Worsley’s combination of stability and moderate growth makes it a solid choice for investors who value predictability over rapid gains. With a three-year capital growth of 8.3%, the market has rewarded patient investors, and the current environment continues to support realistic pricing and sustained demand.
Rental demand is likely to remain steady, given the area’s professional tenant base and strong owner-occupier presence. However, the limited private rental sector could constrain opportunities for rapid portfolio expansion. Overall, the next twelve months appear positive for those seeking reliable returns and minimal surprises, with affordability and stable yields underpinning the investment case.
