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
An outstanding investment opportunity comprising a fully let six-bedroom HMO with a self-contained one-bedroom annex, superbly positioned on Woodville Road in the heart of Cathays—one of Cardiff’s most established and consistently high-performing locations for HMO and buy-to-let investors.
The main residence is arranged as a well-proportioned six-bedroom HMO and has been recently redecorated throughout, presenting in excellent condition.
The property is clearly well cared for and maintained to a standard that continues to attract reliable tenants.
To the rear, a separate one-bedroom self-contained annex offers additional flexibility and income potential, ideal for maximizing returns while spreading rental risk.
Both elements of the property are currently fully let, providing immediate income with no initial void period.
Located on Woodville Road, the property benefits from a prime HMO location with sustained demand driven by its close proximity to universities, transport links, and a wide range of local amenities.
Cathays remains one of Cardiff’s most resilient rental markets, popular with students and young professionals alike.
The combination of a large HMO and a separate annex is particularly attractive to investors seeking strong yields, diversified income streams, and long-term capital growth.
With its turnkey condition and proven rental performance, this property represents a low-maintenance, high-demand addition to any investment portfolio.
Properties of this caliber, condition, and configuration rarely become available in Cathays. Early interest is strongly advised to secure this exceptional, income-producing investment opportunity.
