Investment Analysis

HB estimates: The strongest supplied evidence is a £107,000 completed sale of a comparable semi-detached freehold property on North Road East in October 2020. Earlier local sales were £64,000 in 2013 and £35,000 in 2002. This evidence is limited and dated and does not confirm the subject property’s condition, size, occupancy or exact position.

HB estimate: No reliable current market value or refurbishment allowance can be established from the supplied evidence. The guide price is £39,950+, and the HB maximum bid is £39,950. At this bid, the purchase cost including the stated administration charge is at least £42,350, before any other costs.

No rental comparables or auctioneer rent estimate were supplied. Rental income and yield therefore cannot be assessed; no asking or passing rent is stated.

Strategy & Risks
