The urban planning of Manchester and the increasing popularity of padel have recently been praised by a Singaporean property investment syndicate. The founder of the Singapore-based real estate investment firm Crestbrick PTE Ltd, Germaine Chow, cited Manchester’s well-defined master plan as well as the city’s thriving tech and entrepreneurial scenes as key attractions for her clientele.
Chow, who accompanied a group of 130 investors from Southeast Asia to the UK, highlighted Manchester’s attractiveness since it has lower overhead expenses than London and a robust education sector that draws companies and offices. Manchester is among the more than 400 million properties in the UK that the syndicate has already invested in.
The construction of Deansgate Square, which turned an abandoned parking lot into a bustling neighborhood, is one noteworthy project in which the syndicate has been involved. Chow also commended the launch of Club De Padel in Deansgate Square, which enhances the city’s facilities and meets the sport’s increasing demand.
Manchester is not an exception to the global upsurge in popularity of padel, a sport that blends aspects of tennis and squash. Residents enjoy the sport because it’s social and accessible, and the syndicate’s backing of Club De Padel and other such facilities shows their dedication to improving the city’s lifestyle options.
Chow’s syndicate is still actively involved in influencing Manchester’s real estate market, collaborating with developers to attract capital and create thriving communities. The future of Manchester and padel appears bright, thanks to the city’s clear goal and the sport’s increasing popularity.
