Property investment stats for Liversedge, Yorkshire and The Humber

• Rental yields are competitive, with the average at 4.3% and the top postcode district offering 4.4%.
• The local market is liquid, as the average property spends only 29 days on the market and sales are typically achieved at or above asking prices (£0 (the typical achieved discount)).
• Entry prices remain accessible, with the median sale price for a 2-bedroom flat at £123,000 and a 3-bedroom house at £240,000.

• The proportion of degree-educated residents is in the 24th percentile, which may affect the long-term tenant profile and local wage growth.
• The area has a high social rented housing percentile (75th), which could limit private rental demand or influence neighbourhood composition.
• The professional and managerial population sits in the 32nd percentile, suggesting the local economy may not attract higher-income tenants as strongly as some other areas.

Liversedge’s fundamentals are steady, with quick sales and no median discount suggesting buyers are not hanging around. Average rental yields of 4.3% are respectable for the region, and capital growth over one and three years (5.4% and 18.6%) points to a market that has rewarded holders recently. The affordability ratios – both for buyers and renters – are not stretched, which should help support demand even if the wider economy stumbles.

While the area does not have a strong base of degree-educated or high-earning professionals, the mix of families and couples is balanced, and the local supply appears well-matched to current demand. The next 12 months are likely to see Liversedge continue on a stable path, with moderate price and rent growth, and little sign of overheating or sudden shifts in sentiment.
