Major UK Government Announcement: £54.6 Billion Investment Plan Opens the Door to Strategic Property Opportunities
Property investors should be paying close attention. In June 2025, the UK government unveiled a transformative £54.6 billion plan to invest in housing and infrastructure over the next decade. This isn’t just another policy update—it’s a signal of long-term opportunity across key regions. At Fortis Wainwright, we’ll be closely tracking these developments and highlighting the locations and strategies that offer the strongest potential returns for our clients.
Whether you’re investing domestically or from overseas, timing and positioning will be key to capitalising on this new wave of regeneration. Here’s what you need to know:
What’s in the Plan?
• £39 billion for housing: This will fund the construction of new homes, retrofit older housing stock, and significantly expand the availability of affordable rental properties across the UK.
• £15.6 billion for infrastructure: Targeted transport and infrastructure upgrades including the Transpennine Route Upgrade, East-West Rail, and improvements to regional and local transport networks.
• Urban renewal and regeneration: A strong focus on transforming brownfield sites, rejuvenating town centres, and stimulating development in underutilised areas.
• Sustainability and energy efficiency: Major funding directed towards green building initiatives and environmental upgrades, encouraging modern, future-proof construction practices.
Infrastructure: A Proven Catalyst for Capital Growth
History shows that when new infrastructure is introduced, property prices tend to rise. A notable example is the Elizabeth Line (formerly Crossrail), which drove double-digit price growth in surrounding areas well before it became operational.
We expect to see similar upward trends in:
• Oxfordshire & Cambridgeshire, along the East-West Rail corridor
• Greater Manchester & Yorkshire, as part of the Transpennine Route enhancements
• The Midlands, where brownfield redevelopment is aligned with improved connectivity
Investors who act early in these emerging hotspots could benefit from both rental yield and capital appreciation as demand increases.
Tight Housing Supply Creates Early-Stage Advantage
Although the government’s plan aims to increase affordable housing, delivery will take years—meaning demand will continue to outpace supply in the short term. This creates opportunities for strategic investors to secure properties at lower price points in high-growth areas.
Key benefits include:
• Access to undervalued markets in secondary towns and suburbs
• High buy-to-let potential in locations seeing increased footfall and local economic activity
• Value growth driven by improved infrastructure and amenities

Social housing—often referred to as supported living—offers a unique avenue for investors to partner with the UK government in addressing the housing and care needs of society’s most vulnerable individuals. To expand the availability of suitable accommodation, supported living providers enter into long-term lease agreements on privately owned residential properties. Under this model, both the rental costs and care services are fully funded by the government.
This form of socially responsible real estate investment, commonly known as social housing property investment, provides investors with recently refurbished freehold homes. These properties come with the benefit of secure, long-duration leases that deliver consistent rental income and include professional maintenance management from the outset.
One of the primary advantages of investing in social or supported living properties is the fixed income they offer. These investments are backed by fully repairing and insuring (FRI) lease agreements with housing associations, meaning investors are not burdened with maintenance costs, vacancy risks, or tenant-related concerns.
Because residents in social housing require ongoing care, the housing provider assumes full responsibility for managing tenants and maintaining the property. With rent fully funded by the government, investors benefit from a secure, hands-off income stream typically lasting up to 25 years.
