Investment Analysis

HB estimate: the five supplied same-street freehold terraced sales range from £70,000 to £165,000, with a calculated average of £134,700 and median of £155,000. Condition, floor area and specification of the subject property are not supplied, so this is an indicative market benchmark rather than a confirmed valuation.

The £99,950+ guide is below the calculated comparable average. The stated £2,400 administration fee including VAT would make the guide price plus this fee £102,350, before any other purchase costs.

No reliable maximum bid or yield target can be set from the supplied evidence because no rental evidence, refurbishment scope, occupancy information or buyer premium is provided.
