Off-plan property investment in Manchester
Manchester is the strongest performing of the UK's big regional cities on both of the measures that decide whether an investment works: what the asset is worth, and what it earns.
See the developmentsWhat the Manchester figures actually say.
The average Manchester flat was worth £113,126 in June 2015 and £195,385 in June 2026 on Land Registry figures, growth of 72.7% over eleven years, and across all property types the city average rose 90.8% over the same period.
Rents have kept pace. The average private rent reached £1,365 a month in July 2026, up 3.8% over the year on ONS figures, and letting an average flat at the ONS average flat rent of £1,142 a month gives a gross yield of about 7.0%. JLL forecasts sales price growth of 22% and rental growth of 18.8% between 2025 and 2029. We looked at the Manchester rental market in more detail in a separate note.
Amoka’s Manchester list sits where the tenant demand actually is: the city centre core, the Trafford and Cornbrook corridor on the Metrolink, and Salford Quays and MediaCity. Gross yield is stated before mortgage costs, management, service charge, ground rent, voids and tax, and the market figures above are city averages, not scheme specific. Register your interest on any development and we will send the full particulars and the current pricing schedule.
What we check in Manchester
- ✓The developer's completed schemes, and whether they landed on the date they were sold on
- ✓Walking distance to a Metrolink stop or a station, because that is what the tenant is renting
- ✓The service charge per square foot, and the tenure and ground rent on the lease
- ✓The from-price against what comparable stock in the same postcode actually sells for
- ✓The payment plan, so you know what falls due at exchange and what falls due on completion
Developments available in Manchester
Every scheme carries the real developer, the from-price, the projected gross yield, the completion date and the payment plan, so you can compare them on the same terms rather than on the brochure.
