CASE STUDIES

10 Kendrick Road, Nottingham

When we first visited 10 Kendrick Road, it looked like a tired property with potential hidden beneath the surface. Instead of relying on gut instinct, we ran the numbers. Using advanced data analytics, we modelled multiple financial scenarios, tested bridging loan structures, and validated rental demand in the area. The outcome? The numbers told us this was a project worth pursuing.

Key Data Points:

Purchase Price: £175,000 (Below Market Value)

Refurbishment: £240,000 (back-to-brick conversion)

Gross Development Value (GDV): ~£502,000

Net Rental Income: £1,200–£1,800/month

Timeline: ~9 months (purchase → refurb → refinance)

Exit Strategy: Commercial refinance @ 75% LTV
