Regional trends in house price growth
Prices are being pushed upwards by particularly strong growth in Wales and the North West of England. They’re seeing price growth at 8.4% and 7.3% respectively – the highest in these regions for 16 years.
At a city level, Rochdale, Bolton and Hastings are all registering growth of more than 9%, while Liverpool (8.9%) Belfast (7.7%) & Manchester (7.4%), are recording the highest levels of house price growth among the UK’s larger cities.
At the other end of the scale, prices continue to fall in Aberdeen (-2.3%) where the market is closely aligned with the oil industry. Average values are also falling on an annual basis in several local authorities in central London.
