Property investment stats for Barnham (Arun), South East

• Rental yields are solid, with an average of 5.0%, and the top-performing postcode district offers yields of 5.0%.
• Properties are typically selling with a median discount of £5,750 (the typical achieved discount), suggesting room for negotiation.
• The area’s high proportion of couples and families (81st and 58th percentiles, respectively) supports demand for larger homes.

• Capital growth over the past year has changed by -1.4%, which could signal a period of slower price movement.
• The market is not especially fast-moving, with properties spending an average of 85 days on the market.
• The area has a relatively low proportion of private rented homes (29th percentile), which may limit tenant demand in some segments.

Looking ahead, the fundamentals in Barnham suggest stability rather than rapid growth. The annualised growth over three years is 1.9%, and the three-year capital growth stands at 5.7%, pointing to steady but unspectacular performance. The high owner-occupation rate and strong presence of families and couples should help underpin prices, even if the pace of transactions remains measured.

Rental demand is likely to remain healthy, given the current average yields and the area’s demographic profile. Investors should expect modest capital appreciation and a market that rewards patience more than speculation.
