+6.3% vs −1.0%
Northern Ireland versus London.
One UK housing market? Not quite.
Recent regional figures show a clear split: Northern England (+3.1%), Scotland (+2.6%) and Northern Ireland (+6.3%) are holding up more firmly, while London (−1.0%), the South East (−0.7%) and the South West (−0.3%) are softer.
The practical point for buyers? A dip in one area is not automatically a national trend. Before relying on a headline, look at evidence from the local market, including achieved sale prices, comparable homes, time on the market, price reductions, condition and demand for that specific location.
A national average cannot tell you whether one property is realistically priced. Local evidence can help you ask better questions and approach an offer with greater clarity.
