An innovative Liverpool project has seen dilapidated, run-down properties in the city completely transformed into incredible dream homes.
The Homes for a Pound scheme was launched by Liverpool Council back in 2015. The project allows people to buy up a run down property for just £1. They must then use their own money and resources to bring it back to life as part of an agreement with the city council.
The scheme started with a trial in the Granby area of Liverpool 8 where 10 properties were restored. In 2016 it was extended to cover the Webster Triangle neighbourhood off Smithdown Road. 2,500 applications were received for just 106 houses in the area.
