Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

The £65,000 guide is the only property-specific price evidence. The five nearby Church Walk sales are completed transactions but appear to be detached residential or other freehold properties, with no comparable commercial use, floor areas or condition information. They cannot support a reliable commercial GDV.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Do not bid on the current evidence. Obtain the legal pack, commercial valuation, condition survey, planning/use advice and full cost schedule before considering purchase.

Works Required

No specific works are evidenced. Verify condition, services, accessibility, fire safety, asbestos, EPC requirements and any proposed-use planning or licensing consents.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

BRRR cannot be assessed reliably without a supported commercial GDV, refurbishment budget, achievable rent, operating costs and refinance terms. The £65,000 guide excludes the stated minimum £1,500 administration charge and other possible special-condition costs.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL analysis cannot be established. No sufficiently specific rental evidence or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied, and the property is commercial rather than identified as residential accommodation.

Flip Analysis

A flip surplus cannot be calculated because no supported commercial resale value, works allowance or selling-cost allowance is available. Nearby sales are not sufficiently comparable.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• No supported commercial market value or GDV.

• No rental evidence or passing rent.

• Condition and refurbishment requirements are unknown.

• Alternative uses require necessary consents.

• Minimum £1,500 administration charge applies, with other possible legal, search, transfer and seller-cost disbursements.

• Commercial compliance, EPC, fire-safety and accessibility status are not supplied.

Recommendation

Do not bid on the current evidence. Obtain the legal pack, commercial valuation, condition survey, planning/use advice and full cost schedule before considering purchase.
