The next twelve months look positive for Adlington, with steady fundamentals underpinning the market. Given the one-year capital growth of 6.7% and the annualised three-year rate of 4.0%, investors can expect measured, reliable performance rather than dramatic spikes or dips.
Liquidity should remain stable, as evidenced by the current days on market figure (48 days) and the lack of median discounting. Rental yields, particularly in the top district (6.0%), provide a solid case for ongoing buy-to-let interest. In summary, Adlington is likely to reward patience and a long-term approach, with affordability and consistent demand offering reassurance for both new and seasoned investors.
