| Title | Rent | Beds | Distance | As seen on |

| 4 Bed End Terrace, Litchfield Close, CO15 | £1,700/mo | 4 | 0.48 miles | OpenRent |

**Average rent: £1,775/mo (2 listings)**

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.47% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £221,875
- **Target investor price (1%):** £177,500

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*

- **Monthly cashflow:** £96/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** 1.1%

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
