Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

The strongest evidence is 44 Ardenfield, a semi-detached property sold for £325,000 in February 2025. Older same-street sales range from £204,000 to £235,000 between 2021 and 2022. A provisional base GDV of £325,000 is used, but the comparables do not confirm condition, specification, tenure or extension potential, so this is an indicative estimate rather than a formal valuation. A lower scenario of £235,000 reflects the older comparable evidence; no supported value above £325,000 is available.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Conditional refurbishment-led resale or BRRR assessment only after a full survey, written refurbishment quotations, tenure review and confirmation of special-condition fees. Do not rely on the supplied rent evidence for a BTL decision.

Works Required

Undertake a survey-led programme of refurbishment and updating. The description does not specify individual defects or costs. Investigate the large rear garden's extension potential separately, subject to planning and all relevant approvals.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

Using the provisional £325,000 base GDV, a 75% refinance would be approximately £243,750. However, the refurbishment allowance and complete acquisition costs are unknown, so cash left in, equity and project viability cannot be calculated. The £185,000 guide would attract a stated buyer premium of £3,330, before any other applicable costs.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL analysis cannot be established reliably. The only rental evidence is an advertised £1,900 pcm listing in Thame, which is not the subject location, and no auctioneer rent estimate is supplied. Refurbishment costs, tenure and total acquisition cost are also unknown.

Flip Analysis

The provisional gross spread between the £185,000 guide and £325,000 base GDV is £140,000 before the buyer premium, refurbishment, finance, selling costs, taxation and any other charges. Because the works scope and costs are not supplied, a reliable flip surplus or maximum bid cannot be calculated.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• Refurbishment scope and cost are not specified.

• Tenure and lease information are unavailable.

• The large-garden extension potential is subject to planning and is not guaranteed.

• The available rental evidence relates to Thame rather than Denton and is only an advertised asking rent.

• Additional fees may be listed in the Special Conditions of Sale.

• The £325,000 GDV indication is based on comparables whose condition and specification are not supplied.

Recommendation

Conditional refurbishment-led resale or BRRR assessment only after a full survey, written refurbishment quotations, tenure review and confirmation of special-condition fees. Do not rely on the supplied rent evidence for a BTL decision.

Strategy Rating

Analysis Confidence

There are several same-street completed sales and a clear property description, but refurbishment costs, tenure, occupancy, EPC, finance costs, selling costs and relevant local rental evidence are missing. The most recent comparable may not be condition-matched.
