An immaculately presented two bedroom Semi Detached house, Balmoral Way, Walsall, WS2. The asking price is for offers over £125k and currently marketed by Purple Bricks (01926 267659). At a rental of at least £595.00 the yield will be 5.71%. Let’s check out why this is such a good investment.

A 2 bedroom semi detached house in the Leamore area of Walsall, currently marketed by Goodchilds (01922 312016). The property could be rented as it is, but it does have a very unique style about it, so I would recommend making changes to the decor, but it is not absolutely essential.

Every now and again a surprise package of a property turns up and I thought I would share my latest find with you.

Priced at £120k for a three bed semi is about average for the type and area. It is immaculately presented with a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom. The surprise feature is the large curtilage at the front of the property, which can easily accommodate several vehicles, but obviously as a landlord you wouldn’t want to turn this part of the property into a small caravan park. However, the reality of the situation is that professional couples/ families generally have more than one car. So, this would be ideal in meeting that requirement.

The full property details are here. I appraise the property at £625.00 pcm producing a yield 6.25%.

A very nice spec indeed on this semi in the Bentley area of Walsall. A good sized property with two double bedrooms and a single. It also has double glazing and gas central heating. Another great buy to let deal that requires little or no change to the decor. Normally I would say that a property like this would rent for just under £600.00 pcm, but the large curtilage parking at the front of the property allows for a little extra squeeze to £625.00.
