Oldham to self-deliver Spindles redevelopment 

The Manchester-based property developer has launched a consultation for its 402-apartment community living project, complete with a sky bar.

Despite scepticism over the number of new homes being delivered in the city, a report by property manager Urbanbubble shows that the rental market in the central Manchester area is thriving – and breaking records.

JP Maguire Developments is behind plans to transform the Davenport Street building into 120 apartments. 

Bury Council’s cabinet has signed off land sales to the housebuilders that will see the creation of 225 homes in the town. 

The real estate investor, headed up by former JLL North West chairman David Lathwood, is relocating its operations from Bolton to Oxford Court in the city centre. 

Peter Denton, chief executive of Homes England, the powerful government-backed housing delivery agency, has joined the lineup for this high-level debate due to be hosted by Place North West next month.

Residents can now move into the first 121 homes of the Salford scheme, which will ultimately have a total of 394 furnished and unfurnished apartments and townhouses for rent.

Talks that would see Salford City FC move from the Peninsula Stadium to the AJ Bell Stadium - with rugby league side Salford Red Devils going in the opposite direction - are at an “advanced stage”, according to the city council. 

Plans are in for the large housing project that stretches across two plots: four acres off Rosary Road and nearly 18 acres at Hill Farm Close.
