Looking ahead, Teignmouth’s appeal may remain strongest among retirees and older couples, given the area’s demographic profile. The rental market is supported by a private rented housing percentile in the upper third, and yields in the best-performing areas reach 4.4%. However, with capital growth over one year at -2.4%, investors should temper expectations for short-term price rises.
Affordability metrics such as the price-to-income ratio of 5.7 and rent-to-income ratio of 21.8% suggest the market is accessible for both buyers and renters. Sales volumes at 263 and the median discount to asking price point to a market where negotiation is possible, but not overly distressed. Overall, the next year is likely to see steady but unspectacular performance unless there is a significant shift in local demand or supply.
