Property investment stats for Yatton, South West

• The average rental yield in Yatton is 4.1%, which may appeal to investors seeking steady returns, especially in a market dominated by owner-occupiers.
• The three-year capital growth figure of 4.8%, annualised at 1.6%, suggests moderate long-term price appreciation.
• The top postcode district in the area has a rental yield of 3.7%, which could offer a slightly better return for those willing to target specific locations.

• The one-year capital growth has changed by -6.1%, which is a reminder that short-term volatility is possible even in established markets.
• With the private rental sector in the 4th percentile, finding tenants may take longer or require more competitive pricing than in more renter-heavy locations.
• Properties are spending an average of 94 days on the market, so liquidity may be an issue for those needing a quick exit.

Yatton’s property market is likely to remain stable, given its high proportion of owner-occupiers and low unemployment rate in the 1st percentile nationally. The steady annual sales figure of 117 and the moderate median discount to asking prices of £9,950 (the typical achieved discount) suggest a market that is active but not overheated.

Rental yields should hold firm at 4.1%, though the small size of the private rental sector could limit growth opportunities for landlords. Affordability ratios are reasonable, which should help underpin demand among buyers. Over the next twelve months, I expect slow and steady progress in both prices and rents, with the market’s stability appealing most to investors who value predictability over rapid gains.
