Investment Analysis


Five same-address leasehold sales are supplied, ranging from £82,000 in 2019 to £119,000 in 2006. The latest sale is historic and the comparable unit details are not confirmed, so a current GDV cannot be supported.


Strategy Recommendation


Do not set a bid or pursue a strategy until the guide price, legal pack, current market evidence, lease costs and rental evidence are obtained.


Works Required


No specific works are evidenced. Review condition, lease, service charge, ground rent and legal-pack requirements before bidding.


Rental & Market Context


No sufficiently specific external rental comparable identified.

Potential BRRR Position


Cannot assess reliably because there is no guide price, current GDV, rent, refurbishment budget or finance-cost information. The 92-year lease requires legal review.


Buy-to-Let Analysis


No sufficiently specific rental evidence or auctioneer rent estimate is supplied, so rent and yield cannot be established. The £2,880 stated buyer premium and administration charge would also need to be allowed for alongside the purchase price.


Flip Analysis


A flip appraisal cannot be supported from historic sales alone. No current GDV, works allowance, purchase price or selling-cost allowance is available.


Investor Risks & Due Diligence


• No guide price is supplied.


• No sufficiently specific rental evidence is supplied.


• The latest comparable sale is from 2019 and may not represent current value.


• Leasehold costs, including service charge and ground rent, are not supplied.


• Legal-pack disbursements and other possible purchaser charges are unknown.


• The 92-year lease requires legal review.


Recommendation


Do not set a bid or pursue a strategy until the guide price, legal pack, current market evidence, lease costs and rental evidence are obtained.
