Investment Analysis

The supplied completed sales (£260,000–£300,000, with three sales in 2025–2026) relate to nearby completed freehold houses, not land. They provide residential context only and cannot establish the value of this parcel without its area, boundaries, planning status, access, services, title and a defined development scheme. The £1,000 guide is not sufficient evidence of land value or development viability.

Investment Snapshot

Strategy Recommendation

Do not rely on the £1,000 guide as an investment valuation. Only consider bidding after reviewing the legal pack and confirming planning potential, site constraints, access, services, title and all buyer or additional charges.

Works Required

No physical works can be reliably specified from the evidence. The key requirement is investigation of planning prospects, title, boundaries, access, services and any development constraints before considering a scheme.

Rental & Market Context

Sold Comparables

The following completed sales were identified within approximately 5 miles:

Potential BRRR Position

BRRR analysis is not supportable. There is no evidenced existing dwelling, development consent, scheme, GDV, works budget, rent or refinance basis. The nearby house sales cannot be applied directly as a GDV.

Buy-to-Let Analysis

BTL analysis is not possible because the asset is a parcel of land with no accommodation and no sufficiently specific rental evidence. A completed residential development would need to be defined before rent or yield could be assessed.

Flip Analysis

A flip appraisal cannot be calculated. Although nearby completed house sales are available, the parcel's size, permitted use, number and type of potential units, planning position and development costs are unknown. No supported GDV or selling allowance is available.

Investor Risks & Due Diligence

• Residential development is expressly subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.

• Site area, boundaries, access, services and title information are not supplied.

• No development scheme or number and type of potential dwellings is evidenced.

• The nearby completed house sales are not direct land comparables.

• Buyer Premium and any additional charges are not quantified; further fees may apply under the legal pack.

• There is no sufficiently specific rental evidence or auctioneer rent estimate.

Recommendation

Do not rely on the £1,000 guide as an investment valuation. Only consider bidding after reviewing the legal pack and confirming planning potential, site constraints, access, services, title and all buyer or additional charges.
