Warwickshire Prime Homes Market Report - Q1 2024
Main Market
The UK housing market in 2023 has been a fortress of resilience. Despite the odds, the average property price in October was robust at just under £290,000, down by just 1.2% year-on-year.
And as the year came to a close, we saw signs of stability, with prices holding steady and mortgage approvals on the rise. It's a market that's not just surviving; it's holding its ground firmly.
Prime Market Performance
In the prime markets across England and Wales, we witnessed an interesting trend. While the average price of a prime property slightly declined by 1%, to just over 1 million, 260 thousand pounds, regions like the North West, Yorkshire & The Humber, and the West Midlands including Warwickshire, saw positive price growth. It shows a diversified prime market, where some areas are advancing while others recalibrate."
Overall Consumer Confidence and Predictions
Consumer confidence, which is often the heartbeat of the market, has shown an uptick. The property market is regaining its rhythm thanks to falling inflation and brighter prospects ahead. And with swap rates decreasing, we're seeing more attractive mortgage deals, which could be a prelude to a more buoyant 2024.
