Headline finding

Read the extremes with care

WC2B (LONDON, Camden) saw the largest 12-month rise: median sold price up +114.0% to £1,525,000, on 10 recorded sales, a small sample worth reading alongside the full table below. At the other end, M17 (MANCHESTER, Salford) fell -93.2% to £225,000.

A change in WHAT sold, such as more flats than houses in one window or one high-value transaction in a small outcode, can move a median as much as a genuine market shift. Sample sizes are shown for every row so you can judge confidence yourself; see the methodology page for the full limitation.

Questions, answered

Are UK house prices going up or down? Districts are split

Are UK house prices going up or down?

Sold prices in the typical postcode district stayed broadly flat (0%) in the 12 months to July 2026, with 1,013 of 2,233 districts rising and 1,093 falling. Half of districts moved between −3.9% and +3.4%. These are medians of sold prices, not an official index, and a past change is not a forecast.

What is the typical change in house prices across UK postcode districts?

The median district's sold price stayed broadly flat (0%). The middle half of districts moved between −3.9% and +3.4%, from 2,233 districts with at least 10 sales in each 12-month window.

Which UK area had the biggest house price rise?

Among districts with at least 100 sales in the latest 12 months, M6 (SALFORD) had the largest rise at +35.8%, a median of £220,000 from 421 sales (£162,000 from 781 a year earlier). S1 (Sheffield) fell most at −33.3%.

Why are some postcode districts left out?

75 of 2,308 districts had fewer than 10 sales in at least one of the two 12-month windows, so their change would rest on a handful of sales. The 2,233 that remain are ranked on their median sold price in each window.
