There is still the opportunity to bag a property bargain in Newport and get yourself a whole house or a flat for an absolute bargain.
But you get what you pay for, so expect to do a complete conversion, a programme of renovation work or compromise on space and location.
Some of these properties are looking for a new owner to help realise their full value and potential.
Others are beautifully presented affordable flats perfect for first time buyers, or those looking to downsize.
