Property investment stats for Allerton Bywater, Yorkshire and The Humber

• The area offers strong rental yields, with the top postcode district achieving 6.3%, which is appealing for buy-to-let investors.
• Properties tend to sell quickly, with homes spending only 21 days on the market, indicating good liquidity for sellers.
• The price-to-income ratio of 4.1 makes Allerton Bywater relatively affordable, supporting both first-time buyers and investors seeking value.

• There is a relatively low proportion of private rented housing, in the 11th percentile, which may limit rental demand or future growth in the rental sector.
• The achieved price is typically £5,000 (the typical achieved discount) below asking, so sellers should be prepared for negotiation rather than expecting to achieve the full asking price.
• The area has a lower than average proportion of degree-educated residents and professionals, which could affect long-term demand from higher-income tenants or buyers.

Looking ahead, Allerton Bywater appears well-positioned for stable performance. The recent one-year capital growth of 3.4% and the three-year figure of 19.5% both signal ongoing demand. The affordability, reflected in a price-to-income ratio of 4.1, should help underpin further activity from both owner-occupiers and investors.

With homes selling in just 21 days and a healthy annual sales figure of 78, I expect liquidity to remain strong. The family-friendly profile of the area and high levels of owner-occupation suggest a stable community, but with private renting less common, rental investors may want to keep an eye on local demand patterns. Overall, I see measured optimism for the next 12 months, especially for those focused on long-term growth and steady yields.
