Incomes in Bookham are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Bookham provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. Medium density in Bookham necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. Lower than average industry presence in Bookham we believe will be less of a negative impact than it has in the past. Post-COVID and the growth in working from home has lessened the demand for local employment options. This may make Bookham a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
