Property Market Summary - May 2015 In recent times, the residential property market in the North West has provided for higher yields than any other region in the country, with an average of 7.1%. Liverpool has been one of the best performing areas for investors in the North West in this period. This vibrant city has gone through massive amounts of regeneration, to accommodate its booming population.
The Liverpool property market has seen extremely buoyant growth in the last 12 months with typical residential property values increasing by 5% - 5.8% on average across the majority of price ranges. Rental values have also increased by 3% - 4% with the ever diminishing supply of stock. Demand is very strong for City Centre / Docklands apartments from future owner occupiers and potential tenants alike. It is predicted that for the next 5 years at least, this current demand will continue to match and potentially outstrip supply and therefore improve and increase values further, particularly in the City. Liverpool city should continue to outperform the region, as it still offers good value compared to other major UK cities such as London or Manchester. The prospect of further growth in the next 5 - 10 years is very strong, as Liverpool establishes itself as one of the leading city locations in the UK. Many key investors are attracted by this prospective growth and the proposed future groundbreaking developments within the City, including Stanley Dock which is a completely unique development opportunity. Developments within Liverpool have historically (from 2003), had a primarily “buy to let” focus. This has resulted in a lack of penthouse and premium quality apartments of substantial size, to satisfy the ever growing demand from owner occupiers who wish to live in the city, in addition to the demand from key investors.

Key Schemes to Change Liverpool Forever
Liverpool Waters - The regeneration of 60 Hectares of Liverpool’s historic dockland to create a world-class, high-quality, mixed-use waterfront quarter in Central Liverpool. The development will create a unique ‘sense of place’ taking advantage of the sites’ cultural heritage and integrating it with exciting and sustainable new development. Liverpool waters will contribute substantially to the growth and development of the city, allowing ease of the movement and strong connections between the northern end of Liverpool Waters, its hinterland and the city centre. It will accommodate new and existing residents, attract national and international businesses and encourage a significant increase in the number of visitors to the city, adding to Liverpool’s cultural offer and providing a new and complementary destination. Princes Dock is Phase 1 of Liverpool Waters and is already home to an array of world renowned businesses including Coutts, KMPG and PWC.
Superport - Superport is an integrated cluster of logistics assets and expertise that will deliver faster,"greener global market access for business to and from the northern UK and Ireland via an enlarged post-Panamax container port. Superport provides rapid reach to 35 million people within a 150-mile radius."It"stretches from the historic Port of Liverpool along the Manchester Ship Canal and the heart of the northern UK road and rail network, via 2 airports, and across 2 national Enterprise Zones plus the highest density of warehousing in the UK. Superport is undergoing £1+ billion intermodal infrastructure investment, and from late"2015 the new deep-water Liverpool2 terminal will be able to service 95% of the world’s largest container ships, opening up faster supply chain transit for at least 50% of the existing UK container market. Liverpool One - Redevelopment of the prime city centre retail areas, Liverpool ONE is the huge open-air shopping and leisure district at the heart of the city. It offers a multitude of high-profile stores with more than 160 famous high street shops, ultra-hip fashion brands and cool independent boutiques. Expect famous names like John Lewis, Debenhams, Apple, Hollister and the only Harvey Nichols Beauty Bazaar in the country. For the kids, there’s Lego and Disney Stores, plus Build-a-Bear Workshop. This has created a far more attractive city centre and it now acts as a major counter balance to the retail draw of Manchester and Birmingham. Liverpool has since moved from the 17th to the 5th most popular shopping destination in the UK.

