Portman House represents an exceptional Buy-to-Let investment opportunity in Romford, one of the areas seeing significant regeneration as part of the £15.8bn Crossrail project – London’s largest transport project in over 20 years. Nothing boosts the value of homes more than a major transport upgrade, and from 2019 Romford will be served by the capital’s new Crossrail line (run by Hong Kong’s MTR Corporation) and will benefit from reduced commuting times, better and more frequent trains plus a direct link to the West End and to Heathrow Airport. Crossrail is already proving a huge catalyst for regeneration and forward-thinking home buyers and savvy investors are beginning to focus on the neighbourhoods being thrown into the spotlight by the new route. Properties adjacent to Crossrail stations such as Portman House are forecast to increase in value by 43% by 2020 and in the interim, investors might expect up to 6% rental yield.
