Homes in NG8 sell for a median of £236,400 across 718 sales over two years (HM Land Registry), which is +18% against the Nottingham median of £200,000. Set against the local average rent of £1,011 a month (ONS), that implies a 5.1% gross yield here versus 6.1% for Nottingham as a whole.
Rents are published per district, not per postcode, so the yield above applies the Nottingham average rent to NG8 prices. It's the right way to compare postcodes on entry price, but rents do vary street by street, and gross yield ignores costs, voids and mortgage interest.
NG8 averages tell you where to look, not whether one particular flat stacks up. Paste a listing and gemhome runs the actual numbers: yield, cash flow, the lender stress test, EPC work and what the public records say about that specific address.
