Assetz To Fly Flag For North-West At National Residential Property Awards

Stockport-based property investment firm and advice service Assetz has been nominated for a top award by its peers.

The company will contest the title of ‘UK Sales Agency of the Year’ at the RESI Awards, organised by Property Week, which are designed to recognise and reward the leading players in all areas of the residential property market.

From developers and builders, through to funding specialists and property managers, the awards set out to pinpoint the pinnacles of achievement in each of these areas of expertise.

And as a result, Assetz CEO Stuart Law is delighted that his company has been singled out for attention in a highly competitive property investment market.

“At a time when there is a great deal of negative news on the investment climate generally in the UK, such awards show that there are plenty of companies which are always prepared to go the extra mile to secure the best possible deals for their clients,” he said.

“That’s what we’ve always been about at Assetz – getting to know thoroughly the property investment market, and then putting that knowledge to productive use in achieving strong and sustainable returns for the people who entrust their investments to us.”

Stuart Law and his colleagues at Assetz will find out whether they have been honoured with the prestigious UK Sales Agency of the Year award on 15 May, at the InterContinental London on Park Lane.

“We’re confident that we at Assetz will stake a strong claim for another prestigious honour this September, which we believe will be a feather in the cap of the residential property sector for the north-west”, Stuart Law added.

Still safe as houses

Leading property investment company reveals why investors should remain confident about putting their money into property.

Grim predictions for the UK economy in 2012 have left many people wondering where to turn to get the best possible return on their money.

But according to Greater Manchester-based property and investment specialists Assetz plc, high demand for rental property across the country’s major cities shows that there are still exciting opportunities to secure strong returns from property investment for buy-to-let.

Assetz CEO Stuart Law says that leading banks’ continuing tightening of their mortgage lending criteria for first-time buyers, and an unwillingness by homeowners to sell in a fragile market, point to a solid outlook for buy-to-let investors who can get the right financing package in place to take advantage of the right houses for sale UK.

“The shortage of apartments in cities such as Manchester and Liverpool is resulting in significant competition between tenants, and driving up rental values,” Law said.

“Banks refuse to fund much-needed development which is worsening the undersupply situation, and with no measurable levels of new-build properties completing in the foreseeable future, tenants are going to find themselves increasingly squeezed out of core areas.”

That view is echoed by Matthew Smith from Manchester estate agent Thornley Groves, who said: “There is an overwhelming demand for rental properties in Manchester city centre, which has driven rents up by as much as 20 per cent over the last year.”

He added that, last autumn, as many as 20 tenants had been chasing every available property in the city. “This has resulted in competition becoming extremely fierce,” he said, “with tenants often reserving properties without viewing to avoid missing out.”

Student investment properties always make solid investments in major cities, Stuart Law added, and because so few other properties are currently being built, those which become available are expected to remain in high demand for many years to come.
