Property investment stats for Addlestone, South East

• The average rental yield of 6.5% is attractive for those seeking income, especially with the top postcode district offering a yield of 6.3%.
• Liquidity is reasonable, with annual sales at 188 and properties spending an average of 62 days on the market, which should appeal to investors looking for movement.
• The median achieved minus asking price of £9,950 (the typical achieved discount) suggests there is some room for negotiation, potentially allowing buyers to secure deals below the initial asking price.

• Capital growth has been modest, with a 1-year capital growth of 0.1% and a 3-year annualised growth of 1.6%, so investors should not expect rapid appreciation.
• The proportion of private rented households is in the 60th percentile, which indicates strong competition for tenants.
• The current median asking rent for a 3-bedroom house at £2,250 and a 2-bedroom flat at £1,575 may limit demand if local incomes do not keep pace.

Looking ahead over the next 12 months, Addlestone is likely to maintain its appeal to income-focused investors given the strong rental yields of 6.5%. The area’s price-to-income ratio of 5.6 and rent-to-income ratio of 21.0% both suggest that affordability remains a support for both buyers and renters. Capital growth is expected to remain steady rather than spectacular, as signalled by the 1-year capital growth of 0.1% and 3-year annualised growth of 1.6%.

Liquidity is likely to stay healthy, given the annual sales of 188 and average days on market at 62 days. Investors should keep an eye on local competition in the rental sector, but overall the fundamentals point to a stable market with a bias to income rather than fast capital gains.
