Investment Analysis

Investment Snapshot

Works Required

• Services testing and compliance

• Targeted kitchen/bathroom repairs where required

• Decoration, flooring and joinery

• Roof/damp/windows/external repairs identified by survey

HB working works allowance: £20,000–£36,000. This is based on the auction description, accommodation and visible condition indicators; replace it with surveyor/contractor evidence before bidding.

Rental & Market Context

HB working market rent is £2,200–£3,100 pcm (£26,400–£37,200 p.a.), based on the bedroom count, property type and postcode market band. This is an HB estimate rather than an auctioneer figure.

Sold within 5m radius

Reliable recent like-for-like sold comparables were not established from the supplied scrape for this individual property. No comparable addresses or prices have been invented. Before bidding, verify the HB end-value range against HM Land Registry / current local sold evidence, matching property type, size, tenure, condition and micro-location.

GDV Assessment

HB indicative end value is £440,000–£825,000. For residential/income assets this is derived from the working market-rent range and a local gross-yield band of approximately 4.5%–6.0%, then checked against the current guide. Confidence is medium because a property-level sold-comparable set has not yet been verified.

Strategy Recommendation

Preferred strategy: BRRR / Buy-to-Let. The working purchase range is £59,000–£66,000 and the works allowance is £20,000–£36,000. The key question is whether the legal pack, condition and local market evidence support the income/end-value assumptions without exhausting contingency.

Potential BRRR Position

Standard residential BRRR is not the primary strategy. Refinance should be based on sustainable commercial/tenancy income, covenant, use class, lease length and specialist lender valuation.

Flip Analysis

Illustrative scenario: purchase £62,500, works £28,000, plus approximately £17,650 for acquisition, finance/holding and selling costs. Total working cost is about £108,150 against a mid-point end value of £632,500, giving an indicative pre-tax margin of £524,350 (82.9% of GDV). On these assumptions the flip is viable and is sensitive to bid competition, refurbishment overspend and resale evidence.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• Read the complete Bond Wolfe legal pack and special conditions, including buyer/admin fees

• Verify title, tenure, lease length, tenancy agreements and vacant-possession status

• Replace HB works assumptions with surveyor/contractor pricing

• Confirm mortgage/bridging and insurance availability for the exact asset type

• Re-check local rents and property-level sold comparables immediately before bidding

Maximum Bid Analysis

Guide £59,000+. HB considers the deal strongest around £59,000–£66,000. Above approximately £66,000, the conservative end-value/refinance margin begins to weaken materially. This is an investment sensitivity indicator, not a valuation or instruction to bid.

Recommendation

Overall HB view: BRRR / Buy-to-Let. Risk level: High; analysis confidence: Medium. The principal sensitivities are end value, rent and refurbishment cost. Proceed only if legal and physical due diligence supports the assumptions and leaves adequate contingency.

Strategy Rating

Buy-to-Let/Income: ★★★★☆ | BRRR: ★★★☆☆ | Flip: ★★★☆☆
