Property investment stats for Nuneaton, West Midlands

• Investors can benefit from strong rental yields of 5.4%, with the top area achieving 5.6%.
• Homes are moving quickly, as shown by an average of 35 days on the market, which helps with liquidity.
• The median asking rent for a 3-bedroom house of £1,198 and median asking rent for a 2-bedroom flat of £795 reflect healthy rental values relative to purchase prices.

• Capital growth has been modest, with a 1-year growth of 1.5% and annualised 3-year growth of 2.1%, so investors seeking rapid appreciation may need patience.
• The discount to asking price sits at £2,000 (the typical achieved discount), suggesting buyers have some bargaining power but also that sellers may be optimistic.
• The proportion of degree-educated and professional residents is lower than average, which could limit the pace of future rental or price growth if higher-income demand does not rise.

The next year looks steady for Nuneaton’s property market. With annual sales of 1,173 and a median achieved minus asking price of £2,000 (the typical achieved discount), there is clear evidence of active negotiation but also a market that is not stalling. Rental demand should remain robust, given the area’s strong family presence and a rent-to-income ratio of 20.2% that sits at a sustainable level.

Given the capital growth of 1.5% over the past year, I would not expect fireworks, but the combination of yield, affordability, and liquidity makes this an area for steady, income-focused investors rather than speculators. The market’s resilience is underpinned by a broad owner-occupier base and a healthy private rental sector. If you value stability over short-term gains, Nuneaton continues to offer a reliable proposition.
