4 of 4 components scored. Ranks on gross yield, the stress margin, risk and disclosed facts. A pricing claim earns only its measured edge: today 0 for the market estimate and at most +0.5pp for sold evidence. The score itself is not yet checked against the outcomes of homes it scored.

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): 1.32 - 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. Treat the gap to the estimate as unproven - compare recent sold prices on the street yourself before pricing an offer around it.
On later completions, homes listed below their estimate sold at the same share of the asking price as the rest.
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.

Remove the Holly tree to remove any future issues due to the close proximity to the building, currently 18 inch from the building at gutter height. Replant in a different location of the garden the same species.

Lime tree - Re-pollard to its established previous pollard points, removing the regrowth that has developed since the last pollarding in 2012. The work is intended to reinstate the trees former pollarded form following approximately 14 years without this maintenance. An application was submitted in autumn 2025 for a reduction of approximately 2 metres. However, following further consultation with several arborists during 2026, the recommendation has been to re-pollard the lime tree to its established previous pollard points. The proposed works have therefore been revised in light of this professional advice, with the intention of reinstating the trees previous management regime following the last pollarding in 2012.
