Sheffield is an investment HOTSPOT, Why?

Sheffield’s fast growing economy

Sheffield is an investment HOTSPOT, Why?  Well, Sheffield’s fast growing economy is now worth £7bn a year!!  Pretty incredible for a northern city, isn’t it?

Evidence

I can easily show you why Sheffield is an investment HOTSPOT.  Its GVA (Gross Value Added) performance has increased by almost £4 billion since 1997.

Not only this, the economy is continuing to grow by an average of 5% every year.

Other northern cities

Along with some other northern cities, such as Liverpool and Leeds.  Sheffield has become one of the most exciting investment hotspots in the UK’s property sector.
Whether you’re looking to invest in residential buy-to-let, commercial property or student housing, there are lots of opportunities in sheffield.

Transport Links

There is far more to the property investment opportunities than students and graduates, however.

The borough of Sheffield is the third largest in England, and as it’s relatively centrally located in the country it’s naturally ideal in terms of travel and accessibility.

The city has four airports within less than half an hour’s drive, helping to make it an easy transport hub for overseas as well.
Lying adjacent to the M1, Sheffield is also directly linked to many cities and towns all over the UK.
Added to all this, there are also speedy direct train links to London, and the possibility of a high-speed rail service if plans are approved.

Buy to Let Market

Regeneration and a buoyant job market combine to make Sheffield a very popular place for people to live, work and study.
The corresponding demand for homes, rental property, retail space and commercial units is increasing faster than it can be provided.
All of which leaves a very attractive area for investment, particularly with buy-to-let property.  We can attribute the resilience of the private rental market in Sheffield to the limited number of high-quality housing schemes that are available in central locations, particularly when compared to other cities.
Sheffield, IS the place to invest RIGHT NOW….

Boeing opened in Sheffield

Boeing, the world’s largest plane maker, has opened its first European manufacturing site here in Sheffield.  This lays testament to Sheffield’s capabilities.  And firmly confirms it’s place as part of the Norther Powerhouse Strategy.
Of course everyone has heard of Boeing.  Who hasn’t?  But just in case you didn’t know.  Boeing is a company that make components for 737 and 767 passenger jets.  This will now be happening in Sheffield!!  Home of the new UK operation site.  They aren’t stopping there either. 
There are already plans to produce thousands of parts each month which will be shipped to the US for assembly.

New facility creates jobs

As if Boeing coming to Sheffield was not amazing enough for this fabulous city.  Of course, when such a big company opens it’s doors, it is bound to lead to new jobs.
Boeing said the Sheffield factory has created 52 new jobs.  These include experienced mechanics, engineers and over 20 apprentices.  This is just what Sheffield needs.  The more jobs available, the more people will potentially move to the area and this will lead to more properties being needed.
It is said that Boeing have invested more than £40m in the facility.  They are expanding and this expansion is leading to partnerships. 
Boeing have said they are partnering with 13 UK-based suppliers for its expansion.  These include: Aeromet International, Maher, and Liberty Speciality Steels.

Building Relationships

Jenette Ramos, Boeing senior vice president of manufacturing, supply chain and operations, said:
“We appreciate all the community support for Boeing’s new advanced manufacturing factory in the UK.
This is a fabulous example of how we are engaging in global talent to provide greater value to our customers.
In Boeing Sheffield, we are building on longstanding relationships and the region’s manufacturing expertise to enhance our production system and continue to connect, protect, explore and inspire aerospace innovation.”

Why Sheffield?

Sheffield is seen as the heart of South Yorkshire.  Therefore, it makes sense to create the first European manufacturing site in Sheffield.  It is hard to believe a company as big as Boeing Open New Facility here in Sheffield.  But it just confirms Sheffield is a hot spot of the north and always growing in manufacturing.

Greg Clark, the secretary of state for business, energy and industrial strategy, confirmed this. 
He said:
“Boeing choosing the heart of South Yorkshire as its first European home is testament to our capabilities, talent pool and strong manufacturing supply chains which are vital to job creation and creating value for local economies.”

Proving a great place to invest

When such big companies, like Boeing bring their first European manufacturing site to Sheffield it confirms we are doing something write.

It is fast growing and becoming THE place to invest.  That is why we keep our properties in Sheffield.

Property Market in the North

2019 Property Market in the North, Still growing?  Well the quick answer is yes of course.
Let me explain why…

More Buoyant

Property Market in the North of England are expected to be more buoyant than their southern counterparts during 2019.  This is exciting news, isn’t it?
House prices in the north east have only recently returned to their pre-financial crisis highs and they still have some catching up to do with the rest of the UK.

What does this mean?

As a result, Hamptons International is expecting property values in the region to rise by 1% in 2019.  This would be the highest level of growth it is predicting for any area.
However, it does also state.  It expects prices to rise by 7% in the coming three years. Of course future growth will be dependent on some areas unlocking their potential through regeneration or infrastructure developments.

The Northern Powerhouse Strategy

Of course, much of this can be down to and dependant on some of the strategies to be implemented or that already have been by the Northern Powerhouse Strategy.
Price growth in other regions in northern England has been slowing in recent months.
This trend looks set to continue into next year, with Yorkshire and Humberside likely to see gains of 0.5%, while prices in the north west are expected to be flat.
