Opportunity

We will not put a number on this one.

listing is 'Sold subject to contract' - sale already progressing, not an actionable opportunity

Withholding a score is deliberate. A number built on missing or stale inputs would look more certain than the evidence allows.

Risks

What could kill this deal

Score confidence is low
largely a single source - treat the number as a prompt, not a conclusion

Property risk deep-dive →flood, subsidence, crime, environment - the full domain

Plan

Before you offer

1. Commission a full structural survey, not a basic condition report.
The score prices market evidence, not the fabric of the building.

Every step above was generated from a specific gap or flag in the evidence - no generic advice, no invented tasks.

P26/S4967/TPO
Description of Proposed Works: T1 (Cherry): Crown reduction on the eastern canopy facing the house. Prune overhanging lateral branches extending towards the roof by up to 3 metres, back to suitable growth points / target pruning cuts, leaving a clear clearance of approximately 3 metres from the building elevation and roof line. All works to be carried out in accordance with BS 3998:2010. Justification for the Works: To maintain reasonable clearance between the tree canopy and the house, preventing direct contact with the roof, gutters, and cladding. This will mitigate gutter blockages, reduce dampness caused by overhang, prevent structural abrasion during high winds, and maintain light levels to ground-floor and bedroom windows.
