What happens when you buy a seriously run-down property in Birmingham for £126,000 and believe you can turn it into a profitable property flip?
In this episode, Rahim Bah takes you inside a real UK property investment and house-flipping project, showing the property, discussing the renovation plans and breaking down the numbers behind the deal.
The property is in a poor state of repair, but the vision is to transform it into a modern three-bedroom home, add value through refurbishment and eventually sell it on the open market.
But the big question is:
Can this £126K property really generate around £45K profit?
Rahim and his investor walk through the property and discuss everything from the kitchen and dining layout to bedrooms, storage, windows, plumbing, electrics, heating, landscaping, the roof and potential en-suite improvements.
The discussion then moves into the actual property deal numbers, including the approximately £126,000 purchase price, estimated renovation costs of £35,000–£45,000 and a potential end value of around £230,000–£250,000.
The episode also explores how the potential profit changes once renovation, finance, selling and other costs are taken into consideration.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- How property flipping works in the UK
- How investors assess a dilapidated property
- How to identify opportunities to add value
- How to approach a Birmingham property investment
- How to plan a property refurbishment
- How to estimate renovation costs
- How bridging finance fits into the deal
- How to calculate potential end value
- How to calculate potential property flip profit
- Why renovation budgets matter
- Why speed and timing matter when flipping
- How investors think about the property's eventual buyer
- What to look for before taking on a renovation project
The team estimates that the refurbishment could potentially be completed within roughly two to three months, depending on how quickly the builders work.
Purchase Price: Approximately £126,000
Estimated Renovation: £35,000–£45,000
Potential End Value: £230,000–£250,000
Potential Profit Scenario: Approximately £45,000
These figures are estimates discussed during the property project, not guaranteed returns. Actual investment results can vary depending on renovation costs, financing, market conditions, selling price, taxes, fees and other expenses.
