I was talking to one of my landlords the other day about the
impending Christmas festivities and her plans for next Year, when she explained
there were no property bargains for her to buy in Eastwood or the surrounding
area. With prices having risen recently
it’s always easy to fall into the mind-set that the bargains have gone. So after
having a quick look here is what I discovered in terms of bargains in and
around Eastwood.
A 2 bed terraced house on Maws Lane, Kimberley, sold in 2007
for £105,000. In September of this year (2015), it sold again for £57,000, a
drop in value of nearly 20%!
Another 2 bed town house on North Street, Langley Mill, sold
for £76,000 in August this year, whereas back in 2007 it sold for £90,000. A
near 16% reduction. These are excellent value properties, even before taking
inflation in to account.
Finally, one of those nice 1900s three-storey town houses on
Garden Road, sold for £108,000 in the Autumn of 2007. Considering property
values are approaching those being achieved in 2007, some lucky person picked
up a bargain in the Summer, when it sold again for £96,000.
