Councils ranked directly above and below North Norfolk within the East of England. The full UKPP Rental Yield Index ranks every English council.
It is a gross yield: rent over price, before any costs. It models no voids, management, maintenance, tax or finance, and forecasts nothing.
The average rented home and the average sold home are not the same property. The index divides an area’s average rent by its average sale price, so it shows how North Norfolk compares with other areas — not the return on any particular property.
The yield runs about two months behind rents, because Land Registry prices are published later than ONS rents. How the index is built →
