In accordance with The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017, we are legally required to carry out anti-money laundering (AML) checks on all individuals purchasing a property. In line with HMRC guidelines, our trusted partner, Coadjute, will securely manage these checks to include PEP and Sanctions checks, biometric ID verification and verification of the source of purchase funds, on our behalf. Once an offer is agreed, Coadjute will send a secure link for you to complete the biometric checks electronically. A non-refundable fee of £45 plus VAT will be charged (per individually named purchaser, including parties gifting deposits) for each AML check conducted, and Coadjute will handle the payment for this service. These (AML) checks must be completed before the property is marked as subject to contract and prior to issuing the memorandum of sale to the solicitors, to confirm the sale. Please contact the office if you have any questions in relation to this.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- 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).
