Apartments in George House, Jesmond, have let over three months ahead of last year, according to Newcastle-based Walton Robinson.
The four apartments on Osborne Avenue have all been snapped up ahead of the university Christmas break, as demand for properties in Jesmond increases.
The apartments have seen a rental increase of just over 5%, with little to no spend on improvements from the landlord.
Property Landlord, Mr Belgian said: “This year Walton Robinson managed to let all four flats at George House much earlier than last year and with an increase in rent.
“I was really pleased to see that once again the challenges Walton Robinson has faced hasn’t affected their ability to market and let properties, which is reassuring for me as a managed landlord.”
