🔄 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.

⚠ Marginal Rent covers 1.4x monthly interest — below the standard 1.5x threshold. Some lenders may decline.
Purchase price £170,000 Loan (75% LTV) £127,500
Rate (IO) 5.5% p.a. Monthly interest £584
Rent needed (1.5×) £877/mo Estimated rent £824/mo
Stress ratio 1.41× (need ≥ 1.5×) £53 shortfall
Max viable purchase price for this rent: £160,000 — at this price the estimated rent of £824/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.
