Whilst we specialise in residential and student property here at Knight Knox, we also have a range of alternative property investment opportunities for investors looking for something a little bit different. From holiday lodges to bonds, to supported living accommodation, no matter the type of investment you’re looking for we’ll be sure to have something for you!
Commercial properties are an excellent avenue for investors looking to expand and diversify their property portfolio, offering a number of benefits to investors looking for a long-term investment.
The supported living market is one of the most secure and profitable markets, with many properties receiving above-average rental yields whilst also being protected by long-term government leases in the majority of cases.
When building a successful property portfolio, diversification is a crucial strategy that allows you to spread your risk across different asset classes.
By investing in a range of properties, such as residential, commercial, and alternative assets like holiday lets or property bonds, you reduce the impact of market fluctuations and protect your investments. Diversification ensures that your portfolio isn’t overly reliant on one sector, providing stability even during economic downturns.
Alternative property investments go beyond traditional residential or commercial real estate.
These non-conventional assets include holiday rentals, supported living accommodations, storage units, land development projects, and property bonds. Alternative property investments offer investors a unique opportunity to diversify their portfolios and capitalise on sectors that are often overlooked but hold significant potential for high returns.
The UK holiday let investment market is experiencing rapid growth, fuelled by the country’s thriving tourism industry. Millions of visitors flock to the UK’s captivating landscapes, historic sites, and vibrant cities each year, ensuring a strong demand for holiday accommodation.
Since the pandemic, there has been a significant shift in holiday preferences, with many UK residents opting for staycations in popular domestic destinations such as the Lake District, Wales, and Cornwall. This trend has made holiday lets a highly profitable and attractive investment option.
Assisted living properties provide a secure and stable investment, with many developments backed by long-term government leases and financial incentives.
This type of investment is particularly appealing due to the increasing demand for specialised housing for elderly or disabled individuals, driven by the UK’s ageing population. Investors can expect steady rental income over the long term, making supported living properties a reliable and socially impactful choice.
Student accommodation offers some of the highest yields in the property investment market, with net returns typically ranging between 4% and 6%. With a 30% increase in student enrolment over the past decade, demand for student housing continues to grow, especially in key university cities. This high demand ensures consistent rental income, making student accommodation a highly lucrative and reliable investment option.
Property bonds offer a lower-risk investment compared to stocks and shares, providing a more stable income stream.
These bonds allow investors to earn regular returns without the volatility associated with other asset classes. Moreover, the entry cost is often lower than purchasing a traditional investment property, making property bonds an excellent choice for those looking to diversify their portfolio with minimal risk.
