Investment Analysis

Investment Snapshot

Underwriting basis. This is an indicative desktop appraisal. GDV is an estimated post-works/open-market value, not a guaranteed valuation. Comparable research is widened from the same street/postcode to the surrounding market up to approximately five miles where necessary.

Market Comparables

• 79 Rangeley Road – current modelled value £222,281

• 77 Rangeley Road – current modelled value £222,281

• Current modelled rent for this house type £1,101 pcm

HB estimated GDV: £204,000 low / £222,000 base / £240,000 high. The range reflects comparable quality, condition and the fact that auction stock can trade below normal owner-occupier market value.

Proposed Works

The allowance follows the auction description/visible condition and investor-standard refurbishment scope. It is not a structural survey or contractor quotation.

Rental Value

Working market rent is approximately £1,101 pcm (£13,212 pa). For scenario testing, use roughly £1,013 / £1,101 / £1,189 pcm for low/base/high cases. This is an indicative market-rent estimate and should be read alongside any passing tenancy stated by the auctioneer.

Low / Base / High Investment Scenario

Buy-to-Let

Base rent £1,101 pcm gives 10.2% gross yield on guide and 7.7% on guide plus midpoint works. These are gross yields before voids, repairs, management, insurance and finance.

BRRR Analysis

Guide £130,000 + midpoint works £41,750 + auction fee allowance £2,340 + legal/valuation £1,500 + indicative six-month bridge/arrangement cost £5,915 + holding allowance £1,500 gives a pre-SDLT all-in cost of approximately £183,005. At base GDV £222,000, a 75% refinance is £166,500, leaving approximately £16,505 capital in before SDLT. Low/high refinance outcomes are £153,000 / £180,000.

Flip Analysis

Using base GDV £222,000, pre-SDLT all-in cost £183,005 and selling/legal allowance £3,952, indicative pre-tax/pre-SDLT flip surplus is £35,043. That is approximately 19.1% profit on cost and 15.8% 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 £142,808. 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.
