WHY INVEST IN TINBRIDGE WELLS?

GROWTH

Royal Tunbridge Wells is home to just over 115,000 people according to the Office for National Statistics, and competition for the best homes is always fierce.

This is a place where the quality of a property is the priority. There is not an overall shortage of homes, but there is a lack of available high end accommodation. That makes luxury developments with good links to in demand parts of town a great investment for any buyer.

Data from the Land Registry, reported by Kent Live in January 2025, shows the effects of that competition:
