I would have though Oxford would be doing well for the BTL crowd with the very high student population. Have Brookes built more halls of residence?

Originally posted by SandyDownActually there is a flood of houses on the market now in Oxford - I know the area you talking about is it the Botley side of Said Business School? is it close to Sojo/Balckwells?
A couple of people I know bought slightly further (Hinsky - border of Oxford/Cumnor) its a lot more suberbia there and I think its quite nice - as for me I live the posh side of oxford but if I have to move then Hinsky area looks good and you can get more for your money.
MInd you the value of the house you are getting is that its central
If I buy anything, it's going to have to be central. 10 mins on foot to Cornmarket/Broad St. max. Hell of a premium for it, but I'm one extreme or the other - way out in the sticks or city centre - don't do suburbia.

Originally posted by bogeymanOxford is going mental at the moment. Looking to buy there and found a nice 3-bed terrace with decent garden in quiet road backing onto canal with nice views over allotments, just 3 mins walk from station. £395k. Bit too much for a 3-bed, but I bet it will be sold in a week.

Originally posted by XenophonI thought the boy had done well and then I read your post. Bit negative, aren't you?
A little bit of effort in maximising your returns early on goes a long way.

Bag-o-pus will be along shortly to tell you to drop the rents and to sell up before it's too late.

Originally posted by shoesJust think of all the money you lost by not raising the rent in line with the market whilst your previous tenants were in. No wonder they stayed so long.
Also maybe the new tenants are getting too good a deal as well, since it wasn't on the market five minutes.

Originally posted by n5goonerTenants moved out last Thursday, been there for the past 5 years, had a vewing last Friday, new tenants move in next week, and are paying an extra £150 per month, plus it will be managed by the chap who looks after the other lot, so I'm also paying 3% less on fees each month!!!
Hows that !!
My managing agents have been telling me not to increase rents on tenancy renewals as the market is 'fragile' - I suspect they are full of it and don't want to do any work.
