Luton Property Prices Set To Increase 4 Times The Rate Of London

Published: 13th December 2016

Property prices in the South East of England have been increasing at a faster rate than the capital. This is due to a higher percentage of the population demanding to live in commuter towns such as Luton. The International Business Times rated Luton in the top 5 of the UKs highest growth areas, with Luton seeing a rent increase of 4 times the rate of London.

People are being attracted towards commuter belts as a result of the rental increase in the city. In 2015 Luton’s house prices have increased by 18.5%, with a price increase of £40,000 on a semi-detached house. This means Luton has seen an average rent increase of £722, which is a staggering 10.4% from the previous year.

House prices are predicted to increase by 41%, resulting in many buy-to-let investors starting to look in to the area. Therefore, Luton is set to become a new commuter belt hotspot, offering some exceptional buy-to-let opportunities.
