Property Oracle says ..

This six-bedroom semi-detached house on The Highway, Brighton, is presented as an investment opportunity due to its proximity to Brighton University and its current use as an HMO. The location is convenient, with Moulsecoomb train station within walking distance. The property boasts six bedrooms and two bathrooms. However, the provided photographs reveal a property that, while functional, requires some degree of refurbishment to update its presentation. The bathroom, in particular, shows signs of age and could use modernisation. The kitchen appears adequate, although the style is dated. The garden is small but adds to the property’s appeal. The property’s value would greatly increase with modernisation work. The £500,000 list price reflects the strong rental market in the area for student accommodation and represents a balance between the need for renovations and high demand for such properties. Overall, the property is a sound investment opportunity that is likely attractive to investors, but the high purchase price and needed renovations may require a cautious approach. It’s important to note that the lack of precise square footage for the property and nearby comparables limits the accuracy of a definitive price analysis.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
