Amicus Property Finance has revealed that it is working on a new student development in Sheffield alongside other plans in Leeds and Manchester that will see the company significantly expand its presence in the North.

The 127 unit development in Sheffield is expected to start in the first quarter of 2017, with the build running the company £5 million in costs. This, they hope, will net them an asset in the city valued at £8.3 million.

Shoaib Bux, divisional director at Amicus Property Finance has said, "We've seen high levels of interest from the North, particularly from direct clients. Property development is often a complex process and we always look to deliver a solution that actively works with all our stakeholder partners. We build our most successful deals on the bedrock of effective collaboration and strong localised personal relationships."
