A complete guide to property investment in Ramsey.
Last updated: 18 September 2025
Ramsey offers a mixed investment profile, with a property market shaped by moderate affordability and a balance between renters and owner-occupiers. The price-to-income ratio of 5.6 suggests homes are accessible to local incomes, while the median price per square foot of £270 per sq ft keeps entry costs in check. The average rental yield of 4.1% is steady, though not outstanding, and the annualised growth over 3 years of 4.8% points to reasonable long-term appreciation. Recent performance has seen capital growth over 1 year of -2.3%, which tempers short-term expectations.
Liquidity is moderate, with annual sales at 116 and an average days on market of 89 days, suggesting properties do not linger excessively but are not flying off the shelves either.

The outlook for Ramsey remains stable, with a property market that is unlikely to see dramatic swings in the coming year. The steady rental yields of 4.1% and moderate entry prices should continue to attract buy-to-let investors, particularly given the area's relatively high proportion of private renters.
While short-term capital growth has been muted, the annualised growth over 3 years of 4.8% suggests that patient investors could still see reasonable returns. The market's liquidity, as reflected in annual sales of 116 and days on market of 89 days, is likely to persist, supporting a stable if unspectacular investment environment. Investors should watch for shifts in local demographics and demand, but for now, Ramsey looks like a market for steady hands rather than bold bets.
