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.
