Regional House Prices Outpace London, Says Latest Index

Landlords reviewing property values are seeing stronger house price growth in lower-cost regions of Britain, while London continues to lag behind.

According to the latest e.surv House Price Index, the average house price across Great Britain has reached £328,800. This represents an increase of 1.8% over the past year. The index also reports that prices rose by 0.1% during the most recent month and by 0.4% over a recent period.

For letting agents and inventory clerks, these trends highlight shifting market dynamics, with regional areas experiencing more robust growth compared to the capital. This may influence property valuations, rental yields, and investment decisions in different parts of the UK.
