## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 110.07% (strong)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £99,750
- **Target investor price (1%):** £79,800

*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:** £690/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
