Property investment stats for Annesley Woodhouse, East Midlands

• The top postcode district rental yield of 5.7% is attractive, especially given the affordable entry prices.
• Properties are achieving their asking prices on average (median achieved minus asking price is £0 (the typical achieved discount)), suggesting sellers and buyers are well-matched.
• With a median rent for a three-bedroom house at £1,516, rental returns are competitive for the area.

• The area has a high proportion of older residents (in the 80th percentile), which could temper long-term rental demand growth.
• The student and degree-educated population percentiles are both low (2nd and 13th), which may limit appeal for certain tenant segments.
• Private renting is less common here (37th percentile), so investors may face a smaller pool of prospective tenants compared to more rental-heavy locations.

Given the strong one-year capital growth of 9.8% and a three-year track record that’s well above average, I expect investor interest to remain firm. The area’s affordability, with a price-to-income ratio of 4.0, should help support continued demand from both buyers and renters. Liquidity looks solid, with properties selling in a median of 42 days and sales volumes steady at 99 a year.

Rental yields are appealing, especially for those targeting the top postcode district with yields of 5.7%. While the older demographic may keep rental demand stable rather than surging, the fundamentals are reassuring. Overall, Annesley Woodhouse looks set for steady performance over the next year, with limited downside given the current pricing and supply-demand balance.
