Birmingham CIL bites on city schemes; HMO yield path strong in Coventry.
Birmingham CIL
- Birmingham CIL is significant on city schemes. Always model it as a per-sqm line, not a percentage of GDV.
- Coventry HMO yield path stays strong on student stock.
HMO yields in West Midlands
- Coventry, Wolverhampton and Birmingham university suburbs trade student HMOs on 8 to 10 percent gross yields.
- Capitalised GDV proxies hold where Land Registry comparables are thin.
