We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Located in the heart of Dundee City Centre, this substantial first-floor flat presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a high-yielding HMO buy-to-let investment with tenants already in place.
The property extends to approximately 94 sq m and comprises an entrance hallway, open-plan lounge/kitchen, four bedrooms, a bathroom with WC, and a separate shower room with WC.
Built circa 1871, the property retains traditional character with timber sash and case windows, while benefiting from gas central heating. The current EPC rating is Band C.
The property is HMO compliant and is being sold with the tenants in situ, who have been in residence since February 2026, currently paying £1,700 per calendar month.
The Home Report value is £170,000, making this a particularly attractive opportunity for investors seeking strong rental income from a well-located, fully operational asset.
Dundee continues to establish itself as one of Scotland’s most appealing buy-to-let markets, offering a compelling combination of affordable purchase prices and strong rental yields.
The city’s two universities and growing population of students and young professionals create consistent demand for well-located HMO properties, particularly in central locations such as Commercial Street.
Ongoing regeneration of the waterfront, combined with a thriving digital, creative, and life sciences sector, continues to drive inward investment and support long-term growth.
With high demand for quality rental accommodation and comparatively low entry prices, Dundee offers investors an excellent opportunity to secure strong, sustainable returns and future capital appreciation.
