Wealth and Property News: From Smarter Money Advice with UBS, to a Modern Housing Estate from Karbon Homes
Development Incoming
North East property consultancy George F. White has relocated its head office to Newcastle city centre on Dean Street. This is in light of high levels of growth for the business and an increasing interest in residential and commercial property development in the North East. Further investment and property development in the region are a win win in our book.
Durham Expansion
Karbon Homes have unveiled plans to transform ex-sports centre Roseberry Sports Community College in Chester-le-Street into a modern housing estate to help increase the area’s affordable housing market – totalling 68 rent-to-buy properties, 31 apartments for over-50s, and eight bungalows.
North East Attraction
Money goes further in the North East – properties tend to offer more space for the same cost as detached and semi-detached homes elsewhere. With the demand for personal space rising, alongside increased working from home, buyers are looking to the North East more than ever. In North Tyneside, the average house price-to-earnings ratio is 4.3 (this is also the only region in England where the least affordable ratio is below 6.7). This means that your money goes further, even in the most luxurious ends of the region.
