset rather than an extensive refurbishment project.
Why Bishop’s Stortford Works for HMO Investment
Bishop’s Stortford has long been regarded as one of the area's most desirable and strategically positioned commuter towns, and its combination of employment, transport and lifestyle amenities makes it particularly attractive to the professional rental market.
The town benefits from excellent railway connections towards London Liverpool Street, Stansted Airport and Cambridge, while its proximity to the M11 provides further road connectivity.
For HMO investors in particular, the proximity of London Stansted Airport represents an important advantage. The airport and surrounding businesses provide substantial employment, helping create a broad potential tenant base including airport employees and professionals requiring convenient accommodation with good transport connections.
Bishop’s Stortford also attracts London commuters and those working elsewhere along the rail corridor, helping diversify potential tenant demand rather than making the investment dependent upon one employment sector.
Excellent Position for Tenants
Kingfisher Way is particularly well positioned for the requirements of professional tenants.
Bishop’s Stortford town centre and railway station are within walking distance, while local bus services provide further connectivity, including links towards Stansted Airport.
The nearby Hockerill Street area offers a selection of restaurants, cafés and amenities, while the town centre provides a comprehensive range of shops, leisure facilities and everyday services.
For tenants looking to exercise or enjoy outdoor space, the town's attractive parks and recreational areas are also readily accessible.
It is this combination of transport, employment opportunities, town-centre amenities and quality of life that makes Bishop’s Stortford such an attractive proposition for the professional rental market.
Strong Future Letting Potential
The property currently enjoys 100% occupancy, demonstrating its existing appeal within the local market.
Bishop’s Stortford has traditionally generated strong demand for good-quality rental accommodation, and Leaders continues to deal with applicants seeking accommodation within the town and surrounding area.
Consequently, should individual rooms become available in the future, we believe the property's location, configuration and accessibility should place it in a strong position to attract replacement tenants, subject of course to prevailing market conditions at that time.
For an investor, this combination of an established HMO operation, existing occupants and a location supported by multiple sources of tenant demand is particularly appealing.
An Investment Generating Income From Day One
What separates 2 Kingfisher Way from a conventional buy-to-let opportunity is that much of the work involved in establishing an HMO investment has already been undertaken.
The property is licensed, occupied, professionally managed and established, with an existing rental income stream.
Gross Yield: 7.2%
For experienced HMO landlords, this represents an opportunity to add an established property to an existing portfolio. Equally, purchasers entering the HMO market may appreciate acquiring an existing operation rather than undertaking a conversion from a conventional residential dwelling.
The property is offered chain free, further enhancing its investment credentials.
For purchasers requiring specialist funding, HMO mortgage advice is available through our mortgage advisers, who can discuss the different financing options potentially available, subject to individual circumstances and lending criteria.
