A two bed semi detached house on Northumberland Way, Walsall, WS2. Listed yesterday, another top notch investment opportunity if you are a Walsall landlord, viewing higly recommended.
The property is situated on a very popular estate for rentals. I don’t know what is happening with some agents recently and the lack of photos, but this one has suffered the same fate. At least we have photos of the kitchen, living room and rear garden as well as the external front elevation. It ticks all the right boxes, but I do urge a viewing ASAP!
It’s on the markert with Lovett & Co. (01543 526007). Arrange a viewing today!
The property is situated on a very popular estate for rentals. Unfortunately the listing on Zoopla lacks all the necessary photos. There are four and all of the external of the property, nothing internal and the proeprty has been on the market since 02/07/2020, go figure. On the face of it, the property hits all the marks for a rental, but without knowing what the property has to offer visually, it’s a moot point. Therefore, you need to arrange a viewing ASAP!
It’s on the markert with Homepoint (01922 312002). Arrange a viewing today!
A two bed semi detached house on Kenilworth Crescent, WS2. If you are a Walsall landlord you may or may not know that right now properties like this are selling like hot cakes in the BTL market. So, if you are in a position that you have 130k cash to invest in a property like this, I would seriously recommend that you take a look at this bad boy asap. How do i know this? I am currently sourcing properties for my local clients at this moment in time and I have my eye on thhis one. If you don’t snap it up, someone will, very quickly. This is a perfect property for a long-term BTL. Listed 3 days ago this two bedroom semi detached house is being marketed at £130k by Bairstow eves (01922 312791). Unfortunately, there are photos missing of the kitchen and bathroom, but as I always say, that is what viewings are for. The decor looks pretty much half decent and the garden looks like it needs some minor outlay and tlc to bring it up to spec, but other than that it is pretty much good to go.
My Blog reading friends may be aware of the ‘eviction ban’ introduced at the start of the pandemic. The good news is this is being lifted on the 23rd August 2020.
Our government recently announced changes to the eviction processes in England and Wales. These temporary measures aim to help the courts cope with the influx of possession proceedings once the ‘eviction ban’ is lifted.
The changes include claimants needing to issue a “reactivation notice” to resume halted evictions and will be effective until March 28th, 2021.
Electrical testing law change for Walsall Landlords
As if Walsall landlords and landlords across the country don’t have enough to contend with, new rules on Electrical Inspection Condition Reports (EICR) has kicked in from this month.
In my day job at Ashmore Lettings & Sales, historically we have always advised landlords to conduct this check to obtain a condition report. Therefore, most of our clients are already ahead of the game. I have to admit, explaining this to some landlords has been an uphill battle especially, when my colleagues in the industry dissuaded many Walsall landlords to not obtain an EICR.
It may be a case of de-ja-vu but I’m pretty certain I went to see this property last year when it was on the market with another agent. At the time I was sourcing a BTL property for one of my property sourcing clients and knew, with a bit of TLC, this property would make a great rental. It was snapped up very quickly back then but it seems, for some reason, the sale probably fell through which, can sometimes happen if the buyer is not able to secure a mortgage or arrange the funds etc. For Walsall landlords this is a perfect property for a long-term BTL. Listed 3 days ago this two bedroom semi detached house is being marketed at offers over £130k by our colleagues iLove Homes (01922 345905). Another perfect spec ready for a quick let. From the pictures and if my memory serves me correct, I would say the property has had an upgrade of the kitchen units and bathroom suite. The decor looks in good order but I would definitely change the carpet in the lounge and one of the bedroom upstairs to something more hard wearing and neutral.
“So where is the Walsall property market heading?”. “How will a recession affect the market?”. Just a couple of common questions I’ve been fielding recently. As usual, for the benefit of my Blog reading friends, here are my thoughts…
There are plenty of investors who think nothing of legally committing to buying a property ‘off plan’ before it’s built – yet over the last few weeks, it has become the norm in the resale (second-hand) Walsall property market and they have now stolen a march and bagged some property bargains.
Normally, the physical viewing is the first step of the resale house buying process … yet now it’s becoming the ‘new normal’ that some Walsall agents are carrying out semi-professional video viewings or video tours. Even homeowners are getting in on the act and managing a Facetime or Zoom video viewing by walking around their house with their mobile phone.
On the 13th May 2020 the Government announced that the Estate & Letting Agency industry could reopen meaning people could view houses, visit agents and move home be they tenants, buyers, landlords or home sellers. This is all subject to general and specific social distancing rules, specific hygiene regulations and suitable PPE being used.
So what has been happening in the last few weeks in the Walsall property market?
When it comes to buy-to-let (BTL) deals in Walsall, there hasn’t been much to sing and dance about in recent times. But if you look underneath the covers…there are always hidden gems to be found. Some of my Blog reading friends may know that I have been quietly plugging away in the background looking at deals and helping clients connect the dots to help make those all important life changing decisions. Like people come in all shapes and sizes so does their area of knowledge/ expertise. In recent times I have had my Walsall Property Sourcing Clients ask me a similar question which, I thought I would answer here by providing an insight into some of the reasons why I view Walsall BTL investments the way I do…
…so without further ado…!! Above pictures are of two seemingly investable properties for a Walsall Landlord to consider. However, when you delve a little deeper and past the numbers, what do you actually see…?
