Investment Analysis

HB estimates: No GDV, refurbishment cost, rental, yield or maximum bid estimate is available from the supplied evidence. Same-street semi-detached sales range from £78,000 to £169,950, but the bedroom count and condition of the comparables have not been matched to the subject. This is an indicative market benchmark only and not a confirmed valuation.

Proceed only after conveyancing confirms the title and registration position, and after obtaining a physical inspection, refurbishment quotation and local rental evidence. Do not set a maximum bid from the supplied evidence alone. Allow separately for the £2,400 administration fee and any undisclosed buyer premium.
