What does it cost in the East Midlands?
Our guide range for refurbishing an acquired or temporary accommodation home in the East Midlands is £8,150–£25,500 per home. That is the UK range of £8,000–£25,000 (our estimate) adjusted by a regional cost factor of 1.02 (VOA Rating Cost Guide 2026: 1.01–1.07); figures are before VAT where the source states it. Every job is priced after survey; specification, access and the condition of the homes will move the figure.
