## Description

A good investment opportunity to purchase a two bedroom mid terrace house requiring general updating and modernisation situated close to Newark town.  In brief living accommodation comprises a lounge, dining room and a kitchen.  The first floor landing leads to two bedrooms and a bathroom off the second bedroom.  Outside there is a small walled front garden and a lawned rear garden.  The property is available with no chain.   Newark has become an increasingly popular place to live. Undoubtedly the Georgian Market Square, the 12th Century castle and the wonderful riverside areas with a variety of restaurants are attractive parts of the town, both for locals and for tourists. Industry and commerce have expanded tremendously during the last few years. Road communications are good with the A1 bypassing the town and intersecting with the A46.  Many commute from the area to Lincoln and Nottingham. Fast GNER trains are capable of journey times between Newark Northgate and London Kings Cross in approximately 90 minutes.

- **Rent ratio:** 1% (strong)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £87,500
- **Target investor price (1%):** £70,000

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − 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).*
