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

72out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £190,000, this three-bedroom semi-detached house is priced around 19% below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a genuine opportunity to acquire. The occupied home looks broadly usable, with a driveway, front lawn and a good-sized rear garden described in the listing.

The project is mainly cosmetic: dated finishes across the living spaces and bedrooms offer scope to refresh the décor and flooring, while the bathroom’s carpeted floor is a distinctive detail to address. The £5,000–£13,000 renovation range indicates a light-scale project, and the overall figures support a good opportunity without treating the local average as a guaranteed resale value.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at an asking price around 19% below the local average per square foot.
  • Refresh dated décor and flooring across the living spaces and bedrooms.
  • Make use of the driveway, front lawn and good-sized rear garden described in the listing.
