Why Invest in Middlesbrough?

If you watched our Investor Q&A video you will know that our CEO, Arif Mushtaq, chose to base his student housing and property development business in Middlesbrough after attending university here and seeing the opportunities that lay in the area for himself. 

A bustling town in the North East of England, Middlesbrough has undergone a huge regeneration in recent years and has a lot to offer in terms of development and investment due to the high demand. 

Here are just a few of the reasons why we think investing in property in Middlesbrough is a smart move:

1. Compared to other parts of the UK, property and land prices in Middlesbrough are relatively low. This means that we can acquire property and land for much less than we would pay in other areas, such as Birmingham or Manchester.

2. Middlesbrough has a strong rental market, with a high demand for rental properties - Ashrbookes two estate agency branches are testament to this! The town attracts a large number of students year on year, making rental properties in Middlesbrough a reliable and steady stream of rental income.

3. Middlesbrough is undergoing a significant regeneration program, with millions of pounds being invested in the town's infrastructure and facilities. This investment is attracting new businesses and residents to the area, and driving up demand for homes.

4. Middlesbrough has great transport links and is well-connected to other parts of the UK, with easy access to major cities such as London, Newcastle, and Leeds. The town also has its own airport, which provides easy access to international destinations.

So, from affordable property prices to high rental demand, investing in property in Middlesbrough offers a range of benefits and the town certainly has a bright future ahead.
