But newer properties already comply with strict energy saving requirements so we can expect to see more buy-to-let interest in this area,&#8221; said Jim Coupe, Managing Director, Skipton International.<\/p>\n<p><b>Spotlight Two: Student accommodation as an investment<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The new EPC requirements may mean older properties put up for sale rather than the owner paying for renovations, and this presents an investment opportunity in the buy-to-let market for buyers willing to renovate.<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Walden, Senior Commercial Manager, Skipton International said:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;According to Connells, the UK&#8217;s largest property agency, rental properties in Bristol, Cardiff, Manchester, and Newcastle rose by 12 percent from December 2021 to August 2022 and our buy-to-let mortgages in these cities increased by GBP12 million during this period.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Students make up a sizeable portion of this market because they usually need to look at and book accommodation a full twelve months before their next academic year begins. This is one reason we are continuing to see a demand for buy-to-let mortgages in university towns.&#8221;*<\/p>\n<p><b>Spotlight Three: Bright prospects ahead <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Demonstrating a continued customer-centric approach, this year saw Skipton International refresh their mortgage and savings interest rates and introduce a new US$ savings product enabling customers to further diversify their investment portfolios.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By offering customers new US dollar savings accounts, refreshing interest rates, and reducing minimum loan amounts, Skipton International gave customers stability, flexibility and accessibility to the UK market during a year of high volatility. How the UK economy will play out in 2023 is uncertain, but we believe that our continued customer focus will help us navigate through any challenges that may arise,&#8221; concluded Coupe.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Skipton International announced unaudited interim results of Profit before Tax of GBP11.4 million for Quarter 3, first half year profits of GBP18 million and mortgage lending to the end of September 2022 was GBP334 million.<\/p>\n<p><b>More Information and Account Opening<\/b><\/p>\n<p>For more information about opening a Skipton International offshore bank account or buy-to-let mortgages, please visit<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skiptoninternational.com\/\" rel=\"sponsored\">www.skiptoninternational.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>*Connells is owned by Skipton Building Society.<\/p>\n<p><b>Hashtag: <\/b>#SkiptonInternational<\/p>\n<p><em>The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.media-outreach.com\/news\/hong-kong\/2022\/11\/16\/177719\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GUERNSEY, UK &#8211; Media OutReach &#8211; 16 November 2022 &#8211; Skipton International, the award-winning Guernsey-licensed bank, says next year&#8217;s UK property market in 2023 offers many opportunities for overseas investors, family offices and high net wealth individuals.
