Sample output
### Snapshot Table | Category | Value | | --- | --- | | Price | £220,000 | | Gross Rent | £15,000 (£1,250/mo) | | Gross Yield % | 6.82% (£15,000 / £220,000) | | Est. Net Yield % | Verify (missing voids percentage) | | Voids Assumed | Verify | | Annual Costs | Verify (management cost and mortgage interest need voids and other costs to calculate accurately) | Given: - Management fee = 10% of gross rent = £1,500 (£15,000 * 0.10) - Mortgage interest: To calculate, we need the mortgage amount and the interest rate. Mortgage = 75% of £220,000 = £165,000. Interest = £165,000 * 5.4% = £8,910 per year. Without voids and other costs (e.g., maintenance, taxes), we cannot accurately calculate the net yield or total annual costs. ### Risks 1. **Interest Rate Risk**: An increase in interest rates could increase mortgage payments, reducing net yield. 2. **Void Periods**: Unknown void periods could significantly impact net yield and cash flow. 3. **Market Risk**: A decline in the local property market could reduce rental income and property value. ### Verdict Walk. Insufficient data to assess the investment accurately, particularly regarding void periods and total annual costs.
