Rising Rents in the North East: The Looming Affordability Ceiling in 2025
Serviced Accommodation
Long-term investment solution
The North East is a highly lucrative and growing market for high-quality serviced accommodation. We partner with a leading provider of serviced accommodation to appraise each property, providing a realistic picture of potential returns and ensuring a seamless process from sourcing to completion and ongoing management.
Serviced accommodation offers strong rental income and yield potential, often outperforming traditional long-term lets. For instance, a property let on a long-term rental at £750 PCM could potentially achieve £750 per week on a short-term let. The sector is growing rapidly as more people recognise the benefits of staying in serviced accommodation, which typically offer more space and amenities than hotels or B&Bs.
With new technology making it easier to find and manage serviced accommodation lettings, and advantageous tenancy laws for landlords, the serviced accommodation market presents a compelling investment opportunity. Our expertise and experience can help you navigate this market and maximise your investment returns.
