What specific question do you have or what issues are of concern to you?
An interesting property investment opportunity has come up for sale - repossession property. It’s an attractive listed property that has been divided into four one beds in a town centre location that I am very familiar with. Strong long term rental demand and Airbandb. The house is not planning compliant (sub division) and this has been the case for circa 10 years. There is no suggestion the Council has given notice re remedying the non compliance. Ive been informed the units are rented out for €750 each -€3K in total. This sounds low for the area. I haven’t viewed the property yet. It’s not clear if all the tenancies are registered. Purchase price: circa €200k. Thus, initial gross rental return before any improvements: 18%.
I am considering how I might fund this purchase. I presume it would be difficult to get an investment mortgage if it isn’t currently planning compliant? Can anyone advise how I might access the funding? I am open to selling my current investment property but would prefer to hold it for another few years as I have an excellent tenant and no problems. If I did sell, I would still have circa €100K to come up with.
Looking for guidance on funding the purchase here. I think this is a very good long term investment, if I can source the funding.
Many thanks
