Cost-to-rent ratio 32.9×
Monthly cashflow £-370/mo 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term

  • 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).
