UK investment properties: Run down property needing redevelopment
Property investors choose to invest their money in UK property over the
stock market for a number of reasons:
- A UK property provides investors with a tangible asset
- UK property investments provide better capital growth returns on both long term and short term investments
- The UK property market is less volatile than the stock market
- Investors in UK property have more control over their investments than they would investing in the stock market
- Properly structured rental returns usually cover the day-to-day property
costs and can provide pension incomes

Distressed Property Sales
Poor overall maintenance can be seen in cracked or peeling paint, crumbling masonry, broken fixtures or shoddy wiring or plumbing. While most of these cosmetic defects can be easily repaired, you do need to pay particular attention to any makeshift electrical or plumbing fixtures, which can be potentially dangerous.
Minor structural damage can result from water seepage into the foundation, floor joists, rafters, or window and door lintels. Although they won’t cause the house to collapse, they do require your attention before becoming more serious.
Plumbing problems typically include old or incompatible piping materials and faulty fixtures or waste lines.
Water and air leaking in around windows and doors is usually not a serious problem and can be fixed inexpensively with proper grouting.
Inadequate ventilation can cause too much moisture to remain in the house which can ruin interior walls and structural elements. To repair damage caused by poor ventilation, you may need to replace drywall and other elements. Replacing structural elements, however, may be much more expensive.
Environmental hazards include lead-based paint (often found in homes built before 1978), asbestos, formaldehyde, contaminated drinking water, radon and leaking underground oil tanks. Special inspections are needed to determine environmental problems, and repairing any of these problems can be expensive.
Property Renovations
If you’re planning to buy a property that requires renovation or
you plan to carry out major structural changes, ensure that you have an
accurate estimate of the costs.
Buying Cheap Property
Pubs are cheap due to the smoking ban, competition from supermarkets or just changes in the way we live. The licensed property market is being flooded with cheap empty pub sites ahead of the scrapping of concession rates for empty commercial properties. click here to search pubs, clubs, bars, hotels, restaurants and other licensed properties for sale in UK
Property repossessions – Sadly for the previous owners, repossessions can often be picked up at bargain prices
Investment properties – Properties, which are valued due to the return on investment that they provide. Includes everything from individual office/shop investments to blocks of flats.
Rundown properties – Properties that are unsaleable in their current state. The attraction here is if you can get such a property in a good location at a cheap price it’s perfectly possible to refurbish and resell on at handsome profits. Unsaleable properties come under the following categories:
- Derelict properties or in derelict areas.
- Properties subject to severe disrepair.
- Properties subject to local authority notices.
- Properties subject to repossesion.
- Properties with ambiguous legal titles.
- Properties without access.
- Properties with major fencing, paving, drainage or other similar responsibilities.
- Properties subject to covenants or restrictions, which prevent normal use
