Manchester BTR Market Outlook
Investment Strategies in a Booming Market
|
1. As the availability of land in Manchester’s city centre dwindles, sensitivity about the land that remains increases. How do we preserve historic buildings and community landmarks while reshaping the city in a positive way?
2. Is Manchester in danger of seeing the dark, unoccupied but investor-owned blocks that blight London and help fuel the affordable housing problem?
3. The U.K.’s first purpose-built co-living scheme is coming to Manchester. Will this aid in providing more affordable housing and attract a younger generation of renters to the city? How can we ensure these potential renters are here to stay?
4. The arrival of HS2 at Manchester Piccadilly is a once-in-a-century chance to rethink the north’s major transport hub and create a new focus for the city residential sector, according to the city council. Could Piccadilly be a second Spinningfields?
5. Overseas investors are leading the push into the BTR sector. Is Manchester too dependent on foreign investors?
