Tenure / Property Information

Investment Analysis

Same-lane completed sales range from £103,000 to £147,000. The two strongest recent evidenced sales were £142,000 in November 2024 and £147,000 in November 2022. Given the subject is described as a well-presented three-bedroom end terrace, £142,000 is used as a cautious base GDV, with £118,000 low and £147,000 high scenarios. Comparable accommodation details and condition are not supplied, so this is an indicative estimate only.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Primarily consider as an owner-occupier purchase or a value-led acquisition. BTL returns appear modest on the only supplied rent evidence, while BRRR depends on achieving the indicative GDV and lender acceptance of the leasehold property.

Works Required

No specific refurbishment works are evidenced. The property is described as well presented and ready to move into or let, with little to no work required. Allow for inspection, routine maintenance and any items identified in the legal pack or survey; these costs cannot be quantified from the supplied evidence.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

Using a £115,000 guide midpoint, zero refurbishment allowance and the known £3,600 administration charge, estimated base cost is £118,600. A 75% refinance against the £142,000 base GDV would be £106,500, leaving approximately £12,100 of the analysed cost unrecovered before finance and tax. Actual refinance depends on lender valuation, affordability and legal/tenure due diligence.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

Using the sole supplied advertised asking rent of £350 pcm, annual rent is £4,200. Against the £115,000 midpoint of the guide this indicates a 3.65% gross yield, reducing to 3.54% after the known £3,600 administration charge. The rental evidence is limited and is not confirmed as the achievable rent for this property; finance, insurance, maintenance, voids, tax and other auction costs are excluded.

Flip Analysis

The base GDV is estimated at £142,000 against analysed acquisition and known administration costs of £118,600, before selling costs, finance, tax and any unforeseen works. No supported selling-cost allowance is supplied, so a reliable flip surplus cannot be calculated. The gross margin before those deductions is £23,400.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• The tenure is stated as leasehold and the remaining legal and financial terms are to be confirmed from the legal pack.

• Buyer premium and other potential auction charges are not quantified; only the £3,600 administration charge is included.

• The £350 pcm figure is a single advertised asking-rent evidence point and is not confirmed as achievable or specific to this property.

• The GDV relies on comparable sales with differing dates and without supplied accommodation or condition details.

• No survey evidence is supplied, so the stated little-to-no-work position has not been independently verified.

• EPC rating is D, with no further energy-performance detail supplied.

Recommendation

Primarily consider as an owner-occupier purchase or a value-led acquisition. BTL returns appear modest on the only supplied rent evidence, while BRRR depends on achieving the indicative GDV and lender acceptance of the leasehold property.
