Rental & Market Context
The auctioneer/addendum states current income of £11,000 p.a. This is approximately 20.0% gross on the current guide. HB's working market-rent range is £875–£1,100 pcm (£10,500–£13,200 p.a.). Compare the market range with the existing tenancy terms before assuming any uplift.
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 £175,000–£295,000. 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 £55,000–£62,000 and the works allowance is £17,000–£31,000. 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
Using a mid-point purchase of £58,500 and mid-point works of £24,000, purchase + works is about £82,500 before SDLT, auction fees and finance. A 75% refinance on the HB £175,000–£295,000 end-value range is approximately £131,250–£221,250. At the mid-point, around £0 of purchase-and-works capital remains in the deal before acquisition/finance costs. HB BRRR rating: Strong.
Flip Analysis
Illustrative scenario: purchase £58,500, works £24,000, plus approximately £9,380 for acquisition, finance/holding and selling costs. Total working cost is about £91,880 against a mid-point end value of £235,000, giving an indicative pre-tax margin of £143,120 (60.9% 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 £55,000+. HB considers the deal strongest around £55,000–£62,000. Above approximately £62,000, 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: ★★★☆☆
