## Description

Located in the popular area of Whiddon Valley, is this well presented and modern 2 bedroom end of terrace house which has been re-decorated throughout and also benefits from a good size rear garden, a new lean too shed providing excellent storage and ample communal parking. 

Being situated on a good size plot, the property does present the opportunity to extend to the side and rear, subject to any necessary planning consents.

Situated in the popular area of Whiddon Valley, on the outskirts of the town, the property is within easy walking distance of schools, shops, pubs and out of town superstores.

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.4% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £101,250
- **Target investor price (1%):** £81,000

*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 £810/mo).*

- **Gross yield:** 4.7%
- **Cost-to-rent:** 21.1×
- **Monthly cashflow:** £-103/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -2.1%

*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).*
