Strong investment fundamentals.
Why it works
- Monthly profit +£329/mo from completion — the no.1 reason to invest
- 8.85% return before costs — above-market
- Priced below market -10% vs 12 nearby sold (last 12 mo) — instant equity
- Stress Rent-covers-mortgage check PASS at 6.5% rate stress — lender-friendly
Why to be cautious
- No rent comparables — estimate is a rule-of-thumb fallback, not market data. Verify the rent locally before offering.
