North Chingford’s property market is likely to remain steady over the next year, with rental yields and sales prices reflecting the area’s strong fundamentals. The annualised three-year growth rate of 1.9% shows gradual progress, and longer-term capital growth over three years has changed by 5.9%. Investors can expect ongoing demand from families and professionals, given the area’s demographic profile and the relatively short average time on market.
