House prices soar 7.5% in a year but it may all change soon

Date Published 10 November 2020

According to the "Estate Agent Today" periodical house prices by the end of October were running 7.5 per cent above their level a year ago - but the strong run is about to slow, warns the Halifax.

They rose 0.3 in October itself, and in the quarter from August to October, house prices were 4.0 per cent higher than the previous three months. This means the average UK house price is over a quarter of a million points at £250,547 for the first time in history, says the lender.

At Lewis Dean we have found that houses prices locally in the Upton and Lytchett Matravers area have risen over the last few months due to the high demand from buyers moving here from out of the area.
