Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

Same-building completed sales provide the strongest evidence: £128,750 in March 2025, £150,000 in January 2026 and £160,000 in October 2024. Because the evidence does not identify the individual flats, sizes, condition or transaction circumstances, these sales support an indicative range rather than a formal valuation. A base GDV of £145,000 is used, with £128,750 low and £160,000 high scenarios.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Investigate as a potential value-led purchase or resale opportunity, subject to inspection, lease and management-pack review, and confirmation of service charge and achievable rent. Do not rely on BTL or BRRR returns until rental evidence and costs are verified.

Works Required

No specific defects or required works are disclosed. No refurbishment allowance is included in the calculations; inspection should confirm condition, kitchen, bathroom, decoration, balcony and communal-area requirements.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

Using the £75,000 guide, £1,200 buyer premium and £3,600 minimum admin charge, base cost is £79,800 before finance, tax, service charge and any works. A 75% refinance against the £145,000 base GDV is £108,750, implying £28,950 more than the stated base cost before those excluded items. This is indicative only because valuation, rent, condition, lender criteria and service charge are unconfirmed.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL appraisal cannot be completed because no sufficiently specific rental evidence or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied. At the £75,000 guide, known acquisition costs used are the £1,200 buyer premium and the £3,600 minimum admin charge; service charge is not stated and would materially affect cash flow and yield.

Flip Analysis

At the guide and with no works allowance, the base project cost used is £79,800 including the supplied buyer and minimum admin charges. Against the £145,000 base GDV, this indicates a £65,200 gross spread before finance, tax, selling costs, legal costs, service charge and any refurbishment. A formal flip surplus cannot be established because no selling allowance or condition evidence is supplied.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• Same-address comparables are not confirmed to be the same flat or directly comparable in size, condition or specification.

• No rental evidence is available, so rental yield and BTL affordability cannot be assessed.

• Service charge is not stated and may materially affect ownership costs and resaleability.

• No condition survey or refurbishment specification is supplied.

• Additional auction costs may include searches, sellers' costs, legal fees and transfer fees.

• Leasehold management, communal-area and balcony matters require legal and physical due diligence.

Recommendation

Investigate as a potential value-led purchase or resale opportunity, subject to inspection, lease and management-pack review, and confirmation of service charge and achievable rent. Do not rely on BTL or BRRR returns until rental evidence and costs are verified.

Strategy Rating

Analysis Confidence

Three recent completed sales at the same address support a useful GDV range, but the unit-specific comparability, condition, rent, service charge, EPC and other property costs are not evidenced.
