STUDENT LETSOFFICIAL DATA

Student buy-to-let, city by city

41 university cities ranked by whole-market gross yield: official ONS rents against Land Registry sold prices. Student shares usually beat these averages per room, and also carry the most rules, so treat the ranking as where to look, not what a specific house returns.
