A Hotspot for Property Value Growth

The North West has enjoyed robust house price growth, often exceeding the UK average. Benefiting from ongoing regeneration and strong demand. Recent data shows that the region achieved a house price increase of 2.9% in 2024, compared to the national average of 1.5%​​.

For investors, this consistent growth signals strong capital appreciation potential, making the North West a reliable choice for those seeking high returns on investment.

High Rental Yields and Demand

Rental yields in the North West are among the highest in the UK. Cities like Liverpool boast yields of up to 10% in key postcodes, while Manchester averages 6%​​. These attractive returns are supported by growing student populations, thriving business hubs, and increasing housing demand from young professionals.

This combination of high yields and robust demand positions the region as a lucrative option for buy-to-let and other rental-focused investments.

Affordability and Accessibility

Compared to London and the South East, the North West offers significantly more affordable entry points for property investors. The average house price in the region stands at £218,012—well below the UK average of £292,059​. This affordability not only attracts investors but also supports strong rental demand from first-time buyers and renters priced out of other markets.

For international investors and high-net-worth individuals, this accessibility makes the North West a prime market to diversify portfolios without overextending capital.

Economic Resilience and Regeneration

The North West has experienced a wave of regeneration projects, transforming urban areas and boosting economic prospects. Key projects, such as Liverpool Waters, attract businesses, create jobs, and enhance local infrastructure​​.

This vibrant economic environment fosters long-term growth, ensuring the property market remains resilient and appealing to investors.

Future Growth Potential

Industry forecasts predict the North West will continue to outpace other regions in property value growth. Savills anticipates a cumulative increase of 29.4% over the next five years​. This trajectory underscores the region’s potential for sustained profitability, making it a strategic investment choice for those looking to secure future returns.
