In this week’s article I talk about the 20 biggest streets in CH43 in terms of the number of households on that street or road then compare their total values and how many people have moved homes in the last three years on those streets, with some most interesting and intriguing outcomes.
Well my recent about Prenton’s most moved street in the last 3 years caused quite a lot of interest locally, so I decided to see what else I could find out about the CH43 postcode area, and I have been able find out the biggest streets in the Prenton (CH43) postcode area.
Don’t worry, I will get back to some hard-hitting articles about the lack of new homes being built in Prenton, the trials and tribulations of being a Prenton buy-to-let landlord and the future of the Prenton property market .. yet in this article because of the previous positive comments, I wanted to give you what you, the Prenton homeowners and Prenton landlords asked about and wanted!
The biggest street in CH43, when it comes to the number of houses on it is Bidston Road, with 429 homes. In second place is Shrewsbury Road with 309 homes and in third is Prenton Hall Road with 271 homes.
Yet, size isn’t everything and the most valuable street of the top 20 biggest streets is Shrewsbury Road at £59.7m with an average value of £193,000 per property. The 2 streets with the greatest number of movers in the last 3 years are Bidston Road, with a saleability rate of only 8.4.4%, and Beresford Road with the highest saleability rate of 18.9%.
The full breakdown can be found in this chart below.
Yet, did you really think I wouldn’t get at all serious ..
The basic rudiments of the Wirral property market remain principally healthy in many parts of Wirral, yet the existing political environment means that the vital element of confidence has been diminished slightly in certain parts, and that is triggering a minority of potential property purchasers and house-sellers to vacillate, yet with unemployment at an all-time low, a record number of people with a job, ultra-low interest rates and decent mortgage availability (with the Banks and Building Societies tending to drop mortgage rates instead of increasing them), those Wirral first time buyers (and especially Wirral buy-to-let landlords) who have adjourned their next house purchase because of perceived political uncertainty should be reminded that talking to many of my fellow Wirral agents they have more homes on their books than at any time for the last three or four years, so there is a greater choice of Wirral properties to call your next home/BTL investment with a potential of securing a great property deal in the next month or so.
Irrespective of what happens with Brexit, Wirral people will still need a roof over their heads and as I have mentioned on a number of occasions, I have proved beyond doubt we aren’t building enough homes both locally in Wirral and nationally. If supply is limited and demand increases (as the population grows and we get older), prices in the medium to long term can only go in one direction. Upwards!
So, whatever happens with BoJo and Brexit – why wait, because once we get over that hurdle, there will just be another hurdle and another hurdle and by which time – we will be in 2029 and you would have missed the boat. We survived the Global Financial Crash, 3-day week in 1970s’, hyperinflation etc etc … yet the choice is yours.
