3 Bed House, Moor Street, Walsall, WS10. With Yields Of 7.00%.

01

A three bedroom semi detached house in the Wednesbury area Walsall, WS10. The posting clearly states that the property is in need of modernisation. To what extent, one can only guess since there are no internal photos?

The description states that there is some form of UPVC glazing and to some extent gas central heating too. The asking price is for offers of £89950, but that of course will very much depend on what internal upgrade are required.

*UPDATE* 2 Bed Semi, Hydes Road, West Bromwich, B71. Now With Yields Of 5.12%.

I originally posted this one on 22/04/2016 and even though it has only reduced by £1000 since then, it’s worth mentioning because of it’s top-notch spec.

You can read the original article here.

Technically, this is a two bed, but the loft is currently being used as a third bedroom and is large enough for a single bed or used as as extra storage space. It is ideal for the working professionals or a small family and located about two miles from M6 junction 9 and within easy reach of West Bromwich, Wednesbury and Walsall town centres. Less than half a mile away there are a good selection of education centres such as Wodensborough Community Technology College and Moorlands Primary School.

*Update* 3 Bed House, Wolverhampton Street, Walsall, WS10. Now With Yields Of 7.50%.

Since I’m on the updating bandwagon, I thought I would have a look at some old buy-to let deals just to see how they’re doing these days. I am happy to report that the majority that I have revisited, are no longer on the market. This one I wrote about on 18/02/2016.

Great news, it’s still on the market and even better news it is available and at a discounted price. Reduced by a cool 9K, not to be sniffed at. If you haven’t already, why not go and have a look?!

The new asking price is in the region of £80000 with Lovett & Co Estate Agents of Lichfield (01543 526 007).

*UPDATE* 2 Bed House, Lewis Street, Walsall, WS2. Now With Yields Of 7.00%!

01 02 03

I wrote about this property back in May and luckily it is still on the market almost 5 months later. The good news is that the price has been reduced by 10% to £90000!

A two bedroom terraced house in the Birchills area of Walsall, WS2. An excellent spec here and unless you really want to change the decor, it can be let as is. The asking price is at the higher end due to the higher end spec. The location is ideal for local schools infant, junior and academies including Walsall College all within a mile. Healthcare amenities such as doctors, dentists and chemists are also within easy each. Transport services are very good with bus routes and major road networks nearby with Walsall town centre less than a mile away. There is double glazing, gas central heating and parking is on-road. I would urge a viewing sooner, rather than later.

Well, it’s been a dry 7 days looking for a deal and today is no exception. A two bed semi in the Wednesbury area of Walsall that you will need to get your cheque book out for.

I’m not going to pull any punches and it’s very clear that it will need new decor, flooring, kitchen and bathroom, at the very least.

2 Bed House, Coltham Road, Walsall, WV12. With Yields Of 6.33%.

01 02 03 04

Posted on the 8th September and listed as another investment opportunity. It appears that the local estate agents feel that adding that little phrase to their listings adds some kind of cache to their post. It’s a bit hit and miss based on their “criteria” as an investment, but anyway, it gives the rest of us who are actually interested in searching for properties like these, the chance to see if it does indeed pass muster.

It’s not a bad little spec in a good rental area and will need some changes to the basic decor and some serious consideration as to whether the brick fireplaces stay or not. It does have double glazing and gas central heating.

2 Bed House, Derby Street, Walsall, WS2. With Yields Of 7.61%.

01

A two bedroom terraced house in the Coalpool area of Walsall, WS2. Listed 4 days ago with only one photo. Apparently, more are to follow…

Listed as a ‘fantastic investment opportunity’. Well, is it? If my Spidey senses have taught me anything, based on the price and the lack of photos , kind of tells me this property will need some TLC.

On the positive side, the area is good for rentals and the average pcm price for a two bed terraced house is in the region of £495.00 and many amenities, including schools, are within easy reach.

A two bedroom terraced house in the Birchills area of Walsall, WS2. Another property in need of upgrading. Like my previous posting, this property will need some investment in order to turn it into a lettable spec and by extension receive an appropriate rental income.

A standard two bed terraced house with two double bedrooms and a downstairs bathroom. There is already double glazing and gas central heating in situ.

The asking price is for offers over £69950. An absolute bargain price and well below average for the type and area.
