Caution
8.19% return before costs — market rent unverified, verify rent + comps locally.
Why it works
- 8.19% return before costs — above-market
- Stress Rent-covers-mortgage check PASS at 6.5% rate stress — lender-friendly
Why to be cautious
- Service charge unknown — could swing £100-300/mo
- Monthly profit −£144/mo — mildly negative — equity build may cover
- -2.8% 5y IRR — capital outlay disproportionate to returns
- No rent comparables — estimate is a rule-of-thumb fallback, not market data. Verify the rent locally before offering.
