    New builds seem to get silly money.

    there's a new 4 bed semi down the road from me £425,000 , if you don't mind the Knotweed it was built on.

    No neighbours nearby

    4 bedroom bungalow for sale in Love Lane, Hollywood, Birmingham, B47

    That new build was utter rip off naff crap.

    I bow to your local knowledge, I have little knowledge of the area, I know Walsall is a hole!

    but that's normal, the best bits in Berks can be right next to complete holes.

    It's a nice area that as well. I used to work in Wythall just down the road.

    .
    No catch.
    If my budget was about £500K in Brum, that's the sort of thing I would be looking at, with a view to changing/extended it to my taste as and when I wanted.
    The large flat garden and secluded location allows for that.
    Allow say £250K for building and expansion costs and you could transform it into a > 1 million house quite easily.

    For £500k outside town, and not in the south, you'd damn well hope for something very nice though. That's serious money if you're not in a property hotspot.
