Investment Analysis

HB estimates only: the five supplied freehold terraced sales have an average of £98,900. The two 2025 sales have an average of £102,500. The £115,000+ guide is approximately 12.2% above both the five-sale average and the 2025 average.

HB estimates a gross yield of 18.26% using the advertised £1,750 pcm rent and the £115,000 guide price, before costs and voids. Including the known £2,400 administration fee, the effective gross yield is estimated at 17.89%.

The £1,750 pcm figure is based on advertised rental evidence and is not an achieved or passing rent. No refurbishment estimate or maximum bid has been provided. A maximum bid cannot be calculated responsibly without verified rent, operating costs, tenancy details and an agreed target return.
