Why Invest in Leeds?
Leeds is a prime location for investment and expansion, operating as one of the largest and most centrally located cities in the UK. The combination of a growing student population, a future-oriented industry focus and under-supplied housing market present an excellent opportunity for real estate investment.
No economy is immune to the current global pandemic and although Leeds’ Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is anticipated to fall 10.12% in 2020, it is estimated to bounce back strongly by 11.18% in 2021. For the next 4 years, an average of above 5% GDP growth is anticipated for Leeds followed by an increase of 18.23% between 2025 and 2030.

Why Invest in Newcastle?
As one of the UK’s Core Cities, Newcastle has been a hotspot for foreign investment ever since major regeneration projects began dramatically changing the skyline to what it is today.
A location previously known for its coal mining and shipbuilding, Newcastle is now focused on knowledge-intensive sectors, such as financial and professional services -with an emerging scene in the creative and digital sector.
Newcastle is also one of the UK’s prolific student cities, with two of the country’s world class universities. Its student population continues to expand while the supply of purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) dwindles, forcing many into the rental market.
There is strong evidence of investment and market confidence despite the global pandemic and Brexit, particularly in the real estate market currently housing a population of over 1.7 million people within a 30-minute radius.

Why Invest in Manchester?
The birthplace of the modern industrial world, in recent years the city has diversified beyond its historic moniker of ‘Warehouse City’ to become the beating heart of the Northern Powerhouse.
With high quality properties, global transport connectivity, and a buoyant pool of young talent, Manchester is one of the UK’s fastest growing regional cities. It has a £62.8 billion economy with a £5 billion digital ecosystem that crowned it the UK’s Top Digital Tech City with a reputation for innovation.
It’s growth is set to continue on an upward trajectory as the HS2 launches, making London reachable in just over an hour. With average property prices more affordable than the capital and the population continuing to grow, Manchester will see rising pressure on house prices and lower void periods in the years to come.
Why Invest in Liverpool?
Liverpool produces solid yields which is largely due to the affordability of the real estate market.
According to Zoopla data, the average price of a property in the city is only £174,082 and when compared to the UK average currently around £319,967, offers new investors a much lower entry point.
The reasonable property prices coupled with healthy rental growth are determining factors in why buy-to-let investors love Liverpool.
