Description

*Reduced Price* This end of terrace property is offered for sale with no forward chain and its location is excellent. Just a few minutes walk and you will find yourself at the train station and heading in the opposite direction the centre of town. This is an ideal property for a first time buyer, young couple or perhaps someone looking to downsize. It may also attract the attention of an investor looking for a property that requires no work. The property is ready to move into and has recently been redecorated, new carpets laid and benefits from being re-rendered. Stepping inside the property, you will find yourself in the vestibule which leads through to the hallway. In turn the hallway provides access to the lounge, with its feature fireplace. There is a lovely, open plan kitchen/diner with oak breakfast bar and attractive original cupboards. Heading on up to the first floor, you will find a spacious landing which leads to both bedrooms. The bathroom, which is also on the first floor, is accessed via the landing and is certainly very spacious. At the rear of the property there is an L-shaped yard that is spacious and would be a great place for garden furniture or shed if desired. Internal viewing is highly recommended.

Target investor price (1%) £76,000
Gross yield 13.4%
Cost-to-rent ratio 7.5×
Monthly cashflow £391/mo 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term
Cash-on-cash ROI 23.8%
  • Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
  • Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
  • Cashflow — Rent minus 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).