Lewis’s building and Central Village - Adagio Apart hotel is already open in the iconic Lewis’s building as it undergoes a multi-million pound redevelopment. Behind the front doors a fully functioning gym is waiting to be used, though PureGym has now delayed opening until April after initially hoping to do so late last year. Meanwhile, Lidl is due to enter the site while one of the site’s neighboring buildings has been leveled this year as Renshaw Street changes before our eyes. New exhibition centre - The rooftop of the £58m Waterfront complex was completed late last year and the developers behind Exhibition Centre Liverpool are planning a grand opening of the site in September. Before then there will be a series of summer events and opening celebrations to mark the completion of this huge project, which will also see a four-star hotel form part of the new complex. Rat and Parrot - Earlier this year the ECHO revealed £1m plans to transform the empty Rat and Parrot pub in Queen Square. The three-storey property, on the corner of Whitechapel and Hood Street, has been empty since Christmas 2011 but it is set to be transformed into a retail and leisure complex. Passed by thousands of people using the Queen Square bus station everyday, it is hoped that the site will prove popular and work is expected start in the spring. Doubletree at the Hilton - Liverpool’s new four-star Hilton hotel – housed in one of the city’s finest historic buildings – is just months away from opening and bosses have just announced Michelin-starred chef Jean-Christophe Novelli will have a restaurant at the site.The Grade-II listed former Municipal Annexe, at the corner of Dale Street and Sir Thomas Street, is being extensively restored and is expected to be a show-stopping venue to add to Liverpool’s hotel scene. Lime Street - Developers Neptune are drawing up plans that would result in large scale changes on Lime Street, with the landscape between The Vines and The Crown are particularly expected to change dramatically. Last month the company distanced itself from images showing student accommodation and a hotel replacing historic facades, and said it hoped to keep the front of the Futurist cinema, but expect more information to be revealed this year on the plans for Lime Street. The image here is a "merely illustrative" design by Infinite 3D. Castle Street - The listed Queen Building on Castle Street is undergoing a huge renovation, with ongoing work obvious to anyone walking down this busy street as the entrance remains hidden by hoardings. This year that work is set to be complete with Tune Hotels becoming the latest hotel in the city’s business district. The site will also see the arrival of popular Argentinianthemed restaurant CAU. Student development on Myrtle Street/Hope Street - If you travel into the city down Myrtle Street it is impossible to miss the large scale student accommodation construction site on the road’s junction with Hope Street. The first in the UK to be built using bedrooms built abroad and shipped in crates to be stacked up on top of each other on site, the scheme will see more than 300 students accommodated in the building once it is complete. More Student flats at Hatton Garden - At the other end of the city centre is another large scale student accommodation development, costing £25m. This 11-storey development will have 397 rooms, in addition to a student bar, gym, parking and shops.There are lots of student developments in the city, but the size of this project truly makes it stand out.

The Royal Hospital - On the outskirts of the city centre this is a project that has a major impact on everyone in the city. Due for completion in 2017. The new Royal is being built on the corner of West Derby Street and Low Hill, behind the existing hospital, and will be an obvious change to Liverpool’s skyline." Royal Court - The popular city centre theatre is undergoing renovation work, the latest stage comprising changes to its entrance. The refurbishment sees the extension of the building to fill the space currently covered by a canopy which will allow the Box Office to be moved to the front of the building. According to theatre chiefs the new entrance will be a “striking addition” to the site while lifts are being added to all areas of the theatre. A new basement venue will also be included.

Commercial Space – Tobacco Warehouse " The Tobacco Warehouse, once completed, is due to contain approx. 60,000 sq.ft. of space at ground floor level." This space will comprise flexible floor plates, which can be split to suit occupiers requirements." This space will be provided in the following phases. " Phase 1 - West Bays - 19,375 Sq.Ft. Phase 2 - Centre Bays - 18,837 Sq.Ft. Phase 3 - East Bays - 21,528 Sq.Ft. " It is envisaged that this space would be occupied by a mixture of retail, leisure, tourist and other commercial occupiers, in order to create a vibrant mixed use development." Many occupiers, particularly restaurant and other leisure users, would likely be attracted to the site due to its waterfront position, with direct access onto the dockside available from many of the units." The fact that 503 apartments are due to be built overhead will be a great draw to commercial occupiers." Equally the existence of these conveniently located commercial occupiers, should boost demand from residential occupiers and therefore increase potential residential values. "
