Property investment stats for Hungerford, South East

• Investors can benefit from the area’s relatively strong three-year capital growth of 6.2%, which may appeal to those seeking medium-term returns.
• The high proportion of private renters (in the 75th percentile) supports stable demand for rental properties, particularly in the most popular postcode district, where yields reach 3.5%.
• Median asking prices of £435,000 for three-bedroom houses and £199,950 for two-bedroom flats may offer entry points for different investment strategies.

• One-year capital growth has changed by -2.6%, which may signal short-term volatility or a cooling market.
• Properties spend an average of 63 days on the market, so quick resale may not be assured.
• The area has a relatively low proportion of families (in the 16th percentile), potentially limiting demand for larger family homes.

Looking ahead over the next 12 months, Hungerford’s property market is likely to remain stable, with the area’s demographic makeup (older residents and couples) helping to underpin consistent demand. The moderate price-to-income ratio of 5.8 should continue to support affordability, provided there are no significant shifts in local employment or lending conditions.

Rental yields in the leading postcode district are currently 3.5%, which, while not high, are supported by a robust private rented sector. Investors should expect steady but unspectacular performance, with capital values likely to follow the recent three-year trend of 2.0% annualised growth rather than any dramatic swings. Liquidity is unlikely to change much, so patience may be required on both entry and exit.
