Rise in House Prices across the U.K - no sign of slowing down

Iain Mckenzie CEO of The Guild of property professionals commented on the rising housing market in The Guardian and The Telegraph this week:

A shortage of homes for sale in the UK is likely to keep pushing prices higher, predicts Iain McKenzie, CEO of The Guild of Property Professionals:
“The remorseless rise of house prices continued through August, with the value of the average home now nudging a quarter of a million pounds.
“Even the scaling back of the stamp duty holiday hasn’t put the dampers on the demand we are seeing for property across the country.
“First-time buyers with a deposit in the bank are itching to get their foot on the ladder and incentives such as the extended Help to Buy scheme and the 95% government guarantee mortgages are making it all the more appealing to buy now.
“The main obstacle to intended buyers is the lack of properties on the market, and that lack of supply is likely to keep prices moving upwards in the short term.”

Located in the popular Constable Close off London Rd, Attleborough, this 3-bedroom semi-detached home offers a lounge off the entrance hall, fitted kitchen/diner, refitted bathroom, garage, and west-facing garden backing onto a play park, the property is offered with no onward chain.

This snapshot explores the landscape of mortgaged homes in Attleborough today, including an overview of properties in the UK that are owned outright, with a mortgage or privately and socially rented.

Setting the asking price is a key decision when selling a home. Data from the past two years shows that, on average, UK homes sell for less than their original asking price—revealing a consistent trend where final sale prices often fall short of initial expectations.

If you're an Attleborough homeowner or landlord thinking of selling, you’ve likely wondered how long it might take to find a buyer. Sale times vary by location, property type, and price. I’ve analysed the latest data from 82 local sales agreed during March, April and May of this year to give you a clear breakdown by type and number of bedrooms.
