Just a brief hello today as I’m just about to go and meet with a landlord. However, here is my latest buy to let investment deal.
I haven’t seen one of these in a while, but extremely intriguing none the less. Here’s what’s on offer…

This property is another excellent example of a property, which is very much ready to go letting-wise. Finished to a high standard with all the right boxes ticked. There are a couple of downsides though.
The life of a property manager is never dull!! I love what I do and every day is different as you never know what you can wake up to (although I do try to plan my day). What makes it extra special are the interactions I have with potential clients on a daily basis with new people looking to enter the buy to let market.
One such case was of a lovely gentleman I had an initial email enquiry from. His children had grown up and flown the nest. Some extra cash was to hand; he saw my blog and became interested in entering the market. We later met up for a coffee. He was considering making his first purchase and amongst the usual questions, one question stood out for me:
Do I buy a freehold house or a leasehold flat in Walsall?

It’s a question I get asked a lot by landlords and that question is, “What improvements do I need to make to my property in order to let it”…Or words to that effect.
There are many facets to consider of course, but the best way for me to answer that very question is to show you. The property highlighted in this article is an excellent example of what a lettable standard is.

I have to be honest with you, I almost overlooked this one, a “plain Jane” of a property I thought with nothing that stands out. However, I am very much a firm believer in looking beyond the immediate and “seeing” the potential a property can offer. This is very much a case in point. With a lot of TLC this can definitely be turned from a “Cinderella” into the “belle of the ball”.

Firstly I would like to wish all my readers a happy, happy new year. Whilst, George Osbourne makes his unwitting attempts to try and spoil our future with several attempts at the buy to let market, I firmly believe that if you are in it for the long-term you will succeed in property. I’m glad a judicial review is under way for the buy to let tax grab – read the article here http://www.property118.com/happy-new-year-george-osborne/83294/ and I urge all my readers of the blog to take action and support the case against clause 24 as it affects us all. You can get involved here https://www.crowdjustice.co.uk/case/clause24/.
Having said that, let’s talk about my thoughts on the above property…..
A one bedroom detached house, Harebell Close, Tamebridge, Walsall, WS5. The asking price is in the region of £70000 with Wortonkelly of West Bromwich (0121 366 0352). Check it out here:

Something of a curiosity this one, however there is also something very intriguing about it. How so? Well, for one thing how many one bed houses are you aware of in Walsall? I put that very question to one of our landlords. They couldn’t think of one. There aren’t many, I advised them and certainly not detached? The fact that this is the case makes this property kind of unique and therefore desirable. It appeals to those who are looking for something different, something dare I say…Quirky? That’s right, this house is Quirking at me and I like it! For those of you that don’t know what Quirking is, it’s Twerking for property!
Nestled in the highly popular and very desirable Tamebridge estate, speaks volumes as to the location and therefore the potential for long term letting.
The faux Elizabethan styling on the gable end sets the scene very nicely and the off-road parking is certainly a boon for any motorist. Let’s open the front door…
A two bedroom flat, Woodcroft Court, Hawbush Road, Walsall, WS3. The asking price is in the region of £70000 with Acorns & Co Estate Agents (01922 312 060). Check it out here:

A new build two bed first floor apartment located on a new estate in a desirable area of Walsall. It has been reduced in price within the last month by £10000, so a closer look would definitely be on the cards.
Only one and a half miles from Walsall and Bloxwich town centres and major road networks. Commuting would not be an issue.
So, in my best Lloyd Grossman voice…”Who would live in place like this?”
A two bedroom end terraced house, Cavendish Road, Walsall, WS2. The asking price is in the region of £80950 with Connells (01922 716 026). Check it out here:

It is said that the three most desirable attributes of a property are location, location, location…Enough with the soundbites, but in this particular case, the location is absolutely spot-on. Close enough to Walsall town centre and located on the border of the burgeoning Reedswood estate. Quick and easy access to the M6, Reedswood Retail park on Reedswood Way, over a dozen schools plus numerous healthcare and sports facilities.
Lets’s get inside and get up close and personal.
A three bedroom semi detached house, Coppice Road, Walsall Wood, Walsall, WS9. The asking price is in the region of £145000 with Goodchilds (01543 526 869). Check it out here:

An immaculate and recently refurbished semi with lots of potential. This property delivers a decent rental yield of 6.58%, however those of you interested in capital growth might like to know that if the property goes for the asking price, it would mean that the property has increased in value by 26% within the last four years!
Lets’s get inside and take a closer mooch.
