UK Holiday Resorts Go Upmarket

Certain holiday resorts have gained hugely in property prices in the last 4 years – these are select “bucket and spade” type resorts which the middle class used to frequent in the 1970s – the parents are now coming back either with their families or to retire. Examples include: areas of Cornwall, Norfolk, Lancashire and West Sussex.

Identifying the next ultra-popular small resort to invest in is a way of maximising value for your property investment portfolio. Resorts that Off Plan Investments recognise having particular potential are Blackpool and all along the Fylde coastline through to Southport and the Wirral.

Properties with sea-views should be targeted. The bottom line is, there are not many properties in the UK with sea views – many of the 15 million or so baby boomers will want these views, so the prices are more likely than not to go up for such investment property, especially as it is so difficult to obtain planning permission for new properties with sea views – land is scarce and people generally don’t agree with the idea of altering the coastal views, or changing the character of existing buildings.
