Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

The closest evidence is 352A Kingston Road at £230,000 in December 2025, with other nearby leasehold flat sales at £210,000 and £230,000 in 2022. These sales do not provide bedroom, condition or remaining-lease details, so the subject’s approximately 61-year lease and refurbishment requirement cannot be quantified reliably. A cautious evidence-based GDV range is £210,000–£230,000, with £220,000 as a working base estimate.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Proceed only subject to legal-pack review, confirmation of lease terms and charges, a survey, refurbishment quotations and local rental evidence. Do not rely on the guide price or provisional GDV until the approximately 61-year lease is fully assessed.

Works Required

Refurbishment is required, but the supplied evidence does not specify the condition, defects or required scope. Obtain a survey, refurbishment schedule and contractor quotations before bidding. The EPC is currently rated D.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

At the £120,000 guide, the known administration charge is £1,800 and the indicative refinance at 75% of the £220,000 base GDV is £165,000. However, refurbishment cost, acquisition costs, rent, service charges, ground rent and lender criteria are unknown, so cash required and refinance viability cannot be confirmed.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL assessment cannot be established because no sufficiently specific rental comparable or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied. The £1,800 administration charge is known, but refurbishment, finance, service-charge, ground-rent and other purchase costs are not provided.

Flip Analysis

A provisional base GDV of £220,000 is supported by nearby completed sales, but the comparable properties’ bedroom, condition and lease details are not supplied. Refurbishment costs, selling costs and other acquisition costs are unknown, so a reliable flip surplus or maximum bid cannot be calculated.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• Approximately 61 years remain on the lease, which may affect mortgageability, value and resaleability.

• The flat is described as needing refurbishment, but the scope and cost are unknown.

• No sufficiently specific rental evidence is available, so BTL yield cannot be established.

• The comparables do not state bedroom count, condition or remaining lease terms.

• Additional disbursements may be payable under the legal pack.

• Buyer premium, service charge, ground rent, finance costs and other acquisition costs are not supplied.

Recommendation

Proceed only subject to legal-pack review, confirmation of lease terms and charges, a survey, refurbishment quotations and local rental evidence. Do not rely on the guide price or provisional GDV until the approximately 61-year lease is fully assessed.

Strategy Rating

Analysis Confidence

There are several nearby completed sales and a stated lease term, but the comparables lack key detail and there is no usable rental, refurbishment-cost, service-charge, ground-rent or full-fee evidence.
