Brighton Property represents a wise choice on more than just the lifestyle choice level! Even through the past few years volatile market Brighton, along with perhaps only London, has managed to not only maintain its property values - it has continued to grow in value.
Brighton Property offers a number of specifically positive points for the buyer – and especially the first time buyer.
The population of Brighton continues to grow year on year – and although by anyone’s calculation proeprty can be expensive here – it still offers a sound investment future. The young professional is far more likely to be able to afford a studio apartment in Brighton than London – and that studio will be far more attractively located in Brighton than it certainly would be in a London suburb. The purchase of a studio in Brighton will offer a better location than say a similarly priced London studio out in Zone 4 – a location which still allows for easy after work travel to meet friends on the sea front for a beer, or a group evening out for pizza. Living in Zone 4 of London then its unlikely you’ll get home after work and be prepared to retrace your steps back into town – and whats left over from your living costs similarly discourages you!
But what of the property value of your residence? Can the young Brighton professional be as confident of their investment as their London counter-part?
Historically the answer has been yes. In terms of percentage rates at least. Year on year Brighton property has out grown most other UK cities, even allowing for the huge surges that swept liek waves over some Northern cities like Leeds and Manchester – a wave that ebbed just as fast as it arrived! The average percentage growth for each of the last 5 years has been in the range of 10% – even absorbing the big dip that threatened to burst through when the whole UK market was losing its nerve.
RDA Property Services are a dedicated property investment company focussed only on Brighton and Hove – and after 15 years of property value growth they see no sign of the trend really ending. Jean Shillinglaw, the company MD says:
Brighton and Hove, as a city, is set between the immovable boundaries of the sea and the South Downs – and with a popluation growth which is greater in percentage than even London – more and more people are wanting property in a land space which CANNOT expand – the demand for existing property will only increase. Quality developments outside the city will take some of that growth stress – but, of course, people moving to Brighton want the Brighton lifestyle – and thats not to be had 30 minutes drive out of the city!’

I think brighton property investment can be summed up quickly, perhaps stating the demand by young proffessionals for central locations is very high and the space for properties is very low. Space is a major issue in brighton and hove by keeping a balance of housing and offices which are centrally located.
