Why this could be an opportunity

Low confidence0 independent sourcesLead to verifyListing checked 4 Nov 2026

This rests largely on a single source. Treat the score as a prompt to investigate, not a conclusion.

Check before relying on this score: leasehold with no service charge disclosed - the stress test assumes GBP 0. It ranks after every home whose inputs are verified.

Economics

What happens to your money

Price sensitivity

£191,000£293,000

The same scorer re-run at hypothetical asking prices, holding rent, comps and listing history constant. Not a prediction of what the seller would accept.

After a 8% void allowance, 15% management and 10% maintenance. Lender coverage (rent ÷ interest): 1.34 - clears the usual 1.25 test. These are your assumptions, not evidence: only the pre-filled rent and price come from the record.

Plan

Before you offer

1. Get two written rental appraisals from local lettings agents.
The rent estimate rests on area-level evidence, not lettings on this street.
2. Ask the agent why the price was reduced and whether a previous sale fell through.
1 price cut(s) recorded on the listing history.
3. 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.

DM/2026/01198
This application is made under Section 191 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 for a Lawful Development Certificate confirming that the existing use of the annexe at Hawksbill House as an independent, self-contained single private dwellinghouse within Use Class C3 is lawful. The annexe was originally granted planning permission under reference DC/2009/00909, subject to a condition requiring it to remain ancillary to Hawksbill House. The annexe was subsequently extended under planning permission DC/2016/00636. The annexe has, however, been occupied and used as an independent residential dwelling, separate and autonomous from Hawksbill House, since at least November 2013. The independent residential use has continued continuously to the present date. The occupants have maintained the annexe as a separate household and the annexe has functioned independently from the main dwelling.

The proposal is confined to the first floor. No alterations are proposed to the principal external elevations, and the existing windows, shop front and other external architectural features are to be retained unaltered. The first floor is recorded as having been in residential use at an earlier date before its more recent use as an estate agent's office (Class A2).
