Rent growth over the past decade has run at 3.5% annually, below the national pace. The flat yield currently stands at 4.4%, an improvement on the 10-year average of 3.9%, indicating strengthening returns for buy-to-let investors in recent times.
Income & Affordability Trends

The price-to-income ratio of 7.9x suggests that purchasing has become less affordable since 2016, when the ratio stood at 7.2x.
