The £100,000 Mistake: Running an Unlicensed HMO

Hero Billede Alt

BTL gross yield in 2026: 5-6%. A well-run HMO in Newcastle: 9.7%. Hull or Bradford: up to 15%. The gap is structural — but the net yield after licensing and management tells the real story. #HMOInvesting #RentalYields

Why Landlords Are Selling 2,000 Student Beds Before the Rules Bite

Hero Billede Alt

YieldMe just processed £170 million worth of student HMO sales in a single year — over 2,000 beds gone, mostly from landlords who can't see a profitable path through the Renters' Rights Act. The smart money isn't running with them.
