Property investment stats for Redhill (Reigate and Banstead), South East

• The average rental yield of 6.4% is strong for the region, with the top postcode district offering a yield of 6.0%, making buy-to-let particularly appealing.
• The median price per square foot of £459 per sq ft and the price-to-income ratio of 5.4 keep entry costs and affordability in check compared to some neighbouring areas.
• With families in the 77th percentile and professionals well-represented, demand for both family homes and high-quality flats is likely to remain robust.

• Capital growth over the past year has changed by -1.2%, suggesting that short-term price gains are not guaranteed.
• Properties are taking an average of 77 days to sell, which could point to a slightly slower market and potential liquidity concerns if conditions shift.
• Investors should watch for the median discount to asking price of £5,000 (the typical achieved discount), as it may signal room for negotiation but also hints at some buyer caution.

Looking ahead, Redhill’s appeal to families and professionals should help underpin steady demand for both sales and rentals. The combination of a strong rental yield (6.4%) and a robust private rented sector suggests that landlords can expect continued interest, especially as affordability pressures elsewhere in the South East persist.

While the most recent capital growth figure (-1.2%) is muted, the three-year growth performance (5.9%) and annualised rate (1.9%) point to a market that favours steady, long-term investors over short-term speculators. Liquidity is reasonable, with annual sales at 387 and a typical time on market of 77 days. All in all, Redhill offers a reassuring mix of yield, demand and stability for investors willing to take a measured approach.
