A LEADING Midlands letting agency has identified Walsall as the next hot-spot for buy-to-let investors and is opening a regional office to support the anticipated growth in the rental market.
Lawsons, established in Wolverhampton for 17 years, already has a small portfolio of rental properties in and around Walsall but feels now is the time to increase their presence.
Managing Director of the firm, Sally Lawson, said: “There has been a huge amount of regeneration across the Walsall area which is attracting larger businesses and, in turn, more people to the town.
“We are expecting a considerable rise in the number of tenants looking for rental properties in Walsall and this growing population will drive investors to the area.
“Our research has shown a real service gap in the borough with a shortfall of expert advisers and a lack of customer service led agencies, so it seemed the obvious place to expand.
“We know we can deliver on both counts and the reputation of our Wolverhampton base is evidence of that.”
Lawsons’ Lettings Manager Darren Williamson, with 15 years experience in the local property market, will head the new branch at 26-28 Goodhall Street from November 1.
Darren said: “This is a really exciting challenge and I’m looking forward to making the Lawsons brand as well known in Walsall, and as synonymous with quality, as our current business is in Wolverhampton.
“I want to offer a professional service of equal calibre to investors, landlords and tenants alike across districts like Walsall town, Bloxwich, Aldridge, Leamore, Wednesbury, Cannock and Lichfield.”
