Property is a better investment than gold

Property is a better investment than gold

Team GB brought home the medals at Tokyo 2020, but property, not gold, has proved the best investment proposition in recent years.

The average price of residential property has increased by 46% over the last 10 years, over double that of gold.

Over the same period, the FTSE 100 has risen just 18%, as it remains below its pre-pandemic high, despite a positive economic recovery.

Property is a great investment

With this in mind, and the demand for rental properties increasing, a buy-to-let property can be an attractive investment.

At present, there is little sign of a slowdown in property market conditions. Mortgage approvals in June were over 20% higher than the long-term average (Bank of England) and demand in the market remains high. Source: Dataloft, Nationwide, LBMA, FT
