Sheffield Property Market Information

If you’re local to Sheffield you may know that the final phase of the £30 Million development at Anchor Point on Bramall Lane was opened this Thursday just gone. It was opened by Neil Warnock, Sheffield United Manager. Fairly appropriate as he and his premiership team would likely become your neighbours if you were to live there in the near future.

So what does this mean?

It means property value increase!!! With the scale of the development and investment at Anchor point, it will have attracted a lot of media attention on Sheffield in general. We believe that this is one of the little pushes Sheffield needed for the “snow ball effect” We believe that this maybe the start to Sheffield becoming a dominant business city on par with the likes of Manchester, Leeds and Birmingham. Sheffield is receiving huge amounts of investment and interest not only from the property development industry but from the Government as well. As you know the huge renovation project in Sheffield is Government backed, the renovation also includes the rebuilding of the train station, we will talk about the renovation of the train station in a later post. We believe within 10 years time Sheffield will be a vibrant, dominant city and will play a major part of the UK’s economy.

The £30 Million investment at Anchor Point, Bramall Lane will have great effects to the surrounding areas of Bramall Lane. The investment into the development will surely increase the value of nearby properties. We also believe that the insurance rating of the area will decrease, from a high risk area to a medium/low risk area. We believe that if the manager of Sheffield United and his team move into the area (as stated in newspapers locally) then due to the nature of the people staying their, security and police presence would increase. As insurance ratings drop, property value increases as properties are deemed more desirable due to the decreased risk on ones property. This would also increase the renting price in the local area, again due to the increase of desirability of one place.

If you’re a Blades Fan that’s the place for you :D
