- **Deviation:** +26.3%

## Rental Range

*ONS Price Index of Private Rents (Rhondda Cynon Taf). Low / Realistic / Optimistic = conservative / average / best case.*

- **Low:** £672/mo
- **Realistic:** £747/mo
- **Optimistic:** £822/mo

## Rental Comparables

*Residential lets from OpenRent and Rightmove for the area (same bedroom count). Use to validate rent estimates. Student lets are excluded.*

| Title | Rent | Beds | Distance | As seen on |
|------|------|------|------|------|
| 3 Bed Terraced House, Ann Street, CF44 | £800/mo | 3 | 0.85 miles | OpenRent |
| 3 Bed Terraced House, Unity Street, CF44 | £695/mo | 3 | 1.23 miles | OpenRent |

**Average rent: £748/mo (2 listings)**

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.31% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £93,500
- **Target investor price (1%):** £74,800

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*

## Rent-driven metrics

*Based on OpenRent comparables (median £748/mo).*

- **Gross yield:** 3.7%
- **Cost-to-rent:** 26.8×
- **Monthly cashflow:** £-297/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -5.1%

*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).*

## Capital growth trend

*Land Registry outcode average from sold prices: last 12 months vs 5y and 10y ago.*

- **5y growth:** 12.5%
- **10y growth:** 11%
