At NGU Homes, 3-beds are averaging £574 a month right now - real, achieved rents, not estimates. If yours is lower, you might be undercharging. And if you're not local, that's exactly what we're here for - real numbers you can trust, and someone on the ground handling it for you.
📍 Real rents, by bedroom count
| By bedrooms | Avg. rent achieved | Sample |

| 3 bed | £574 | 8 properties |
These are genuinely real numbers from across the town - including a strong cluster of 8 properties in TS25 alone, averaging £618 a month - not projections pulled from a portal.

📍 Managed locally, wherever you are
Every rent review above was handled start to finish by our own team on the ground in the North East - the tenant conversation, the Section 13 notice, the paperwork. If you're not local yourself, that's the whole point: you get the return, and we handle the hassle.
