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
Situated within the highly sought-after Brynmill district, one of Swansea's premier student locations, 13 St Albans Road provides an exceptional opportunity to acquire a fully let, high-performing purpose-managed student investment in close proximity to Swansea University, Singleton Park and the city centre.
The property provides well-presented accommodation for seven students and has been refurbished and maintained to a high standard by the current owners, reflecting their long-standing focus on delivering quality accommodation within Swansea's strongest student locations.
To the rear of the property, secure off-street parking is provided for two vehicles, together with a private patio area.
The property is offered for sale fully furnished and equipped, allowing for immediate occupation or continued investment use.
St Albans Road is currently generating an annual rental income of £40,600 on 50-week tenancy agreements, with rents continuing to demonstrate strong year-on-year growth.
Rents quoted are exclusive of utilities which are paid by the students.
Having formed part of the same family-owned portfolio since 2001, the property benefits from established management systems, excellent tenant demand and an outstanding occupancy record.
The vendors have consistently reinvested in the accommodation, resulting in 100% occupancy at the commencement of every academic year since the portfolio was established.
Available individually or as part of the wider Swansea portfolio, 13 St Albans Road offers investors an immediately income-producing asset within one of Wales' most resilient and well-established student housing markets.
