hillsgal   10 #1 Posted July 2, 2017 I'm getting ready to put my house (large 3 bed terrace in Hillsborough) up for rent as I'm moving out of the area, and I'm wondering how quickly rental properties are being snapped up at the moment. It's a good house, larger and with a different layout compared to the standard 3 bed Sheffield terrace, and it's in very good condition with most rooms recently redecorated. We've also moved most of our stuff out so it looks much more spacious and "depersonalised". There don't seem to be a massive number of similar properties on the market at the moment, but I don't know how many potential tenants are currently looking for a new place. Can anyone tell me how long they'd expect a house like this to be on the market before it gets viewings and applications? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
hillsgal   10 #2 Posted July 2, 2017 It's 2 double bedrooms and an attic bedroom with separate study/dressing room. As I said, it's bigger than the standard terrace and with a different layout. There's a lot more space than an average terrace house, and way more than a semi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

geared   302 #4 Posted July 3, 2017 Should rent out fairly quickly, but don't count on it winning substantially more in rental income than any other 3-bed terraced place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

No-one does. If you have a good property and it's on at a reasonable price then it will go like a hot-cake. It's still a Landlord's market out there. I've not had properties sit around for very long in the current climate and I'm finding Tenants seem to be staying longer at this moment in time.
