Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £145,000, this 926 sq ft Selly Oak maisonette is priced at about £157 per sq ft, around half the local average—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to acquire and add value. The first-floor layout has a separate living room and kitchen, a private side entrance and scope for a medium-scale refresh, including updating the kitchen and bathroom, décor and flooring. The asking price plus the stated renovation midpoint comes to £187,500 before fees; that is a useful comparison with the local average, not a predicted resale value.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at a substantial discount to the local £/sq ft average, with the asking price at about £157 per sq ft.
  • Refresh the dated kitchen and bathroom and update décor and flooring to create a more contemporary home.
  • Make use of the separate living room, private side entrance and Selly Oak location near the university and QE Hospital.

Key risks

  • Extensive belongings obscure parts of the floors and surfaces, so some interior condition is difficult to assess.
  • The available exterior views do not confirm the detailed condition of the roof or shared building fabric.
