RENTAL APPRAISAL

An interesting lot with huge potential to be reconfigured into much better letting properties. Even if you just reconfigured the current layouts you could get more beds into the flats to increase yield. The flat accessed by the main front door (currently one bed) could be a two bedroom flat. The top floor flat (with appropiate consents) be relatively easily a four bed property (currently one bed). The basement flat would remain as a one bed. Over all each room would let at ?500 which would generate monthly income of ?3,500.If you were looking long term rental it would be worth configruing the property (with appropiate consents) into two separate maisonettes. The lower one would be a four bed property and the top flat would become a five bed. The conversion would be relatively easy and would generate an income of circa ?4,500 pcm (?54,000 pa)If you have any questions or queries regarding this valuation please contact us on 0117 911 3423, 07854 367 689 or [email protected]

EPC

For full details of the EPC please refer to the online legal pack.

BUYER'S PREMIUM

Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a ?1000 + VAT (?1,200 inc VAT) buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.

GUIDE PRICE

An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

RESERVE PRICE

The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
