Why Should A Landlord Buy Properties In Romford

Posted on: 1 April 2023

Why should a landlord buy properties in Romford

 

There are several reasons why a landlord might consider buying properties in Romford, Essex

  • Location: Romford is located in the London commuter belt and this makes it an attractive location for renters who work in London but want to live outside the city. This can make rental properties in Romford in high demand, with the potential for high occupancy rates.

 

  • Transport links: Romford is well-connected with excellent transport links, including the new Elizabeth Line train with regular services to Stratford, London Liverpool Street, Paddington Station, Heathrow Airport and other areas. Romford also has easy access to major road networks such as the A12, A127 and M25.

 

  • Regeneration: Romford has undergone significant regeneration in recent years, with new developments, shops, and leisure facilities opening up. This has helped to increase the desirability of the area and can potentially lead to an increase in property values.

 

  • Affordable prices: While property prices in London can be very high, property prices in Romford are generally more affordable, making it an attractive option for both renters and landlords.

 

  • Student population: Havering is home to several colleges, which can create a demand for student accommodation.

 

Overall, Romford can be an attractive location for landlords looking to invest in a potentially high-demand rental market. However, it's important to do thorough research and due diligence before investing in any property, including assessing local demand, property values, and potential rental income.
