Hotspots that repeatedly appear in market-data are Liverpool (multiple L postcodes), Sunderland (SR), parts of Glasgow (G), Plymouth (PL4 cited by some lenders), and a clutch of postcodes in the North East, Yorkshire and the Midlands. Several independent data providers (PropertyData, Paragon analysis reported by MoneyWeek, Zoopla and market guides) show typical gross yields in top postcodes running roughly <strong>7\u20139%<\/strong> (and in very specific localities sometimes above 10% for HMOs).
