Liverpool continues to establish itself as one of the UK’s most resilient and attractive property investment locations, supported by ongoing regeneration, strong tenant demand, and a growing economy. Against this backdrop, DBR Investment Group successfully delivered Dockside Lodge, a strategic redevelopment project that transformed a former commercial property into a fully operational 20-bed hostel accommodation scheme.
Completed in April 2018, Dockside Lodge demonstrates DBR Investment Group’s ability to identify underutilised assets, unlock development potential, and deliver profitable investment opportunities through strategic planning, refurbishment expertise, and efficient project execution.
Strategic Redevelopment in a High-Demand Liverpool Location

The redevelopment included:
Full internal refurbishment
Conversion into 20 self-contained bedsits
Structural and layout optimisation
External alterations and visual improvements
Modernisation works to meet operational accommodation standards
The project was carefully structured to meet increasing demand for affordable and flexible accommodation within Liverpool while simultaneously enhancing the asset’s capital value and income-generating potential.
By repositioning the property into a high-demand residential accommodation model, DBR Investment Group successfully created a sustainable investment asset capable of delivering strong occupancy levels and attractive long-term returns.
