What locations to target?

Research from Lloyds Bank reinforces the idea that close proximity to a supermarket can add a premium to property prices. The average added is an impressive £21,500. Areas with a Waitrose, Marks and Spencer, or Sainsbury’s tend to have the highest premiums. Locations with budget supermarkets such as Aldi, Lidl and Asda have seen some very big rises in values though. This showcases how shopper behaviour is changing.

Aldi has had really strong performance over the last five years. Average house prices in areas with one of their stores have grown by 20% in that period. This translates to a rise from £178,809 to £213,765. The growth is higher than areas with any other supermarkets. For example those with a Waitrose, M&S or Sainsbury’s grew 12%, Tesco 11%, and Morrisons 14%.

Chiswick

One area with an incredible premium on house prices due to the local supermarkets is Chiswick in the London Borough of Hounslow. The average price for a home in the area is an impressive £1,021,701. This means the town has a 94% premium over the whole Borough. Surprisingly it has a Waitrose, M&S, and Sainsbury’s.
