The sun’s out, the market’s moving, and Tamworth is buzzing with activity. Whether you’re a homeowner thinking of selling, a buyer looking for your dream move, or a landlord eyeing up your next investment — summer is the perfect time to make it happen.
At Hunters Tamworth, led by experienced Branch Manager Graham Hill, we’re proud to offer honest, insightful guidance that helps our clients make confident property decisions. We’ve pulled together everything you need to know about the current market — what’s rising, where demand is strong, and how to stay ahead.
Why summer matters for the property market
Summer is traditionally one of the busiest times for property activity. The longer days, brighter gardens, and school holidays create a natural window of opportunity for many people to move.
In Tamworth, we’re seeing a surge in interest from buyers and renters who are seeking more space, better lifestyle options, or are relocating due to work and schooling. But with that interest comes competition — so knowing how the market is performing gives you a real advantage.
How Tamworth is performing in 2025
Tamworth continues to offer a brilliant blend of affordability, connectivity, and quality of life. It’s one of the West Midlands’ most accessible locations — and it’s drawing attention from a wide range of home movers.
As of early summer 2025:
- The average house price in Tamworth stands at around £229,000, according to Land Registry data — a 4.7% increase year on year
- Detached homes have seen the biggest growth, with an average price of £373,000
- Semi-detached homes are averaging £230,000, while terraced houses come in at £192,000
- Flats remain affordable at around £119,000 — popular with first-time buyers and investors alike
These figures show steady growth that continues to outperform many neighbouring towns — a great sign of market confidence.
What’s happening in the rental market?
Landlords will be pleased to hear that Tamworth’s rental market is just as lively. The area’s strong commuter links to Birmingham, Derby, and Lichfield, combined with good schools and amenities, make it a natural choice for long-term renters.
Here’s what the current rental landscape looks like:
- Average monthly rent in Tamworth is now £909
- One-bedroom properties average around £661 per month
- Two-bedroom homes typically fetch £814
- Three-bedroom houses are letting for around £988
- Four-bed homes can command upwards of £1,430 per month
Rental demand is highest for modern family homes near good schools, and well-presented properties don’t sit empty for long. If you’re a landlord looking to expand or remortgage, this is a great time to explore your options.
What’s hot: the most in-demand property types
So what are people really looking for this summer? Based on the enquiries coming into our Tamworth branch, there are a few clear favourites:
Family homes with gardens
Detached and semi-detached houses with off-road parking and decent gardens are flying off the market. Buyers are willing to stretch their budgets for properties with outdoor space and a little extra room indoors — especially if they’re within walking distance of schools.
Energy-efficient homes
Homes with strong EPC ratings are proving especially attractive, as more buyers prioritise low running costs. Double glazing, modern boilers, insulation and solar panels are features that now stand out in listings.
Renovation projects
For cash buyers and those moving from London or Birmingham, properties with potential are in demand. Many are looking for homes they can modernise or extend — especially in older, character-filled areas like Glascote and Fazeley.
Flats for first-time buyers
With flat prices still below £120,000 on average, first-time buyers are snapping up well-located apartments. Proximity to Tamworth train station and Ventura Park are strong selling points, especially for young professionals.
Where the demand is focused: Tamworth’s hot spots
We’re lucky in Tamworth to have such a varied property mix — from historic homes to new-build developments. Here are a few areas where we’re seeing the most movement right now:
Amington
A great choice for families, Amington offers plenty of modern developments as well as traditional homes. Its schools, green spaces and community feel make it a go-to for upsizing buyers and long-term tenants alike.
Wilnecote
With strong transport links via Wilnecote station and easy access to the A5 and M42, this area is ideal for commuters. There’s a good mix of housing stock here — including 3-bed semis and smaller terraces perfect for landlords.
Glascote
Popular with first-time buyers, Glascote offers affordability without compromising on convenience. The area has seen solid price growth over the past few years, making it a smart bet for capital appreciation.
Fazeley and Two Gates
Close to Ventura Park and Drayton Manor, these areas are ideal for investors. Family renters love the proximity to leisure facilities and good schools, and there’s a real village atmosphere that appeals to buyers of all ages.
A word for sellers
If you’re considering putting your home on the market this summer, you’re in a strong position — but only if you get your pricing and presentation right.
Buyers are confident, but they’re also cautious. They’ll move quickly for the right home at the right price — but overpriced or poorly presented homes will still sit on the market.
Here’s what we recommend:
- Make the most of your garden or outdoor space
- Freshen up your kerb appeal with clean paintwork and tidy pathways
- Keep rooms clutter-free and well-lit during viewings
- Work with an agent who knows the local market inside out
At Hunters Tamworth, we never inflate prices to win instructions. We give honest, data-driven advice — and we’ll help you get your home ready so it sells quickly and smoothly.
A word for landlords
Thinking of buying to let or expanding your portfolio? With mortgage rates settling and tenant demand high, there’s a great window of opportunity in Tamworth this summer.
- Young professionals are looking for well-maintained 1–2 bed properties near transport links
- Families want 3–4 bed homes near schools and green space
- Energy-efficient features and outdoor space are topping most renters’ wish lists
- Void periods are low, and average yields remain competitive
