Last updated: 18 September 2025

Investment summary

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 32 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.

Should you invest in Tynemouth?

Opportunities

  • Investors can benefit from strong rental yields of 5.9%, with certain districts offering up to 6.6%.
  • The area’s brisk average days on market (32 days) and a median discount of £0 (the typical achieved discount) suggest high liquidity and sellers achieving their asking prices.
  • The relatively low price-to-income ratio of 4.5 indicates that property remains accessible for buyers, which can help support steady demand.

Risks

  • The most recent 1-year capital growth of -1.1% signals a period of slower price movement, which may limit short-term capital gains.
  • The area has a high proportion of single occupier households (in the 92nd percentile), which could lead to higher tenant turnover or void periods for some property types.
  • Social rented housing is in the 72nd percentile, so some neighbourhoods may have less appeal to private sector tenants or buyers.

Outlook

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.
