Property investment stats for Sprotbrough, Yorkshire and The Humber

• The area’s top rental yield of 5.8% in DN5 offers attractive returns for buy-to-let investors compared to much of the region.
• A median price per square foot of £239 per sq ft and a median asking price for a 2-bedroom flat of £90,000 make entry costs relatively low for those seeking value.
• The strong presence of families and couples, along with a high owner-occupation rate, underpins a stable demand for homes, particularly larger houses.

• Properties are taking 110 days on average to sell, which could mean slower liquidity if you need to exit quickly.
• The capital growth over the past year of -0.1% shows little upward movement, so short-term price gains may be limited.
• With a median achieved minus asking price of £2,500 (the typical achieved discount), buyers may expect to negotiate on price, suggesting sellers are having to be flexible.

The outlook for Sprotbrough is calm, with no sign of rapid change in either direction. Moderate long-term growth is evidenced by a three-year capital growth of 8.3% and an annualised growth rate of 2.7%, but the past year’s performance has been flat. The market’s slow pace and the tendency for sales to complete below asking prices point to buyers having the upper hand for now.

Affordability remains a draw, especially for families and couples seeking space without stretching their finances. Rental investors can still find solid yields, but should not expect fast capital appreciation in the near term. Overall, Sprotbrough looks set to remain a stable, quietly performing market over the next twelve months.
