Should you invest in Taverham and Drayton?

Opportunities

  • Investors can benefit from solid rental yields, with the average at 3.9% and the top postcode district offering yields up to 5.3%.
  • The 3-year capital growth of 9.5% and annualised growth of 3.1% suggest a stable upward trend over the medium term.
  • The high proportion of couples and families, combined with a low unemployment rate in the 7th percentile, supports demand for quality family homes.

Risks

  • The 1-year capital growth has changed by -0.6%, signalling some short-term uncertainty in value appreciation.
  • With a population aged 60+ in the 76th percentile, future demand may shift as demographics evolve.
  • The private rented sector is in the 32nd percentile, which may limit rental demand compared to more urban or student-focused areas.

Outlook

The outlook for Taverham and Drayton remains cautiously positive. The area’s fundamentals — such as a strong owner-occupier base and steady demand from couples and families — provide a degree of resilience. The current median asking sale price for a 3-bedroom house is £325,000, while the median asking rent is £1,222, supporting steady rental returns.

While capital growth over the past year has changed by -0.6%, the 3-year growth and annualised figures point to ongoing stability. Investors should keep an eye on demographic shifts, but for now, Taverham and Drayton offer a balanced blend of affordability and dependable returns.
