THE QUESTION
Priced ~70% above our €147k estimate; 3 red flags, 2 warnings before you bid.
Here's my honest read before you bid. The asking of €250,000 is about 70% above where the comparable sales actually land. I'd treat the estimate as a guide — it leans on 10 sales of mixed fit. There are 3 red flags here I wouldn't ignore — the full report names them and what to do. Don't let any “moving fast” pressure rush you — the numbers give you room to bid sensibly and walk away if it runs past what it's worth.
01One fails a health screen — and names the test to order — graded a red flag.
02One is a structural risk pattern for this era and area — graded a red flag.
03A running-cost burden the asking price ignores — graded a red flag.
