With plans announced to raise the council tax surcharge on higher-value homes, this snapshot looks at how many £2m-plus properties have actually sold across the UK this year. The data shows a highly concentrated market, dominated by London, and reveals just how small this sector is nationally despite the noise around a “mansion tax.”

Attleborough’s property market has a pulse, measured by asking prices per square foot and shaped by the homes currently for sale. This snapshot helps homeowners and landlords read the mood rather than pure value change.

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.

Despite the headlines, first-time buyers in Attleborough are not locked out of homeownership. When you look beyond prices and focus on monthly mortgage costs, affordability today is far better than many realise. The data challenges the doom narrative and shows that, while deposits are tough, buying a first home is still possible.
