Hello Everyone,
A work opportunity is moving me to Birmingham, and I plan to buy a property. I have a budget of 200k, I want a house not a flat, and I dont want to live in a busy area (as I have cats). Only looking at new builds. Seem some lovely houses within range of my requirement, but then I've found the areas to be very undesirable. Looking at 3-4 bed properties only.
I work from home, so dont need to commute, though do need to be near a train station incase I need to get into London or other areas for work (infrequently)
I've looked at Blackwell, Sutton Coldfield, Redditch, Studley, Tamworth, AlveChurch, Curdworth, Knowle, Mosely and I cannot afford to live here on my budget.
Kings Norton came up, but I read its unsafe and full of chavs. Chelmsley Wood and Hawkesley the same. I dont want to buy in a place that feels unsafe to walk around.
Am I being too picky? Will I ever find a place under the above terms?
Be very appreciative to receive opinions.
Many Thanks
