An attractive high-yield investment opportunity in the heart of Brentford, well positioned for strong rental demand and future capital growth close to the River Thames.
Estimated rental value: £1,750 pcm (£21,000 per annum), reflecting a gross yield of approximately 9.5% per annum based on the guide price. There is further scope to enhance income by reconfiguring the layout: the separate living room could be utilised as a second bedroom (subject to usual consents and compliance), creating a two-bedroom rental unit, which may increase overall rental income.
The flat currently comprises a living room, fitted kitchen with direct access to a private garden, double bedroom and bathroom. Residents’ parking is available, and the property is offered with vacant possession.
Located on Albany Road, moments from Brentford town centre and within easy reach of Brentford Mainline Station, the A4/M4 and local amenities, as well as leisure attractions including Watermans Arts Centre.

Legal pack
For each lot there are Special Conditions of Sale and other documentation provided by the vendor's solicitors. If you wish to receive the Legal Pack, you will be able to register for this via the link on our website. You will receive notification by email once the Legal Pack is received from the solicitor. The documents may not tell you everything you need to know about the property and you are required to complete your own due diligence before bidding.
Additional fees
A buyers charge of £1,650 including VAT is payable on each lot that you buy, in addition to the sale price. Please be aware there may be other additional fees, including disbursements contained in the legal pack payable on completion. Please ensure that you check the legal pack for each lot that you are interested in, prior to bidding.
Deposit
If you are the highest bidder when the auction ends, contracts are exchanged between you and the seller. Both parties are legally bound to complete the transaction as per the special conditions in the legal pack. Your card will be automatically debited for the bidder security amount of £6,000 and we'll require the remaining balance for a 10% non-refundable deposit. We will contact you after the auction has finished to make these arrangements.
Pre-auction offers
These must be made in writing and will only be considered if the Legal Pack has been inspected and proof of funding has been supplied to the auctioneers. Pre-auction offers are only considered on an auction basis in accordance with the “Terms & Conditions - Unconditional Auction".
Mortgage finance
We advise all bidders who require a mortgage to confirm with their Financial Advisor as to whether or not the lot you are interested in would be suitable security to borrow finance against, prior to bidding. If you need to arrange a mortgage it is important that you obtain an offer from your lender before the day of the auction. Most building societies and banks will instruct a surveyor to prepare a valuation report before making a mortgage offer.
* Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller's minimum expectation, i.e. 'The Reserve'. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.
By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
