*****

There are other ways of funding the deals to 85% LTV of valuation figure, leaving you with 5% towards your professional fees.

*****
  
Total BMV to you after Finder's Fee: 20%. 

You will need to pay survey fees and a deal reservation fee upfront (below), and following successful survey you will need to pay search fees. 

You will get £3,750 cashback (£75,000 x 0.85, minus your PP £60,000) which will help towards fees. 



             
Upfront Costs
                          
  1. Deal Fee (to secure the deal)               £ 500 (subtracted from FF)
  2. Survey                                                          £ 350
  3. Search Fees (solicitor)                           £ 300
1 and 2 payable directly to me via PayPal or bank transfer within 24 hours of your acceptance to take on the deal. 3 is payable to the solicitor, unless otherwise stated above.

Finder's Fee
  1. 'Your Purchase Price' - see above - is calculated by adding the actual Agreed Price (AP - agreed with the vendor) to the Finder's Fee (FF) payable. 
  2. Both the AP and FF are private and will be revealed only to the investor chosen to proceed with this deal. 
  3. The FF is payable upon completion and comes from your remortgage finance. 

Upon Completion

  1. Broker (variable)
  2. Bridging Finance (if applicable, varies, normally a flat £500)
  3. Finders Fee (any remaining, see above, varies) - minus the Deal Fee which has already been paid to secure the deal
  4. Purchase Solicitor (typically £450+, plus VAT and disbursements)
  5. Vendor's Solicitor (normally a flat £500)
On a typical £100,000 property, all the fees, should come to around £2,000 - £2,500 (excluding the Finder's Fee).

NB - if you use one of our recommended 'no money down'  purchase methods (allowing you to base your mortgage on the market value and not on the purchase price) - then you should typically factor in aroun £1,500 - £2,000 extra to faciliatet this (although you would not then require bridging fees or extra legal fees on a remortgage after completion).

Notes

All mortgages are subject to survey and the purchasers own financial standing.  Figures given are for illustrative purposes only.

FINALLY - please remember we can provide you with a 'deal stacker' template (MS Excel - if you do not have Microsoft Office please contact me for an alternative).  This spreadsheet will give you a much more comprehensive financial analysis, which also allows you to play with the variables involved, and allows you to compare and contrast different mortgage products.



The Details

AREA / PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
This property is a Victorian 3 bed mid terrace in Kensington.  It is a popular area, very close to the city centre and Anfield and Tuebrook.  Kensington is a regeneration area and there is a lot of change going on in this area.  Rental property is in high demand.  There would be a further opportunity to multi-let this house as the area has the highest concentration of Eastern Europeans (among other immigrant groups) in Liverpool.

Photos HERE.

The property is in need of modernisation.  It has partial double glazing to the front of the house only.  It needs a new kitchen, modern bathroom, central heating, and redecorated throughout.
 
There are directly comparable properties in this and nearby streets on the market from £98,000 to £85,000, yet these properties are not fully modernised (just in a better state than this).  After a full refurb and modernisation I would expect this property to be worth around very conservatively £90,000 (accounting for surveyors downvaluing at present), and it would let very easily.
 
Various finance plan include:
  1. Purchase on a 90% let-to-buy, to get money towards the works
  2. Buy on a two-step refurbishment mortgage - 85% of purchase cost, then 80% (maybe 85%) of final market value would be released once works completed.  Figures would be approved and known in advance following first survey.
  3. Buy on a closed bridge/cash, then refinance to 85% of final value
 
We can faciliate the work with our trusted tradesmen.  We could arrange for full quotes and agree price in advance. 

 
WHY BELOW MARKET VALUE?

The relatives simply want to cash in now rather than the hassle of hanging on to the house or trying to manage a refurb themselves.  None of them live in Liverpool, the nearest lives in Stockport.

Please note your interest ASAP.
