Not scored as an opportunity
We will not put a number on this one.
What we could establish
gross yield 10.3%; range width penalty ×1.00
0 price cut(s), 5 days on market; calibration: cuts mark staleness, credited as negotiation context only
83 sales/12mo in area; valuation range width 40%
Withholding a score is deliberate. A number built on missing or stale inputs would look more certain than the evidence allows.
What happens to your money
At the asking price
Evidenced range £1,450-£1,600
After a 8% void allowance, 15% management and 10% maintenance. Lender coverage (rent ÷ interest): 2.55 - clears the usual 1.25 test. These are your assumptions, not evidence: only the pre-filled rent and price come from the record.
Where every number comes from
What could kill this deal
Score confidence is low
largely a single source - treat the number as a prompt, not a conclusion
Valuation edge could not be scored
estimate confidence LOW below scoring floor (measured MdAPE 25.8%)
Rental economics needs verification before you rely on it
rent estimate 1550/mo (range 1450-1600)
Rental economics needs verification before you rely on it
listing text signals condition works - budget before trusting any yield
Property risk deep-dive →flood, subsidence, crime, environment - the full domain
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. Fill the valuation edge gap before relying on the score.
estimate confidence LOW below scoring floor (measured MdAPE 25.8%)
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.
