A 3 bedroom terraced house on Lumley Road, Walsall, WS1. The property is being marketed by Acorns & Co (01922 312 060). This is a pretty standard spec, but will probably need some decor changes. Marketed at £130k, which I think is slightly overpriced.

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.

A three bedroom semi detached house on a popular Bentley estate in Walsall. The property has a very nice spec and could be let as is.

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.

A traditional two bedroom terraced house in the Palfrey area, Walsall, and a popular one for rentals. It checks all the boxes in terms of the size, style and price, but as a ready to go rental it isn’t. Well, If you are willing and I think you should be, to spend a little to gain a little more. Then changing the flooring and the decor is a must. The kitchen may need looking at as well, but it’s hard to tell from just the one photo. The property has two reception rooms and both bedrooms are double and there is a cloakroom WC as well.

The location is ideal for local schools both public and private (Mayfield Prepatory and Queen Mary’s Grammar schools are approx 2 miles away). Healthcare amenities such as doctors, dentists and chemists are within easy each. Transport services are very good with bus routes and major road networks nearby with Walsall town centre just a mile away. There is double glazing, gas central heating and parking is on-road.
