Description

A hugely spacious detached home situated in the sought after Mount Grace development which sits in its own backwater location behind the Stonebow Washlands, a renowned local wildlife site near to Gorse Covert shopping centre. The property is a largely unfinished project which will require construction work and general cosmetic finishing but offers a tremendous opportunity for the right buyer to create a substantial four reception room, five bedroom, three bathroom (2300+ square feet) home with double garage and substantial corner plot.

Gross yield 4.2%
Cost-to-rent ratio 23.8×
Monthly cashflow £-326/mo 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term

  • 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).
