This one-bedroom, 529 sq ft new-build apartment in M15 sits in Manchester city centre and is aimed squarely at investors seeking strong rental returns. The unit is finished to a high-spec contemporary standard with an efficient open-plan layout, modern bathroom and compact laundry, making it straightforward to let to students or young professionals.
Location is a clear strength: city-centre proximity to universities, employers in tech, finance and media, excellent public transport links, very low local crime, and fast broadband and mobile connectivity that tenants value. The developer is reputable and the building presents modern, low-maintenance fittings that reduce short-term expenditure for a landlord.
Notable concerns are factual and material. The property’s tenure is listed as unknown — this must be confirmed before purchase. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which can affect long-term capital growth and tenant mix; nearby schools are mixed in performance. Prospective buyers should also confirm service charges, ground rent and any buying restrictions associated with the new-build.
For investors focused on rental income, the apartment offers potential yields reported up to 7% (estimate). Its compact, contemporary layout and central location make it practical to manage and attractive to the target tenant pool, but do verify tenure, exact service costs and any reservation of rights before proceeding.
