Hometrack Index for December 2020

"This month’s Cities Index shows a continuation of the strong end to 2019. City house price growth is at a two-year high, at 3.9%. Coupled with a bounce in demand, which at 26% far exceeds the traditional new year boost, we see green shoots of returning market optimism. At a regional level, affordability of local stock is driving growth forecasts for Northern and Midlands cities, while in the South, the picture is more subdued.

​"There is much focus on how much the demand for housing has ‘bounced’ in the early weeks of 2020. Looking at the 4 weeks to 20 January 2020, demand for housing across UK cities is, on average, 26% higher than the same period in 2018 and 2019. All cities, except for Belfast (flat), have recorded an increase in demand compared to the last 2 years. Sheffield, Leeds and Leicester have recorded the greatest increase in demand over the first 4 weeks of the year, with Southampton and Edinburgh having registered below average growth in demand."
