Let to Hounslow Council – Area Guide

The London Borough of Hounslow has undergone a great deal of growth and development over the past decade and has consequently piqued the interest of many property investors.

The explosive population growth that has occurred here has seen property prices rise and this has also compounded pressure on the local housing stock. This increase in demand has prompted improvements to local amenities and infrastructure and has also presented landlords wanting to let privately, or let to Hounslow council, with plenty of opportunities.

Why invest in Hounslow?
Hounslow has experienced the fifth highest rate of population growth of any Greater London borough and this rate is expected to continue to rise.

The local population grew by 19.6 per cent from 2001 to 2013, and the population is projected to reach 323,000 by 2030. In order to keep pace with this exponential growth, the local council is looking to deliver more than 12,330 new homes between 2015 and 2030, with a target of creating a minimum of 822 new homes a year in place. As the demand is putting pressure on the supply, there are plenty of opportunities for landlords. Property prices are up 11.9 per cent year-upon-year according to the Land Registry, and the average price is now listed at £409,102. In order to maximise their return on investment, buy-to-let investors landlords should consider a property that is near to transport links or employment hubs. There are also properties that are near to new amenities as well: in November 2015, the local council approved plans submitted by Barratt for a mixed-use development that will deliver 527 new homes, along with 9,000 sq. m. of retail and restaurant space and a cinema. Potential further expansion at Heathrow Airport, which is a mere 15 minutes from Hounslow, also offers the potential for more new jobs. For those who want to commute into London for work, excellent transport links along with proximity to the A4 and M4 motorways make this easy.
