Looking ahead, Silsden's property market appears stable, with moderate long-term growth evidenced by the annualised three-year increase of 4.8%. While the recent one-year change in capital values of -4.6% suggests some short-term caution, the overall trajectory over several years remains positive. Investors can expect a balanced market, where negotiation is possible and buyers are not under excessive pressure to act quickly, given the typical 80 days properties spend on the market.
Rental yields are steady, if not spectacular, at 3.4%, with some districts offering a bit more for those willing to seek them out. Affordability remains reasonable, with the median price per square foot at £259 per sq ft and a typical three-bedroom house asking £270,000 for sale or £1,325 to rent. Overall, Silsden is likely to appeal to investors with a long-term outlook who value stability and the potential for gradual appreciation.
