Walsall’s housing shortage – Are we in a Crisis situation?
Walsall’s housing shortage – Are we in a Crisis situation?

Walsall’s continuing housing shortage is putting the Borough (and the Country’s) repute as a nation of home owners ‘under threat’, as the number of houses being built continues to be woefully inadequate in meeting the ever demanding needs of the growing population in the Town.  In fact, I was talking to my sister the other day at a family get together; the subject of the Walsall Property market came up in the conversation (as I am sure it does at many family parties in Walsall, after the weather and politics).  My sister said it used to be that if you went out to work and did the right thing, you would expect that relatively quickly over the course of your career you would be buying a house, you would go on holiday every year and you would save for a pension.   But now things seem to have changed?

A two bedroomed semi detached house on Bevin Road, Bentley, Walsall. To get straight to the point on this one, this property requires some serious time warping from the 70s and straight into the the 21st Century. on the positive side, however the bathroom has been modernised and the rear garden has been blocked paved and both look “the business”.

A decently sized property with lounge and dining area. The kitchen is on the small side, but there is a utility room big enough for a washer and dryer. The two bedrooms are double sized. The property has  walled boundary at the front and is also gated giving complete privacy. The driveway does look big enough for a vehicle and there is also a garage. There is double glazing and partial gas central heating. The property has a lot of potential, but will require a major overhaul and some serious cash spent.

A very nicely presented semi detached on an up and coming area of Walsall due to the housing development in the area. Another property billed as a buy-to-let investment by Goodchilds of Bloxwich (01922 312 016). A nice spec on this one and can be let as is, but I would recommend changing the décor in the living room and at least one of the bedrooms. It appears that full gas central heating and double glazing is present.

A traditional mid-terraced house in a popular area for rented accommodation in Walsall. It’s yet another property billed as a buy-to-let investment by Goodchilds of Bloxwich (01922 312 016). It’s a medium spec property and doesn’t need anything doing to it from what I can see of it, there being no photos of the bedrooms  and can be let as is as far as I am concerned. Though gas central heating is stated, there is no mention of whether there is double glazing. There is a shower mixer tap, but it could really do with a fitted electric shower and screen.

A good looking semi in the Darlaston/ Wednesbury area with a massive rear garden by the looks of things. Overall it looks like it doesn’t need anything doing to it and can be let as is as far as I am concerned. Average sized rooms, coupled with double glazing and central heating. No bath in the er, bath-room, but that’s no biggie and some people prefer that anyway.

Has Mr Osborne finally delivered the sucker punch to Walsall landlords?!
Has Mr Osborne finally delivered the sucker punch to Walsall landlords?!

Ding, Ding!!  Seconds out – Round 8!  George Osborne today delivered his 8th Budget Statement as Chancellor of the Exchequer.  Many consider the number 8 the luckiest of all numbers, and in Chinese culture it is favoured by business due to its association with prosperity, wealth and success.  Although, in boxing terms, not many fighters predict a knock out in round 8.  So, has Mr Osborne finally delivered the sucker punch to Walsall landlords?!

A standard terraced house with a modernised kitchen and certainly not much to look at from the outside, but sometimes this blinds us to the rental potential. Talking of modernisation, the decoration could do with updating. However, in general a good sized property with three double bedrooms, double glazing and gas central heating. Acceptable as it stands, but as I always say, there is always room for improvement. It doesn’t have to cost a fortune as sometimes a little says more. For starters the kitchen has been modernised and it stands to reason the rest of the property should follow suite (Did you see what I did there?).
