Just advertised by a town centre agent - this is a modern three bed that look as if it needs no more than cosmetic work to get it ready for rental. The basics seem to have been done with gas central heating and upvc double glazing and once tarted a bit (we will assist), this will rent for at least £625 in the current market.
If you're aiming for a freehold property, below stamp duty (and I'm guessing this property is aimed at £125k), and are put off Victorian Terraces by the potential for hidden problems, the world is by no means your oyster! As such something like this should feature prominently in your thought process. It will attract the first time buyers too though, so be quick.
