A complete guide to property investment in Tynemouth.
Last updated: 10 January 2026
Tynemouth offers a balanced environment for property investors, with a mix of affordability and strong liquidity. The average price-to-income ratio of 4.5 suggests that homes are relatively accessible compared to many other parts of the country, while the rent-to-income ratio of 20.3% reflects a rental market that is not overly stretched for tenants. The area’s median price per square foot stands at £230 per sq ft, and there is a relatively brisk turnover with properties spending just 39 days on the market. Annual sales volume is healthy at 876, and the median discount to asking price is currently £0 (the typical achieved discount), indicating sellers are generally achieving their targets.
Rental yields are appealing, with an average of 5.9% and a top district yield of 6.6%. Capital growth over the past three years has been robust at 15.4%, though the most recent one-year figure of -1.1% shows a change in momentum.

The outlook for Tynemouth is steady, with property remaining accessible and rental yields staying attractive for investors. The area’s liquidity is strong, with homes selling quickly and sellers generally achieving their asking prices. Over the past three years, capital growth has been robust at 15.4%, with an annualised rate of 4.9%, though the most recent year’s change of -1.1% suggests a more subdued market in the short term.
Rental demand is likely to remain solid, given the balanced mix of owner-occupied and private rented housing and the area’s relatively affordable rents. Investors should expect a stable environment with moderate growth potential rather than rapid appreciation, making Tynemouth a sensible choice for those seeking income and liquidity rather than speculative gains.
