For Investors

A High-Yield Skyline Gem-Priced at £330,000, this two-bedroom apartment commands net yields around 5% after service charges ground rent. Currently in high demand, it’s a turnkey investment in Manchester’s central business district, where property values are forecast to grow 29.4% by 2029 (Savills). The 239-year leasehold and EWS1-compliant status ensure long-term value, though cash buyers are recommended due to market preferences. Its prime location, a 5-minute walk from Spinningfields and Salford Central Station (0.3 miles), attracts professionals and students (University of Manchester, 1 mile). The extensive amenities-gym, co-working spaces, and resident events-enhance tenant appeal, making this a low-maintenance, high-return asset for buy-to-let investors. North Property Group’s management services simplify ownership, handling tenant sourcing and maintenance.
