Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price of £541,000 places KT19 among the most expensive nationally. However, growth has lagged significantly: the 10-year annualised rise of 2.5% is well below the national trend. Transaction activity fell to 394 sales in the latest year, down from an average of 476 annually over the past decade.
Rent & Yield Trends
Monthly rents of £1,733 are among the highest nationally. Rental growth has been exceptionally weak at 2.5% annually over ten years—the slowest in the country. Yields have moved in a favourable direction, rising to 4.8% in the latest year from a 10-year average of 4.0%, reflecting the tighter rental market.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income of £50,533 is among the highest nationally. Purchase affordability has deteriorated slightly: the price-to-income ratio has risen from 10.2x in 2016 to 10.7x today. Rental affordability, by contrast, has improved notably—the rent-to-income ratio has fallen from 35.8% to 33.6% over the same period.
Resident Demographic Profile
The population skews notably towards families: those aged 35–49 represent 23.3% (well above the 18.7% national average), and under-15s account for 21% compared to 17.5% nationally. The workforce is heavily weighted towards professional and managerial roles, with professionals at 25.8% and managers at 16.3%—both substantially above national norms. Owner-occupation dominates tenure, with 36.3% holding mortgages (9.3 percentage points above the national average) and just 11.4% in social housing.
