Looking ahead, Brough’s fundamentals suggest a stable environment for property investors. The area’s affordability, with a price-to-income ratio of 3.7, and strong owner-occupier base should help underpin values even if the market faces headwinds. Liquidity remains healthy, with homes selling in 37 days, and the steady presence of families and professionals bodes well for ongoing demand.
Rental yields are likely to remain competitive, given the average yield of 4.7% and strong demand for family homes. While short-term capital growth has been subdued, the longer-term trajectory — annualised growth over three years at 2.9% — suggests resilience. Investors should expect a market that favours stability and steady income rather than rapid gains.
