16.96% Rent by the room return before costs — market rent unverified, verify rent + comps locally.
Why it works
- 9.50% return before costs — above-market
- 17.0% Rent by the room return before costs (net 8.18% after CapEx + bills) — conversion play
- 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.
- EPC band not stated — verify the certificate before offering (2030 MEES minimum is band C).
