Hi There, My name is Harry and I'm 23 and researching where to buy my first property. I've had some ideas of places that caught my eye (derby, Gosforth, Stafford as it's near me), however I visited Wakefield recently and it seemed like a very nice place. I've listed to the podcast for almost a year now and caught up on a lot fo the early stuff and listen every week. I know Leeds is a very popular place to invest at the moment and so I feel Wakefield would be a good place to invest and after doing some preliminary research it seems I'm on the right track. However, with not being very experienced as an investor and also not having been to Wakefield many times (so not knowing the area too well apart from the online research I've initially done) I was wondering if anyone could give me a breakdown of the good and bad areas of Wakefield so I know where to target my search. Any background/extra info on Wakefield and perusal experiences would be much appreciated and I'd be more than up for a chat to get the low down. I'd also like recommendations on good quality resources for when/if I decide Wakefield is for me, such as: - Letting Agents - Property Sourcing companies - Maintenance (plumbing, electricals, landscaping, interior design, building work) - Mortgage Advisor (local) And other things of this ilk. Any information and advice given is much appreciated and I look forward to hearing what people have to say about this area! Thanks, Harry
