Investment Analysis

The following figures are HB estimates, not formal valuations. The £105,000 guide price is only weakly supported by the supplied evidence. The sold comparables are terraced properties in Hull rather than cottages in Bridlington and are not reliable direct comparables. No defensible HB GDV, refurbishment allowance or maximum bid can be calculated from the supplied information.

• HB estimated rent: £1,100–£1,200 pcm. This is an indicative asking-rent proxy only, based on advertised rents for three-bedroom flats in YO15; it is not achieved or passing rent and does not relate to the same property type.
• HB estimated gross yield: 12.57%–13.71%.
• HB estimated GDV: Not available.
• HB estimated refurbishment allowance: Not available.
• HB estimated maximum bid: Not available.
• Auctioneer estimated rent: Not supplied.

These HM Land Registry sold comparables are in Hull and are terraced properties, not Bridlington cottages, so they should not be treated as direct valuation evidence.

Rental Evidence

The following is advertised rental evidence, not achieved or passing rent:

Area / Source Description	Bedrooms	Type	Advertised Asking Rent
YO15, Bridlington, Bempton, Buckton, Carnaby	3	Flat/Apartment	£1,100 pcm
Promenade, YO15, East Riding of Yorkshire	3	Flat/Apartment	£1,200 pcm

The evidence relates to advertised rents for three-bedroom flats and is not directly comparable with this cottage.

Strategy & Risks

• Obtain a Bridlington cottage valuation, inspect the property and confirm occupancy and condition before bidding.
• Property condition and refurbishment requirements are unknown.
• Occupancy information is not supplied.
• Sold comparables are in Hull and are terraced properties, not Bridlington cottages.
• Rental evidence is advertised asking rent, not achieved rent, and relates to flats rather than a cottage.
• The guide price is stated as plus fees; only the £1,800 buyer premium and £1,200 administration charge are quantified.
• No defensible maximum bid can be calculated without reliable local valuation, condition and investment assumptions.
• The property is Grade II listed and any proposed use or works may require appropriate consents.
• Its position next door to a fish & chip restaurant and associated considerations should be investigated, particularly by non-cash buyers.
