Property investment stats for Amble, North East

• The price-to-income ratio of 4.5 makes Amble relatively accessible for buyers compared to many UK markets.
• Median discounts on achieved versus asking prices stand at £2,000 (the typical achieved discount), offering potential for negotiation.
• The top-performing postcode district achieves a rental yield of 3.9%, which may appeal to those seeking income over growth.

• The area has seen capital values change by -3.8% in the past year, highlighting the risk of short-term price movement.
• The population skews older, with the 60+ group in the 92nd percentile, which may limit long-term tenant demand and reduce turnover.
• Social rented housing is in the 92nd percentile, potentially limiting the size of the private rental sector.

The outlook for Amble is steady but lacks the dynamism seen in more youthful or economically vibrant towns. With annual sales at 146 and homes spending 41 days on the market, investors can expect moderate liquidity, though not a rapid turnover. The current median asking sale price for a 3-bedroom house is £230,000, with rents at £1,300, which should support stable yields if demand remains consistent.

However, the town's demographic profile and high proportion of social rented housing mean growth prospects are likely to remain modest. Investors seeking capital appreciation may need to look elsewhere, but those interested in stable, affordable entry and steady income could find Amble fits the bill.
