Yield evidence:
Comparables R2 and R3 have both sold in the last year. R3 was sold 6 months ago
at a yield of 5.5% based on the rent passing. R2 was sold 18 months ago when the
rent was historic at £14,000 and it was known that the tenant might be wishing to
leave. It achieved a yield of 5.2%
Tips:
•
Start by analyzing the comparables supplied – remember what we
discussed in class about the ‘hierarchy of evidence
•
When you have assessed the rental evidence, consider the yield
•
Bear in mind the property is empty
and it may take some time to let.
Consider whether you will
defer
the income (we will cover this in class) or
adjust the yield to reflect the risk.
•
You can use Excel or simple calculations to show your valuation – the
choice is yours.
•
What is important is that you think about why the evidence may show
slightly conflicting things!
