Should you invest in Brinsworth?

Opportunities

  • The combination of strong rental yields of 5.3% and robust three-year capital growth of 18.7% make Brinsworth appealing for both income-focused and growth-minded investors.
  • With a median sale price for a three-bedroom house of £167,475 and a median rent for the same size at £1,050, the local market offers a competitive entry point and a healthy rent-to-income ratio.
  • The top postcode district for rental yield, showing 5.6%, highlights pockets of especially strong rental performance.

Risks

  • The area has a degree-educated population in the 8th percentile and professionals and managers in the 17th percentile, which may limit future demand from higher-income tenants or buyers.
  • Private rented housing is in the 22nd percentile for the region, suggesting a smaller rental sector and potentially less liquidity for buy-to-let investors.
  • The unemployment rate is in the 33rd percentile, which is not especially high but worth monitoring for any signs of economic weakness.

Outlook

Looking ahead, Brinsworth appears well-placed to continue attracting buyers and renters, given its combination of affordability and recent capital growth. The annualised growth over three years of 5.9% suggests the area has not just spiked but shown steady improvement. Liquidity remains a strength, with properties averaging 16 days on the market, and the median achieved price matching asking prices shows sellers are not having to compromise.

While the professional and degree-educated populations are lower than national averages, the high proportion of owner-occupied and couples' households points to community stability. Investors should expect continued demand from families and couples, especially as affordability remains a draw. If broader economic conditions hold steady, Brinsworth should remain a reliable choice for investors seeking a mix of income and long-term growth.
