The Rightmove House Price Index was released this morning, giving a national picture of house prices

Hottest ever competition to buy a home and highest ever prices with the national average price of property coming to market hits a new all-time high after rising by 0.3% (+£1,091) this month, to £338,462

This new record high is only £15 higher than the previous record set in July, a sign that prices are now stabilising
Hottest ever competition to buy, with buyer demand per property for sale more than double pre-pandemic levels
The rise of the ‘power buyer’ continues – those who have already sold their own home, have cash in the bank, or are first time buyers with a mortgage agreed, are in a more powerful position and are out-muscling those who still need to sell their current home
Early signs of a better-balanced autumn market with more homes coming up for sale to help with buyer choice, with the number of new listings in the first two weeks of September 14% higher than the last two weeks of August.

Private renting has grown across every UK region over the last 40 years, but the scale and pace are often misunderstood. This graphic shows how uneven that growth has been, shaped largely by the decline in social housing. Understanding this shift helps explain today’s housing balance and the choices ahead.

This map reveals how homes in Attleborough are owned, from mortgage-free households to rented areas. These patterns matter because ownership shapes how and why people move, whether driven by lifestyle choices, long-term roots, or changing life stages, offering valuable insight into the local property landscape.

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.

This map highlights parts of Attleborough where many homes have spare bedrooms sitting unused. Extra space brings comfort and flexibility, but it also carries costs and questions about whether a home still fits its owner’s stage of life. Understanding where space is underused helps spark thoughtful conversations about future housing choices.
