Market Comparables
HB desktop market evidence should be read together with the exact property type, condition, tenure and local micro-location. The Low/Base/High GDV range above is a screening range and must be confirmed against recent Land Registry sold evidence before a binding bid is made.

HB works allowance: Low £45,000, Base £75,000, High £120,000. The Base Works figure is used consistently below; a measured survey and contractor pricing are required before commitment.
Rental Value
HB working rental range: £1,200–£1,800 pcm, with £1,500 pcm (£18,000 pa) used as the Base case. This is a desktop estimate rather than passing rent and should be checked against live comparable lettings.
Low / Base / High Investment Scenario
| Low Scenario | GDV £344,000; works £120,000; rent £1,200 pcm |
| Base Scenario | GDV £404,000; works £75,000; rent £1,500 pcm |

| Base Project Cost | £409,627 excluding SDLT |
| Base GDV | £404,000 |
| Estimated Base Surplus | £-5,627 |
| Surplus on Cost | -1.4% |
This is a desktop screening surplus, not net profit. SDLT, tax and any additional selling/professional costs must be included before a final decision.
Commercial Analysis
The specialist strategy must be appraised separately using the actual planning/use position, professional fees, infrastructure or fit-out costs, finance, contingency and an appropriate investor/developer return. Do not rely on a standard residential yield model alone.
Maximum Bid Indicator
| Base GDV | £404,000 |
| Less Base Works | £75,000 |
| Less Auction / Legal / Finance / Holding / Contingency | £35,627 |
| Required Return Allowance | 15% of Base GDV |
| HB Desktop Screening Ceiling | £232,773 |
The HB Desktop Screening Ceiling is an appraisal indicator only, not a formal valuation or instruction to bid. Add buyer-specific SDLT and amend finance/return requirements before use.
Strategy Recommendation
Commercial / Mixed Use. This is the most relevant desktop strategy based on the source property type and current assumptions. Proceed only after legal-pack, survey, funding and market-evidence checks.
Strategy Rating
Commercial Investment ★★★☆☆ | Development ★★★☆☆
Key Risks
- Condition and refurbishment-cost overrun risk.
- Legal title, special conditions and financeability must be checked.
- Desktop GDV and rental assumptions require confirmation against current comparable evidence.
Analysis Confidence
Medium. The supplied individual-lot scrape provides useful source facts, photographs and location data. Confidence remains below High until the legal pack, physical survey and final sold/rental comparable evidence are fully checked.
