Liverpool
During the past decade, Liverpool has transformed its fortune, merging the famous Liverpudlian determination and independence with a new wave of entrepreneurship, quite literally changing the landscape of the city. For Liverpool is now known as a thriving cosmopolitan city, recognised just as much for its prosperous success in business as it is for its creative and colourful young professionals.
With Liverpool city region’s visitor economy now worth £4.9bn, Liverpool is the fastest economically growing city in the UK, making it the leading investment destination. With traditionally low prices and a variety of new housing developments across the city, Liverpool’s property market is buoyant at the moment. There are many reasons why Liverpool offers such great value for both residents and investors. As is typical with much of the North, prices in the city are considerably more affordable than property in the south, particularly London.

Demand for Investment
The demand for high quality apartments in the city and around the docks continues to rise. Not only is quality accommodation needed to house the city’s working professionals, but also the more than 50.000 student population. Liverpool also forms part of the government’s plans for the Northern Powerhouse, which is likely to see demand soar even further.
These plans link the five ‘core cities’ of Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Newcastle and Sheffield to boost economic growth throughout the North of England. This plan will continue to boost investment and attract more interest into the areas.
