Regional Property Market Update Autumn 2020: West of England and South Wales

It is estimated that nearly two million people own buy-to-let property across the UK (Resolution Foundation 2019), with property being regarded as a ‘safe-haven’ asset. At 4.7% and 5.7% respectively, the gross yields on residential property across the South West and Wales are attractive.

Areas across Wales currently offer the most attractive returns, taking nine of the top 10 rankings. Blaenau Gwent is at the top offering a gross yield of 6.7%.

Average gross yields on residential property are attractive, with positive rental and house price growth

Strongest housing markets across the West of England and South Wales

Property prices in the South West were 4.3% higher year-on-year, and 2.8% higher across Wales   since the housing market reopened in June. Year-on-year prices have dipped in just four areas. Activity across the UK has been brisk; nationally the average time taken to sell a property fell to 53 days in August, down from 62 days in August 2019. Sensible pricing remains crucial, as correctly priced properties are nearly twice as likely to be sold ‘subject to contract’ within four months of listing than those that have had their asking price reduced. Homes in the South West are selling, on average, 10 days quicker than a year ago.
