Why it works
Why to be cautious
Monthly profit −£353/mo — significantly negative — real recurring drain
-17.8% 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.
EPC band not stated — verify the certificate before offering (2030 MEES minimum is band C).
