🏡 FROM TIRED ASSET TO HIGH-DEMAND RENTAL 🏡

These before and after photos show what's possible when a property is given the right investment, guidance and strategy.

Working closely with the landlord, Ben, our Project Development Manager & Business Consultant, oversaw this refurbishment project from start to finish, transforming a dated property into a modern home ready for today's rental market.

The result?

✅ Fully refurbished throughout
✅ Increased tenant appeal
✅ Let within the first week of marketing
✅ Minimal void period

Many landlords are sitting on properties with untapped potential. Whether it's improving rental values, reducing future maintenance issues or attracting better-quality tenants, having the right team around you can make a huge difference to your returns.

If you're a landlord and feel your portfolio could be working harder for you, we'd love to have a conversation.

In case you didn’t know, we’re a little obsessed with market data at Francis Stuart.

It’s what helps our landlords make smarter reinvestment decisions, gives our sellers clearer direction, and generally keeps our advice grounded in what’s actually happening (not just what people think is happening).

Since January 2025, we’ve been quietly tracking the HMO sales market and it’s turned into a pretty interesting dataset in a space where reliable insight is… scarce.

Curious to know what's going on in the HMO Sales world right now? Don't worry, Paige is always happy to talk about it!

Thinking of selling your investment property?

We've recently had a fair bit of success in the local market since double down on investment sales, so we thought we'd share with you the steps and considerations we take before getting a property live! From presentation and pricing, to tenant setup and compliance, getting the groundwork right can make all the difference in securing a strong sale at the best possible price.

If you're looking for a bit of advice, drop us a line!

Curious to know what we're seeing in the Plymouth HMO Sales Market?

"HMO's aren't interesting investments any more"
"HMO's are your best chance of profiting from rent"
"Is there even demand for HMO's any more?"

All statements our investment team have heard recently, and probably say more about the noise in the market than the market itself.

We've got a video incoming from our Director, Paige, discussing the data trends we're seeing and what influences them but, in the mean time, we thought we'd share the highlights from the data we're collecting and tracking, which helps us, and our clients, gage market conditions and make informed decisions!

“Property isn’t worth it anymore, you’re better off putting your money into stocks…”

We hear this a lot, but we weren't convinced so we did one of the things we do best, and we ran the numbers.

So, just in case you've heard this statement too, Paige (our Sales & Lettings Director and in-house numbers nerd) breaks down the maths behind both to see how it really stacks up 📊🏡

If you’ve been debating where your money should go, this might give you a fresh perspective.

That said, this is purely looking at the financial side using historical data. Property comes with its own risks (people included…and they’re often the unpredictable part!), so it’s not a one-size-fits-all answer.

And just to say: we’re not financial advisors, just people who love data. If you’re thinking of investing, it’s always worth speaking to a professional (and we know a couple of good-uns).

‼️NEW PROJECT‼️

Two years ago, we took on a portfolio from a self-managed landlord whose properties needed serious attention both in condition and compliance. While rents were sitting around a third below market value, the real challenge was navigating an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.

Fast forward to today: with the right guidance and a clear strategy, we uncovered an opportunity to significantly increase rental income. Up to 100% by bringing the properties up to standard and unlocking their full potential📈.

Originally not part of the long-term plan, everything changed once the tenants (and their 10+ pets! 🐶🐱🐾) moved on. Beneath it all was a property full of promise, just waiting for the right vision ✨.

Now, the landlord has decided to retain the property and embark on a major transformation with our support every step of the way 🛠️🤝.

Big changes are coming… watch this space 👀🔥

📍 97 Citadel Road – Ground Floor Flat

A recent refurbishment has transformed this property while keeping costs smart, strategic, and future-focused 👇

💷 Previous Rent: £675 PCM
💷 New Rent: £875 PCM
📈 Increase: +£200 PCM

🔨 Total spend: £7,400
➡️ Core refurb: ~£5,800 (with the rest covering essential external + window repairs)

✨ What was done:
• Kitchen refreshed (new silicone & grout)
• Bathroom upgraded (new toilet + shower screen)
• Full repaint throughout
• Brand new flooring throughout

🛠️ Future-proofing highlights:
• Key maintenance issues resolved (including exterior works)
• Durable, low-maintenance finishes installed throughout
• Modernised presentation to attract and retain quality tenants
• Reduced likelihood of near-term repair costs

💡 A great example of how targeted upgrades—not full replacements—can increase rental income while protecting long-term value.

❗Shaping a Sales Department Built for Investors❗

Over the past 6 months, we’ve been evolving our sales department not just in what we do, but why we do it.

The market has changed. And in today’s HMO landscape, guesswork is expensive.

While we still sell residential property, our focus has shifted towards investment opportunities, HMOs, blocks, and refurbishment projects. Why? Because as landlords ourselves, we saw a gap.

Too many investment properties are marketed like standard homes:
❌ Limited detail
❌ Weak presentation
❌ Little understanding of investor needs

So, we built something different.

Introducing: The Landlord Club
A platform designed to bring clarity, insight, and structure to the investment market.

But more importantly we don’t just sell these assets, we understand them.
From compliance and licensing to the realities of day-to-day management, our advice is grounded in real experience - not theory.

📊 What the data is telling us (Plymouth HMO Market):

• Supply is down 30% since Oct 2025
• Average net yields: ~5.5% (residential) vs ~9% (HMO)
• 50% of HMOs sell… 50% don’t
👉 The difference? Price & agent expertise

• Properties marketed at ~12% yield are selling
• Those at ~11.3% are sitting unsold
→ A ~£20,000 pricing gap can make all the difference

• You're ~70% more likely to sell with a specialist agent

• Larger HMOs (7-10 beds) are in highest demand
• Buyers now expect full compliance documentation before viewing

What does this mean for you?

Whether you're:
✔ Reviewing your portfolio
✔ Considering selling
✔ Looking for your next investment

We’re here to help, with honest insight, real data, and a practical approach.

No pressure. Just a straightforward conversation.
