Property investment stats for Quedgeley and Hardwicke, South West

• Investors can benefit from strong rental yields of 5.5%, with the top-performing district delivering 5.4%.
• The price-to-income ratio of 3.9 and rent-to-income ratio of 17.9% suggest that both buying and renting remain within reach for many local households.
• Fast-moving sales, with homes spending just 31 days before selling, point to a liquid market with little risk of properties languishing unsold.

• The most recent year saw capital values change by -0.4%, which may signal a pause or volatility in price growth.
• With a high proportion of families and couples, demand may be less resilient to demographic shifts or economic shocks that affect these groups.
• The relatively low proportion of social rented housing (in the 16th percentile) could limit options for investors interested in the affordable or supported rental sector.

Looking ahead, Quedgeley and Hardwicke seem set for continued steady performance. The mix of strong rental yields, high affordability, and quick sales should keep the area attractive to investors who value stability and liquidity. Family and couple households are likely to sustain demand, especially for three-bedroom houses, where asking prices and rents (£320,000 and £1,495) reflect the local appetite.

While short-term capital growth has plateaued, the three-year trend remains positive. Investors should expect moderate but reliable returns, with the area’s fundamentals supporting a mildly optimistic outlook over the next year.
