Do this with me, close your eyes… tell me the first image that pops up in your head when you hear the word ‘Manchester’?
Let me guess, chances are: It’s something to do with football.
This automatic bias is the reason why investors are missing out great properties in Manchester (especially oversea investors). The word ‘Manchester’ doesn’t associate with the word ‘investment’ or ‘real estate’.
And that bias has a cost, an opportunity cost. Secretly, it causes many of us to miss all the shots to invest in one the most famous cities of England.
If you feel like that’s you, someone who never considered investing in Manchester, here’s a treat for you, read till the end, don’t let this be the “another one that got away”!
Remember this name. St. George’s Gardens

Why is Manchester a great place to invest?

Before we wrap up, here’s another little secret you may not know. The name ‘Manchester’ is a combination of “Mancunium” (Latin name for “Breast-like Hill”) and “ceaster” (Old English for ‘Roman town or city’). So Manchester basically means “Roman town on a breast-like hill”. Now that’s a City name with personality!
