Expertise & Experience
When it comes to selling an investment property (or portfolio of properties) in Leeds, there are a number of things you need to take into account. Compliance, planning, condition are all elements that affect not only the value, but the chances of a successful completion in a timely manner.
As HMO experts we know what potential buyers are looking out for when it comes to a property and we can help with a detailed review as part of the due diligence required to ensure you have everything in place, before the property is brought to market.
- Does it need an HMO licence?
- Is it in an area of C4 Planning?
- What is the rental history like?
There is currently a lack of stock on in the investment sales market and good properties are in high demand. In particular, the scarcity of HMO’s in Article 4 Direction areas continues to support prices – as there is limited stock on the open market. Planning policy means there are no more likely to be made or converted in these areas.

No Fee Off-Market Sale
If convenience & cost effectiveness are your priorities, then our no fee off-market investment sales service could be the right approach for you.
At HOP, we’ve been working closely with Landlords with properties in Leeds for many years. Since 2009, we have been meticulously letting and managing what has grown to be a portfolio of over 2,000 rental homes within Leeds. This close partnership with Landlords has continued to build over time and has perfectly placed us to assist with investment sales between Investors, with minimal hassle and fuss for all involved. As Landlords grow, or reduce, the size of their portfolios our trusted network of contacts provides an invaluable resource.
Our off-market sales service uses our network of pre-qualified investors, issuing the opportunity to our highly engaged HOP Investor Club and wider database to secure a sale quickly, and with no fee to pay, without having to go on-market.
Positioning Your Investment Property
When it comes to selling an investment property – or a portfolio of properties – how it is marketed and positioned is critical.
Whether the property is being sold with a traditional on-market approach, or you decide to opt for the convenience of an off-market sale, we identify value-add options and crunch the numbers, so that the full potential and ‘big picture’ of the investment is presented in full to the potential buyer.
In many instances, properties are sold to our property sourcing clients – often on an off-market basis – who are pre-qualified investors that are actively looking to purchase in the Leeds market.
Instant Sales Valuation
For an instant sales (or rental) valuation of your property uses our clever instant online valuation tool.
Assisted Sale
Maximise your property’s sale value and share in the profits with an Assisted Sale.
HOP will work in partnership with the owner to identify the potential of their property and then review the costs and strategy required to maximise the sales value against the agreed existing value. The goal is to increase the value to the owner, by optimising the property to maximise the sales price, rather than selling it at a reduced price due to its condition or other facts.
The owner does not need to funds those works, but would get a share in uplift once it is sold. HOP Investments would fully fund and undertake the works, utilising our expert project team of architects, planning consultants, and contractors, and project manage it from start to finish. Once works are finished, the property can be marketed in the usual way. On successful completion, the sales revenue and any profit is shared, repaying costs to each party.
This is ideal for investors or landlords with neglected properties, or properties with value- add potential (development, renovation, planning) and can be owner occupied, a BTL, a HMO, blocks of flats, commercial properties and land.
Understanding The Leeds Market
The Leeds Rental Market is split into two primary segments – Student & Professional – both of which are very buoyant. Leeds’ huge student population means that there is continuous, year-on-year demand for quality properties. Being aware of the student season is key to choosing the right time to sell your investment. 1st July marks the start of the cycle, when across the entire city the majority of students move in to their new homes.
The demand for rental property is not just for students but from professionals too. Leeds’ thriving professional market is down to its popularity as a fantastic place to work, with many large corporations and businesses choosing to locate here.
It’s also worth mentioning the growing rooms market. As everyone feels the pinch of the cost of living crisis, we are seeing an increase in tenants looking for rooms in a house share from both professionals and students alike – making HMO’s a prime choice for people looking to invest in Leeds property.
