Property investment stats for Wendover, South East

• The strong three-year capital growth of 11.9% suggests medium-term value for investors who are not focused on short-term gains.
• Families make up a high share of local households (in the 87th percentile nationally), supporting demand for three-bedroom houses, where the current median asking sale price is £595,000 and median asking rent is £1,800.
• The top-performing postcode district offers a higher rental yield of 4.2%, which may appeal to investors seeking better income returns.

• The one-year capital growth of -0.2% signals that price momentum has slowed recently, so short-term appreciation is not guaranteed.
• The average rental yield of 3.3% is modest compared to other markets, which may not meet the targets of income-focused investors.
• The price-to-income ratio of 7.0 means affordability could be a concern for some buyers, potentially limiting upside in the near term.

Looking ahead, Wendover’s property market is likely to remain supported by its appeal to families and professionals, given the high share of degree-educated and managerial residents. Liquidity should stay reasonable, with homes spending a median of 53 days on the market and a typical discount to asking price of £5,000 (the typical achieved discount), which suggests sellers are willing to negotiate but not under heavy pressure.

Rental demand is expected to be steady, but yields are unlikely to rise sharply given the current average of 3.3%. Affordability will remain a watch point, with a price-to-income ratio of 7.0 and rent-to-income at 25.3%. Overall, investors can expect gradual, rather than dramatic, returns in the next year, with the market’s stability and family appeal providing some reassurance.
