Investment Analysis

The supplied evidence does not support a current market value or GDV. The five Land Registry comparables are on the same road but are historic sales from 2006–2012 and cannot be reliably adjusted to September 2026 without further evidence. The auction guide is £150,000–£160,000, but it is not a formal valuation.

Proposed Works

The description identifies the property as needing improvement, but does not specify the required works. An internal inspection and legal-pack review are required before pricing any refurbishment. Do not assume particular defects or renovation items from the available evidence.

Rental Value

• No sufficiently specific external rental comparable identified.

BTL Analysis

No sufficiently specific rental evidence or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied, so rent, yield and cash flow cannot be established. The property is described as suitable for investors, but that statement is not evidence of achievable rent or investment performance.

BRRR Analysis

Guide Price: £150,000 - £160,000

A BRRR assessment cannot be quantified because current GDV, refurbishment cost, rent and refinance value are unsupported. Buyer premium, the £2,040 administration charge and potentially payable legal-pack disbursements would also need to be included in a full appraisal.

Flip Analysis

Guide Price: £150,000 - £160,000

A flip appraisal cannot be quantified. Current resale value, improvement cost, selling costs and the scope of works are not evidenced. Historic same-road sales provide context only and are too old to support a current GDV.

Strategy Recommendation

Treat as a potential owner-occupier or refurbishment project only after internal inspection, legal-pack review and independent current valuation. Do not bid solely from the guide price or historic comparables.

Strategy Rating

★★☆☆☆

Key Risks

• The property is stated to need improvement, but the extent and cost of works are unknown.
• No sufficiently specific rental evidence is available, preventing a supported BTL yield calculation.
• The supplied comparable sales are historic transactions from 2006–2012 and do not establish current value.
• The buyer premium, administration charge and potentially payable legal-pack disbursements increase acquisition cost.
• Internal inspection is recommended but no inspection findings are supplied.
• Occupancy details and legal-pack disbursements are not provided.

Analysis Confidence

Low

The property description, tenure, accommodation and auction charges are supplied, but there is no current valuation evidence, rental evidence, refurbishment specification, council tax, parking, heating, occupancy detail or legal-pack information.
