Why Choose Nottingham
Nottingham
Market Summary
Nottingham Property Market Trends and Resilience
The Nottingham property market has demonstrated exceptional strength, achieving 32.4% price growth over the last five years, one of the highest rates among all major UK cities. This resilience is supported by strong affordability (Nottingham has a low price-to-earnings ratio of 6.3x) and continuous demand from both residents and investors. Forecasts indicate that the East Midlands, led by Nottingham, will continue to see steady price rises of 4%-5% in 2025, guaranteeing reliable performance for buy-to-let investors in the city.
Yields
Nottingham Buy-to-Let Rental Yields and Income
Nottingham consistently ranks for its high-yield potential. The average rental yield sits at a competitive 6.6%, with specialised strategies (like HMOs) in student-heavy postcodes (NG1, NG7) achieving returns up to 12%. Demand is intense, driven by a large student population (from the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University) and a 14% expansion of the local professional workforce over the past five years. Rental growth is also considerable, at **+7.4% annually**, ensuring strong cash flow for buy-to-let investors.
