Property investment stats for Calverton, East Midlands

• The top postcode district offers rental yields of 5.2%, which is attractive for landlords looking for stable income.
• With a median sale price for a 3-bedroom house of £315,000 and a median rent for the same at £1,270, investors can target the family rental market where demand is underpinned by a high proportion of families and couples.
• The annual sales volume of 144 suggests there is enough liquidity for investors to enter or exit the market without undue delays.

• The relatively low proportion of private rented housing (in the 21st percentile) may mean limited tenant demand or slower rental market growth compared to more urban locations.
• With a high proportion of owner-occupiers and families, there is less churn in the market, which could reduce opportunities for rapid resale or short-term gains.
• The older population profile (in the 71st percentile for over-60s) might mean less long-term growth in tenant demand from younger renters.

Calverton is likely to remain a stable investment location for those seeking steady, long-term returns. The combination of solid recent capital growth (2.8%, 30.7%) and realistic pricing points to a market with little froth, but also little sign of overheating. Family buyers and owner-occupiers will continue to underpin demand, keeping price volatility low.

Rental investors should be realistic about growth prospects, given the small size of the local rental market and the older population profile. However, the affordability ratio of 5.3 and achievable yields mean there is still scope for reliable, if unspectacular, returns. Expect the next year to bring more of the same: a market that ticks along quietly, with few surprises but little drama.
