Property investment stats for Maryport, North West

• The low price-to-income ratio of 3.1 makes Maryport relatively affordable for buyers compared to many other areas.
• The top postcode district offers rental yields of 4.5%, which could appeal to investors seeking income.
• The median achieved sale price is £3,250 (the typical achieved discount) below asking, suggesting buyers may have room to negotiate.

• Capital growth over the past year has changed by -8.4%, which could signal short-term volatility.
• The proportion of private rented housing is in the 13th percentile, so the rental market may be less liquid than in other areas.
• The population is older than average (60+ group in the 79th percentile), which could affect long-term demand dynamics.

Looking ahead, Maryport’s affordability and recent three-year growth of 31.1% may continue to attract buyers with an eye for value. The typical time to sell at 44 days and the annual sales volume of 113 indicate that, while not the busiest market, there is steady activity.

Rental yields in the top performing postcode district are at 4.5%, but investors should be aware of the relatively small private rental sector. Given the recent change in prices over the past year (-8.4%), I’d approach with a mix of caution and curiosity. The next twelve months will likely test the resilience of Maryport’s market, especially as demographic trends play out and affordability remains a key strength.
