Confidence: MEDIUM

This two-bedroom mid-terraced home presents a strong opportunity for first-time buyers or investors looking to acquire a property at a cheap price compared to local averages. With an asking price of £110,000 translating to £197/sqf, it sits at approximately 10.6% below the local average of £221/sqf, making it an appealing entry point for those willing to take on a renovation project.

However, the home is in need of significant modernization, with dated interiors across all rooms, including the living area, kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms. The projected all-in cost, considering the purchase price and a renovation budget of £60,000, stretches against local value benchmarks, indicating a potential challenge in achieving a profitable return. While the location offers good access to amenities and green spaces, the economics of this investment may require careful consideration as you plan your refurbishments.

Key opportunities

  • Good location with easy access to amenities and green spaces.
  • Potential to modernize and add value through significant refurbishment.
  • Manageable garden space for outdoor improvement.

Key risks

  • All-in costs may exceed local value benchmarks, posing a financial risk.
  • The property requires significant work across multiple areas, which could impact timelines and budget.
