Buying investment property in Liverpool City Region is a great idea. Of course, some deals are better than others. Before you make your next investment, it’s important to run the numbers.

Prior to making an offer:

• research the area, to make sure there’s a high demand for rental properties
• calculate your potential yield

In the videos below, we explain how to do both of these things, so watch them before you read on.

If you’re an experienced landlord, you may know the best areas of Liverpool to buy your next property. You probably know how much to charge for rent. But it’s still worth getting the opinion of an independent letting agent.

If you set rent too high, you risk pricing yourself out of the market. If you calculate figures based on a rental rate you can’t achieve, or one that’s below market value, you’ll end up with a false picture of your investment. That’s why Homesure Property has introduced a new service – Rate My Deal.

Rate My Deal by Homesure Property

With Rate My Deal, you can send us a link to a property that you’re thinking of buying. We’ll run the figures for you, based on our knowledge of the local area and calculate potential yield on your behalf.

We’ll take into account any work that needs to be done on the property and tell you whether we believe it to be a good investment or not.

For now, this service is available exclusively for landlords who already have one or more properties managed by Homesure. That may change in the future, so if you don’t currently have properties managed by us you can still ask – just know that at busy times we may have to say ‘no’ if you’re not an existing client (if you are an existing Homesure landlord, we’ll always say ‘yes’).

Property investment advice you can trust

The property doesn’t have to be advertised through Homesure for us to rate your deal. It can be listed with any estate agent.

Whether it’s for sale through Homesure’s estate agency or not, we’ll give you our honest opinion on the investment prospects. We want to develop long-term relationships with landlords, built on trust. We never advise someone to buy an investment property that we wouldn’t buy ourselves. If we rate your deal, we’ll tell you with confidence what we could let it out for. If it’s in our area, there’s a good chance we’ll already have tenants waiting, so you can avoid the property sitting empty after your purchase completes.

Homesure landlords, send your property link via this online form and we’ll rate your deal.

Free support for all landlords
