Property investment stats for Hampton, Middlesex

A complete guide to property investment in Hampton.

Last updated: 18 September 2025

Investment summary

Hampton sits in a leafy corner of South West London, balancing suburban calm with good access to the city. The area attracts families, who make up a notably high share of households in the 78th percentile for Britain, and has a strong base of degree-educated residents and professionals, both in the 90th percentile. Property prices reflect this desirability, with the median price per square foot at £645 per sq ft and a price-to-income ratio of 8.3, which is typical for London but still a stretch for many buyers. Rental yields stand at 4.5%, with the top postcode district reaching 5.6%, offering reasonable returns for the area.

Liquidity is steady, with 317 transactions per year and homes typically spending 84 days on the market. The gap between achieved and asking prices is £10,000 (the typical achieved discount), suggesting some room for negotiation but not drastic undercutting.

Should you invest in Hampton?

Opportunities

  • The strong presence of professionals and degree-educated residents in the 90th percentile supports stable demand for quality homes.
  • Families dominate the area, so larger properties like 3-bedroom houses (with a current median asking sale price of £699,950) can attract reliable long-term tenants.
  • The top postcode district offers a rental yield of 5.6%, which is attractive for investors seeking higher returns within London.

Risks

  • Capital growth over the past year has changed by -3.8%, so investors should be prepared for some short-term price fluctuation.
  • The price-to-income ratio of 8.3 means affordability is stretched, potentially limiting future price growth or reducing buyer demand.
  • The rent-to-income ratio at 29.8% could put pressure on affordability for tenants, especially if rents continue to rise.

Outlook

Looking ahead, Hampton’s fundamentals remain solid, with a high share of families and professionals underpinning demand. The annualised growth over three years stands at 1.1%, indicating steady, if unspectacular, capital appreciation. Rental demand should stay resilient given the area’s demographics and the current median asking rent for a 3-bedroom house at £2,500.

Liquidity is likely to remain healthy, with a typical time on market of 84 days and annual sales at 317. While affordability will continue to be a challenge, especially for first-time buyers, the area’s appeal to families and professionals suggests rental and sales markets will stay active. Investors should expect gradual, stable performance rather than rapid growth, which fits Hampton’s long-term profile.
