🔄 BRR Refinance Stress Test

Tests lender affordability (rent vs. mortgage interest) — a different calculation from the BRRR Strategy card above, which tests capital recycled via refinance.

🚨 Fails stress test Rent covers only 1.0x monthly interest. Most lenders require 1.5x. Refinance likely to be declined.
Purchase price £995,000 Loan (75% LTV) £746,250
Rate (IO) 5.5% p.a. Monthly interest £3,420
Rent needed (1.5×) £5,130/mo Estimated rent £3,317/mo
Stress ratio 0.97× (need ≥ 1.5×) £1813 shortfall
Max viable purchase price for this rent: £643,000 — at this price the estimated rent of £3,317/mo would just pass the 1.5× stress test.

Assumptions: 75% LTV · 5.5% interest only · 1.5× rent coverage (standard lender requirement). Actual lender criteria vary — verify with your broker.

Exit Strategy

Capital appreciation projections at 2.5% pa (a flat UK-wide assumption — not adjusted for this property's specific location). Assumes 75% LTV interest-only mortgage redeemed on sale. Excludes rental income.

How is this calculated?

This is a simplified projection based on comparable sales data and an estimated refurb cost. It does not currently account for seller motivation signals, nearby planning applications, or the area's wider demographic profile — see the relevant sections elsewhere in this report for those. Not financial advice.
