Boltons regional, national and international profile has never been higher. From the sporting success of Bolton Wanderers and Amir Khan to the cultural impact of personalities of Peter Kay and Sara Cox, Bolton has a distinctive and unique brand that has well and truly put it on the map. It is also a major economic force both in the region and the country. A host of top name companies have their base in Bolton, from Hitachi, RBS and Reebok, to the UK’s 2nd most important retail brand, Warburtons. Added to this, Bolton has the regions fasted growing profession-focused University. Playing a significant role in the development of the Knowledge economy in the North West. Bolton is currently ranked as one of the best places in the UK to start a new business and is increasingly being recognised as the strategic investor destination of choice for real estate investors. Bolton is currently one of the largest towns in England, with a population of 250,000 and hotly tipped to be given “City” status as part of the Queens Diamond Jubilee celebrations in 2012, which will further enhance the profile of this regional powerhouse.

In spite of the gloomy economic climate, the student accommodation sector has remained extraordinarily buoyant, kept afloat by the imbalance of supply and demand of student housing felt in many university cities across the UK. With the assurance of a guaranteed long-term income and appealing yields of between 8% and 10% depending on location and the leasing agreement, investors have been snapping up purpose built student accommodation residences left, right and centre, with an estimated £347,675,000 committed to the sector in the UK since the beginning of 2011. Indeed, student numbers have been rising year-on-year over the last five years, increasing by 4% last year alone according to recent studies with the growth in university students putting considerable pressure on the existing student housing stock across the country. Concerns over the impact on demand due to the forthcoming £9000 a year student tuition fees have been allayed as students will not need to pay any of charges upfront, a key factor in upholding existing levels of housing demand and ensuring upward pressure on rents. In fact, ithas been suggested that the increased fees will place greater importance on value for money and improved quality with student accommodation playing a significant part in the overall university experience.
