Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

The supplied completed sales on Hill Street range from £190,000 to £390,000, with the two most recent sales at £230,000 in March 2025 and £295,000 in December 2025. However, no comparable floor areas, accommodation details, condition, plot details or adjustment evidence are provided. A reliable GDV or scenario range cannot therefore be established. The £75,000+ guide appears materially below the supplied sale prices, but this may reflect the bungalow's required modernisation and potential consent-dependent alterations.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Proceed only after full inspection, measured survey, planning/Building Regulations review, refurbishment quotation and confirmation of all special-condition fees. Do not rely on the supplied comparables alone to set a maximum bid.

Works Required

Modernise the existing detached bungalow as supported by the description. Investigate, cost and obtain any necessary consents for reconfiguration to three bedrooms or conversion to a chalet bungalow. No specific defects or quantified works are evidenced.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

A BRRR assessment cannot be quantified because refurbishment cost, supported GDV, rent and finance costs are unavailable. The guide plus the £1,500 inclusive buyer premium is at least £76,500 before any seller-charged completion fees and refurbishment, but the refinance outcome cannot be calculated.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL analysis cannot be completed because no sufficiently specific rental comparable or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied. Gross yield, operating costs and debt coverage cannot be established. The property is vacant and requires modernisation.

Flip Analysis

The supplied sales indicate potentially higher values than the guide, but they are not sufficiently detailed to support a property-specific GDV. A flip surplus cannot be calculated because works, GDV and selling costs are unsupported. Seller-charged completion fees may also apply.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• The property is described as requiring modernisation, but the extent and cost of works are not evidenced.

• Three-bedroom reconfiguration and chalet-bungalow conversion are only potential options subject to necessary consents.

• No sufficiently specific rental evidence is available, preventing yield and cash-flow assessment.

• The completed comparables vary substantially in price and lack size, condition and specification details for reliable adjustment.

• The buyer premium is £1,500 inclusive of VAT, and the seller may charge additional completion fees under the special conditions.

• EPC rating E may require improvement depending on the intended letting or future regulatory requirements.

Recommendation

Proceed only after full inspection, measured survey, planning/Building Regulations review, refurbishment quotation and confirmation of all special-condition fees. Do not rely on the supplied comparables alone to set a maximum bid.

Strategy Rating

Analysis Confidence

There is useful address-specific completed-sales evidence and clear tenure, occupancy and accommodation information, but no comparable specifications, rental evidence, quantified works, floor area, planning position or full fee schedule.
