Well shock horror the latest pearl of wisdom form the NLA is that student rentals offer comparatively high yields. The average is 6.7% compared to the average in the UK of 6.1%.
What they don't mention is the increased costs of renting to students. If I was only getting a 6.7% gross rental yield on my student let unless I was in central London I'd be very disappointed. Try double digits to compensate you for the additional costs and hassle!

6.7% is poor in this market. I wont touch anything below 10%
