## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.88% (okay)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £82,875
- **Target investor price (1%):** £66,300

*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.*
