Property investment in the UK remains one of the best ways to make strong returns. As 2022 gets well underway and the effects of the Covid pandemic begin to fade, the UK property market is proving to be one of the most popular for investors.
House price increases
Prices are continuing to increase as interest rates are still at a historically low level, even despite recent slight increases, and buyers and sellers are exchanging contracts at speed. Demand is high, driving prices even higher, with some experts predicting that home prices will continue to soar until 2025.
For those that can afford to invest in property, the gains can be substantial, and previously untapped regions like the North and the Midlands are outpacing London. This leaves plenty of opportunity for property investors to capitalise on the favourable market conditions.
Investment is not only limited to the sale and purchase of property, landlords are also cashing in on rising prices. High demand and low supply is driving up the average cost of rental with 2022 predicted to see a 2% rise and a total increase of 8.5% predicted over the next 5 years.
That increase is based on figures that reveal a national average but again, regional markets are set for even higher gains, the South-east and the Midlands are areas of primary focus with the West Midlands seeing the biggest predicted gains of 12%. Meaning, that those who wish to add buy-to-let properties to their investment will be able to maximise profits in the coming years.
Population and foreign investment
If all the increase in demand and attractive mortgage rates isn’t a compelling enough reason to invest, then potential buyers and landlords might want to consider the changing population. The number of people in the UK is increasing and generational changes to demographics indicate a high influx of renters as retirees cash out owned properties and convert to renting.
Over 50s will downsize while younger generations, motivated by the need for flexible living all point to a strong rental market that will provide ample opportunity for investors that wish to manage a property portfolio. This is all compounded by foreign investment as a healthy economy, regeneration of urban areas, and a growing technological market encourages overseas property managers to invest in the UK market.
Why you should invest in UK property
Property, generally speaking, provides excellent investment opportunities that yield strong returns, usually at impressive rates. Low investment amounts combined with guaranteed income makes property purchasing an attractive proposition, even for new or unseasoned investors.

- Set to increase for at least 5 years
- Experiencing high demand
- Offering favourable interest rates
- Yielding high returned
- Providing guaranteed income
- Attracting foreign investment
