Birmingham Council’s Big City Plan is a 20-year masterplan to rejuvenate the city centre. Transport infrastructure is also undergoing historic levels of investment. Here are the highlights:
When completed in 2032, HS2 will bring London within 49 minutes and cut journey times to Edinburgh, Newcastle and Manchester. The city is home to HS2’s construction headquarters, so between now and project completion in 2032, over 1,500 jobs will be created in the city. The project is also stimulating local regeneration around the future station and is expected to deliver a GBP1.3 billion economic boost.
HIGH SPEED 2 (HS2)

Brindley Place’s premium dining and leisure offering attracts over 10,000 visitors every day.

SUPPLY
Birmingham is home to over 1.1 million people, a figure forecast to rise by 12.2% between 2012 and 2032. This influx is driven by employment opportunities and the lifestyle on offer – it is estimated that more than 6,000 people left London for Birmingham in 2015.

DEMAND
Growing confidence and a concerted effort from major land-owner Birmingham Council, is spurring a surge in construction activity across the city. Despite this, housing supply across Birmingham will struggle to meet soaring demand for many years ahead.
Birmingham needs 30,000 new homes by 2031
To meet growth ambitions, the Council’s Big City Plan is targeting to build a minimum of 5,000 new city-centre homes between 2011-2020
Confidence continues to rise, with more than 2,300 units to be delivered over the next three years. Ten new developments started on site in 2016 – up from only one in 2015
Development activity peaked in 2008, with 1,983 units delivered
Over 4,200 new households in Birmingham by 2021
Young professional demographic driving demand for city centre living
Home to over 75,000 companies, including 1,190 international firms

RESIDENTIAL UNITS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Birmingham property prices have seen steady appreciation for over a decade, and growth is on the cusp of accelerating. There is plenty of room for further uplift with prime city centre developments still relatively affordable compared to other major cities.
SALES MARKET
Rents are climbing across Birmingham, driven by the rising popularity of city centre living, unprecedented population growth and a shortage of rental stock to meet this demand. The average rent for a 1-bedroom city centre apartment is GBP700, with 2-beds receiving GBP900.
RENTAL MARKET
3.6% annual capital growth in 2014 which accelerated to 7.94% in the 12 months to February 2017
House price growth of 21.7% forecast between 2017-2021
The average price for 1 and 2-beds in the prime city centre is GBP172,500 and GBP250,000 respectively
High demand for rental accommodation saw average rents increase by 3.2% in 2016
Prime housing rents rose by 4.9% during 2016
Rental growth of 17.6% is forecast between 2017 and 2021
Private renting grew by 5% between 2001-2011 and continues to grow in popularity
