Rent-driven metrics

Based on Area rent estimate.

Rent ratio 0.57%

Target investor price (1%) £121,700

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).
