LANDLORDS INSIGHT

"We purchased the investment back in 2001 knowing we had a bit of a project to get it running the way we wanted, and in the early years we had to make quite a few changes to ensure we had respectful tenants. Three of our tenants have now been with us for twelve years, and the most recent is a returning tenant who chose to come back, so we hope this gives a new owner the comfort that the block is harmonious. Now we are retired, the flats have done their intended longer term investment for us, and it is time to relinquish the lettings and enjoy the cash we have invested."

The development is arranged over three levels. FLAT 1 - Positioned at entrance level from Teignmouth Road, and one level up from the parking being a 2 BEDROOM design. FLAT 2 - Positioned at entrance level from Teignmouth Road, and one level up from the parking being a 1 BEDROOM design.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
