PRESTON PROPERTY MARKET

Preston has blossomed in recent years into a true buy-to-let hotspot. The city benefits from a young and growing population looking to capitalise on both the excellent opportunities on offer in the city, as well as those in surrounding areas that are easily accessible for commuters. The city is currently in the midst of a huge regeneration project, seeing significant transformation in the past 10 years to become the thriving community it is today. Preston City Council even earned the prestigious planning award for its strategy that is transforming the city, a strategy that is evident to see when looking into the city’s house prices.
