Opportunity
Not scored as an opportunity

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

After a 8% void allowance, 15% management and 10% maintenance. Lender coverage (rent ÷ interest): 4.07 - clears the usual 1.25 test. These are your assumptions, not evidence: only the pre-filled rent and price come from the record.

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.
