Over the next year, Leominster is likely to see steady but unspectacular returns for investors. The capital growth rate of 1.3% over the past year suggests a market that is stable rather than surging. Affordability remains a positive, with the price-to-income ratio of 4.4 supporting continued local demand.
Rental yields are unlikely to excite, but investors who prioritise stability over high returns may find the area appealing. Liquidity, as indicated by the median days on market of 62 days, should remain reasonable. The market outlook is one of gentle growth and limited volatility, suiting those with a long-term perspective.
