Scholar’s Quarter is a UK investment property opportunity, a collection of 100 apartments in the heart of Birmingham’s vibrant historic district, the Jewellery Quarter. Choose from one and two bedroom apartments across six interconnected buildings with lush-planted private residents’ courtyards and views of the city skyline from the top floors.

The JQ has seen rapid population growth increasing by 103.5% between 2001-2011. Today, 68% of its tenants are aged between 18 and 29. Within the neighbourhood over a third of residents walk to work (compared with a city average of 17%), thus showing its popularity as a desirable place to live for working professionals, close to the CBD. It’s also perfectly placed to capitalise on the post-pandemic changed lifestyle choice of desiring a lesser commute time into the office.

JLL has forecasted Birmingham to have the strongest rental growth of any UK city; predicting a 3.5% rise in rents in 2022 and a further 3% rise in 2023 with a 5-year rental growth prediction of 14%.

Buying property in birmingham

The Jewellery Quarter is one of Birmingham’s top-10 places to live, making Scholars Quarter an attractive property investment opportunity. It’s a vibrant neighbourhood thrumming with cafes, restaurants and retail also within easy walking distance of Birmingham’s main attractions and places of work.

The JQ is a protected area of historical interest and this is reflected in its architecture and streetscapes, a large part of what makes it such a popular place to live. Incredibly, it remains the place where 40% of British jewellery is made, giving it a unique sense of industry.

Savills predicts that Birmingham will be one of the UK’s fastest growing regions forecasting a property price rise of 24% by 2025. Likewise, Birmingham’s growing population, set to hit 1.24million by 2030 is driving demand for quality accommodation in the city, with the advent of HS2 pushing demand further, making Birmingham the epicentre of the UK’s new high-speed network. Hence why, the city remains a top location for investors interested in UK property investment opportunities.
