Investment Analysis

HB estimates only: HB estimated GDV is £44,190, subject to unknown condition, specification and occupancy. The five same-street completed sales range from £39,000 to £60,000, with a simple average of £44,190 and a median of £40,000. The £60,000 sale is an apparent upper outlier.

• HB estimated rent range: £350–£575 pcm. These are advertised asking rents, not achieved or passing rents.
• HB estimated gross yield range: 8.86%–14.56%, calculated on the £45,000 guide plus the £2,400 administration fee, before finance, repairs, voids, management and other costs.
• HB maximum bid: £42,000.

HB’s strategy is to bid cautiously and not exceed £42,000, subject to legal pack review and confirmation of condition, possession and any property-specific costs. At £42,000 plus the £2,400 administration fee, the purchase cost before other costs is £44,400, broadly aligned with the completed-sales evidence.

Strategy & Risks

• HB recommends a maximum bid of £42,000, subject to legal pack review and confirmation of condition, possession and property-specific costs.
• Property condition and refurbishment requirements are not supplied, so no refurbishment allowance can be estimated.
• Occupancy status is blank; vacant possession, tenancy and any access implications are unconfirmed.
• Rental evidence is limited and consists of advertised asking rents rather than achieved rents. Bedroom matching is incomplete for the £575 listing.
• The £60,000 comparable is materially above the other completed sales and may not be directly comparable.
• The £2,400 auction administration fee is included in the stated all-in bid comparison, but other purchase, finance, letting and operating costs are not supplied.
