It’s a fairly simplistic view of where to invest. You need to delve deeper into the metrics to observe the current situation. Money being pumped in some cultural entertainment does not merit snapping up houses. What’s the median income of that city? What’s the unemployment %? Is there a net outflow of residents from that city? (Sunderland being a prime example) and much more…. The main driving factor of the income to house price ratio is jobs opportunities. All the fintech, tech, biotech, consulting etc. billion dollar corporations are based in the south. They offer significantly better career opportunities and scaling. Of course in London you have foreign investors making it worse but this will not stop anytime soon. Whilst quick money can be made by yield, real money is made via capital appreciation. You can use a simple Internal Rate of Return (IRR) % to see that the south (not just London) trumps the north. Everyone is flocking up north, simply because the barrier to entry is lower.
Not intending to be super cheeky, and hope I did not miss something - but is this map available online with a legend for the colours and their number-of-houses-to-London-scale/rent-yield. Appreciate this is very valuable information - however it would be amazing to study it in slow-mo , if possible😆 Thank you for everything - been following for very long time.
Basically Lancashire is on the up. Wigan historically, like all of Greater Manchester was/is Lancashire. Derby & Derbyshire have a national park on its doorstep. Good choices for the video.
How coincidental, some doctor friends of mine were mentioning to me how Manchester University send a lot of their medical students to Preston, could be worth a look! Thanks a lot.
What do you think about the impression of some of these areas as ‘value traps,’ places where properties look undervalued partially because they are in sub-prime localities. I understand properties are a less efficient market as compared to stocks, I just get that feeling.
Main reason why people buy homes in London and south is its pension value. In places like London, if house prices becomes 2/3 times input value in by retirement times, they will simply sell it and move to cheaper places. This way they will have same amount of retirement like anyone in north living whole life there. Londoner while on other hand will have lived whole life with world, have fulfilled all career opportunities, ate best food from all over the world, made best friends from all over the world bla bla and will have generally happy life knowing he can retire elsewhere with money in pot basically hedging all inflation by money in home. Pensioner on other hand in north would need inflation busting rise in investment to feel same happiness about retirement.
