If you own or rent property in Attleborough, tracking price trends matters. One useful indicator is the average price paid over the last 12 months, updated monthly. On its own it’s just a number, but over time it reveals direction, momentum, and what the local market may mean for your next property decision.

As a new year begins, many Attleborough homeowners and buyers are asking the same question: what will happen to house prices in 2026, and when is the right time to move? This article looks beyond forecasts and headlines to examine the real drivers of the local market, focusing on supply, demand, and affordability to understand what may lie ahead.

This data shows a clear north–south split in UK housing supply. Homes for sale are rising across London and the South, while much of the North is seeing stock fall. The contrast raises questions about affordability, confidence, and whether higher supply in the South could limit house price growth into 2026.
