Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

The only comparable evidence is the same flat, 5B Stonegate, recorded at £105,000 in November 2007. This is a completed sale but is historic and does not establish current market value. The £46,000 guide is an auction guide, not a valuation. Current GDV, rent and refurbishment cost cannot be reliably established from the supplied evidence.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Do not bid on an investment basis until the legal pack confirms the lease position and additional charges, and current rent, condition and market-value evidence are obtained. At present, the opportunity is unquantifiable rather than demonstrably profitable.

Works Required

No refurbishment defects or required works are evidenced. Review the legal pack, EPC, lease and property condition before bidding; any physical works remain unquantified.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

A BRRR assessment is not supportable without a current GDV, rent, refurbishment budget, lease details and finance assumptions. The 2007 same-property sale at £105,000 is insufficient evidence for a current refinance value.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL viability cannot be established because no sufficiently specific rental comparable or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied. The known buyer premium and admin charge total £2,880, before any additional legal-pack, search, seller-cost, transfer or other disbursement charges.

Flip Analysis

A flip appraisal cannot be completed because there is no current GDV or supported refurbishment budget. The historic £105,000 sale should not be treated as current resale value. Additional sale and acquisition costs are also not fully specified.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• The only sale comparable is the same property from November 2007 and may not represent current value.

• No sufficiently specific rental evidence is supplied, so rental yield cannot be calculated.

• The lease is described as a 99-year lease assigned in November 2007, but its commencement and remaining term are not confirmed.

• EPC, heating and parking information is unavailable in the supplied evidence.

• Special Conditions may add search fees, seller costs, legal fees, transfer fees, disbursements and other charges beyond the stated £2,880 buyer premium and admin charge.

Recommendation

Do not bid on an investment basis until the legal pack confirms the lease position and additional charges, and current rent, condition and market-value evidence are obtained. At present, the opportunity is unquantifiable rather than demonstrably profitable.

Strategy Rating

Analysis Confidence

Evidence includes the property description, guide and known auction charges plus one historic same-property sale, but lacks current GDV evidence, rental evidence, condition or works information, EPC details, and complete lease-cost information.
