About this place
Presenting an exceptional investment opportunity with two fully-tenanted student studio apartments located on Gateway Street, Leicester, UK. These purpose-built units offer immediate income with tenancies secured for the entire 2025/2026 academic year, ensuring an impressive net yield exceeding 8%.
Leicester is recognised as one of the top cities for student accommodation, home to renowned institutions such as the University of Leicester and De Montfort University. With a vibrant student population of nearly 40,000, the demand for quality housing continues to grow, making this investment particularly attractive. The strategic position of these studios not only promises high occupancy rates but also provides resilience against economic fluctuations.
Each studio is currently generating a weekly rental income of £187, with a tenancy term of 45 weeks, perfectly aligning with the academic calendar. This arrangement significantly de-risks the investment by guaranteeing consistent cash flow from day one of ownership without the usual void periods associated with student lets. Furthermore, the convenience of professional management services makes this a passive investment, covering tenant relations, maintenance, and compliance—which is perfect for busy or overseas investors seeking a hassle-free return.
