A complete guide to property investment in Conwy.
Last updated: 18 September 2025
Conwy stands out for its blend of steady capital growth and healthy rental yields, with capital growth over the past year at 4.7% and average rental yields of 4.7%. The area’s property market is relatively affordable, reflected in a price-to-income ratio of 5.5, and homes are typically on the market for 96 days. There’s a notable skew toward an older population, with the area in the 93rd percentile for residents aged 60 and above, which shapes local demand and could limit rapid turnover. Owner-occupation is high, sitting in the 83rd percentile, while private renting is less dominant.
Despite this, liquidity is reasonable, with 231 properties changing hands each year and a median discount of £8,500 (the typical achieved discount) suggesting buyers have room to negotiate. The market is not driven by students or young professionals, but rather by established households and retirees, which brings stability but may mean slower shifts in rental demand.

Over the next year, Conwy’s property market is likely to remain stable, supported by steady annualised growth over three years of 4.3% and a solid base of owner-occupiers. The market’s affordability, with a price-to-income ratio of 5.5 and median asking sale price for a 3-bedroom house at £299,950, should continue to attract buyers seeking value outside major urban centres.
Rental demand may not surge due to the older demographic and moderate levels of private renting, but rental yields of 4.7% suggest ongoing appeal for landlords focused on income. Investors should expect gradual, reliable returns rather than dramatic spikes in prices or rents. Overall, Conwy offers a dependable environment for those who value stability and steady growth over rapid gains.
