You would need to factor in the cost of removing the fake stone cladding & disposing of it in an active volcano though

@TW grim isn't it! Been looking into this and people seem to do it patiently with a chisel then get bricks repointed

Fake stone cladding? Isn’t it just made from stone?
The whole street looks like that.I’m not sure I’d touch it to be honest.
Why is it an HMO? Is the whole area full of HMOs? That might mean students, noise, crime (see graffiti on the wall next door). HMO residents tend not to give a shit about their area or their neighbours. Fine if you’re renting but if you bought it and want a long term home then look for peace and quiet.

Had some ridiculously good help a few weeks back when I viewed a house in st werbs in Bristol. Thanks all. Can't believe how quickly it sold and do wonder what it went for.
Viewed this today, which went up at 25k more a few weeks back and sold before the board even went up. Buyers (family) pulled out because it needed structural work (I think cracking in the walls on one side, but I didn't see anything).

Had been a HMO, currently empty. Windows and door are horrible but easily fixed. Kitchen looked okay. Electrics, no idea but most rooms had one socket only. Waiting on the estate agent to send the survey over. Worst bit, someone extended downstairs (where the bathroom is) and got rid of the courtyard garden in so it just has that tiny channel.
