Low / Base / High Investment Scenario
| Low | Base | High | |

| Works | £53,000 | £41,750 | £30,500 |
| GDV | £79,000 | £86,000 | £93,000 |
| Rent pcm | £561 | £610 | £659 |
| 75% refinance | £59,250 | £64,500 | £69,750 |
Buy-to-Let
Base rent £610 pcm gives 16.6% gross yield on guide and 8.5% on guide plus midpoint works. These are gross yields before voids, repairs, management, insurance and finance.
BRRR Analysis
Guide £44,000 + midpoint works £41,750 + auction fee allowance £792 + legal/valuation £1,500 + indicative six-month bridge/arrangement cost £2,002 + holding allowance £1,500 gives a pre-SDLT all-in cost of approximately £91,544. At base GDV £86,000, a 75% refinance is £64,500, leaving approximately £27,044 capital in before SDLT. Low/high refinance outcomes are £59,250 / £69,750.
Flip Analysis
Using base GDV £86,000, pre-SDLT all-in cost £91,544 and selling/legal allowance £2,021, indicative pre-tax/pre-SDLT flip surplus is £-7,565. That is approximately -8.3% profit on cost and -8.8% of GDV. A 5% sale-price reduction and 15% works overrun should be stress-tested before bidding.
Maximum Bid Indicator
For an indicative 15% pre-tax profit-on-cost target before SDLT, the desktop purchase ceiling is approximately £32,327. This is a screening figure, not a formal valuation or bidding recommendation.
Strategy Rating
Buy-to-Let: ★★★★☆ | BRRR: ★★★☆☆ | Flip: ★★☆☆☆
Key Risks
Confirm legal title/tenure, occupancy, planning/licensing, service charge/ground rent where relevant, structural condition, utilities, abnormal works and finance terms. Market comparables are indicative and should be refreshed immediately before bidding.
