Rent-driven metrics

Based on OpenRent comparables.

Rent ratio 0.38%
Max investor price (0.8%) £150,000
Target investor price (1%) £120,000
Gross yield 4.5%
Cost-to-rent ratio 22.2×
Monthly cashflow £-205/mo 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term
Cash-on-cash ROI -2.7%
  • 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).
