If you're a landlord looking to expand their portfolio, or a buyer considering investing in the lettings market, now could be the right time to do it.

Rental prices are soaring, with an annual rent rise of 7.8% compared to last year, and demand remains strong, with an average of 15 enquiries per rental property currently on the market. The South East in particular has seen strong growth, with nearly all private rentals in the South East now in areas with average rents over £1,000 per month.

Here at Intercounty, we have a range of properties for sale with the potential for high rental yield. We’ve put together a selection of five properties that would make excellent investment properties for landlords.
