An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

74out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £50,000, this two-bedroom Hull terrace is priced at about £55 per sq ft, well below the local average of £144 per sq ft — a strong entry point for someone looking to acquire and add value. The photos show a medium-scale project: worn floors and dated finishes across several rooms, an incomplete-looking kitchen, and an unfinished loft room. The enclosed paved courtyard is a useful feature, and the EPC C rating is a positive starting point.

The Modern Method of Auction is the sale route; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not remain this cheap. The loft room’s usability and the scope of the visible works are worth checking in person.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at a low price per square foot relative to the local average, leaving room to create value through improvement.
  • Refresh the worn flooring and dated decoration across the photographed living and bedroom spaces.
  • Rework the incomplete-looking kitchen and make the enclosed paved courtyard more inviting with straightforward tidying.
