Buy-to-let landlords looking to make decent returns on student properties might want to consider
Scotland – with Edinburgh, Glasgow and Stirling coming out top of a hotspots list.
To make the findings, Zoopla analysed rental data for four-bedroomed homes – the type of property students may be sharing – in 127 university towns and cities across the UK in September.
It identified the the best and worst-performing locations by the average gross rental yield that landlords might expect to get.
Edinburgh came out top, with landlords expected to see a yield of around 6.59%.
