Why it works
Why to be cautious
- Leasehold 81yr — verify at solicitor
- Service charge unknown — could swing £100-300/mo
- Monthly profit −£684/mo — heavily negative — needs monthly capital injection
- No rent comparables — estimate is a rule-of-thumb fallback, not market data. Verify the rent locally before offering.

How we define each return: On price — gross yield = annual rent ÷ purchase price. On cost — net yield ÷ total project cost (price + refurb + fees). On cash — cash-on-cash & ROI ÷ the actual cash you put in (deposit + costs).
