Egremont’s property market looks stable for the next year, with recent capital growth of 3.8% providing a boost to investor confidence. The low price-to-income ratio of 2.6 and brisk sales suggest continued affordability and liquidity, which should help underpin demand.
However, long-term growth has been modest, with the three-year annualised rate at 0.3%. Investors should keep an eye on the area’s older population and high level of social renting, as these factors may shape future demand and supply. For those seeking value and steady returns rather than explosive growth, Egremont offers a sensible choice.
