Property investment stats for Audenshaw, North West

• Rental yields are attractive, with an average of 6.8%, and the top postcode district yielding 6.0%.
• Properties move quickly, with a median of 22 days on the market, indicating healthy demand and liquidity.
• Families make up a significant part of the local population, in the 67th percentile, which supports ongoing demand for larger homes such as 3-bedroom houses with a median asking price of £300,000.

• The proportion of private rented housing is only in the 29th percentile, so growth in the rental sector may be slower than in areas with a larger tenant base.
• The degree-educated population and professionals are both below the national median, which may limit demand at the higher end of the market.
• With capital growth having changed by 1.1% over the past year, the market appears to be entering a more stable phase after a strong surge.

Looking ahead, Audenshaw’s property market appears set for a period of stability. The combination of strong three-year capital growth and a recent moderation in annual growth suggests the area is consolidating its gains rather than overheating. With owner-occupation high and a healthy number of annual sales at 203, the market should remain liquid and accessible for buyers and sellers alike.

Affordability remains a draw, especially for families and first-time buyers, and the steady rental yields should keep the area attractive for landlords. Demand for larger homes is likely to persist, given the demographic profile. Overall, I expect the next 12 months to be steady, with growth likely to track broader regional trends rather than outpace them dramatically.
