Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

Same-address leasehold flat sales range from £40,000 to £47,500, with the latest supplied sale at £47,000 on 15 May 2026. The £75,000 sale is materially above the other evidence and is treated as an outlier. Base GDV is therefore estimated at £47,000, with low and high scenarios of £40,000 and £47,500. The apartment is described as well presented and modernised, but the lease and legal position are not supplied.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Potential income-led purchase at or near the guide, subject to confirming the lease, service charge, ground rent, legal pack and achievable rent. Avoid relying on the £75,000 outlier or assuming the advertised £665 pcm is achieved.

Works Required

No specific refurbishment works are identified in the description, which states that the apartment has been modernised and is well presented. Allowance is therefore £0 for quantified refurbishment; inspection, cleaning and any minor remedial items remain subject to viewing and the legal pack.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

Using the £36,000 guide, £0 quantified refurbishment allowance and the £3,600 admin charge, the base cost is £39,600. A 75% refinance against the £47,000 base GDV would be £35,250, leaving indicative cash of £4,350 in before finance, tax and other unknown costs. Actual refinancing depends heavily on the missing lease and legal information, lender criteria and valuation.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

At the £36,000 guide, the supplied same-development asking-rent evidence supports a gross rent range of £550–£665 pcm, equivalent to approximately 18.33%–22.17% gross on the guide. Using £665 pcm gives £7,980 annual rent and 20.15% gross on the £39,600 purchase-plus-known-admin-cost basis. These are asking rents, not achieved rents, and service charge, ground rent, lease length and other costs are unknown.

Flip Analysis

At the base GDV of £47,000, the apparent margin over the £39,600 purchase-plus-known-cost basis is £7,400 before selling costs, finance, tax and any works. Because no supported selling allowance or complete project-cost evidence is available, a formal flip surplus is not calculated. The margin is also sensitive to the lower £40,000 comparable outcome.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• Lease tenure details, lease length, service charge and ground rent are not supplied.

• The £3,600 admin charge is known, but further search, seller, legal, transfer and other auction charges may apply.

• Rental figures are advertised asking rents rather than achieved or passing rents.

• The EPC is rated E.

• The £75,000 comparable is materially above the other supplied same-address sales and may not be representative.

• No viewing or legal-pack evidence confirms whether any minor works or liabilities exist.

Recommendation

Potential income-led purchase at or near the guide, subject to confirming the lease, service charge, ground rent, legal pack and achievable rent. Avoid relying on the £75,000 outlier or assuming the advertised £665 pcm is achieved.

Strategy Rating

Analysis Confidence

There is strong same-address sales evidence and some rental evidence, but the lease, occupancy, service charge, ground rent, full fees, achieved rent and legal-pack details are missing.
