Should you invest in Abergele?

Opportunities

  • The strong one-year capital growth of 4.7% suggests potential for further appreciation.
  • Rental yields in the top performing postcode district are 4.4%, offering a steady income stream.
  • The median asking price for a 3-bedroom house is £255,000, which, combined with a price-to-income ratio of 5.5, keeps entry costs relatively manageable for investors.

Risks

  • The population is heavily skewed towards older residents, in the 98th percentile for those aged 60 and above, which may limit future demand from younger buyers or renters.
  • Family households are in the 8th percentile and population aged 30-40 is in the 10th percentile, pointing to a limited pool of younger, long-term occupiers.
  • The discount between achieved and asking price is £4,495 (the typical achieved discount), suggesting sellers may need to be flexible on price.

Outlook

The next 12 months in Abergele look stable, with steady demand from older residents and retirees. Given the recent capital growth of 4.7% and the three-year annualised figure of 5.3%, property values appear well-supported. Affordability, as measured by a price-to-income ratio of 5.5, remains attractive for buyers compared to many parts of the UK.

Rental yields in the best-performing district are 4.4%, which should appeal to income-focused investors. However, the demographic profile means there is limited scope for rapid change in demand, so investors should expect gradual, steady returns rather than dramatic shifts.
