There are a number of houses currently up for sale in Birmingham for under £50,000.
Many of these homes could be ideal for first-time buyers or investors looking for properties in the West Midlands. And with the cost of living crisis taking hold across the country, many people will be looking for affordable housing in major cities.
And some of these Birmingham properties are set to appear at Bond Wolfe’s next auction which is due to take place tomorrow (Thursday, 27 October).
The auction will be livestreamed via the company’s website with remote bidding by proxy, telephone or internet.
With that in mind, we’ve taken a look at some of the homes currently on the market for less than £50k which will go under the hammer. The stand out property is a lovely two-bedroomed, mid-terraced house with gardens in Kings Norton.
