Most active housing markets across the East Midlands

At £208,662 the average price of a property in the East Midlands is more expensive than a year ago and activity across the market is robust. On average 3.7% of private properties are sold each year, with turnover in eleven areas currently 4% or above. Over 11,400 new homes were registered for sale during 2020, and nationally registrations have been on an upward trend since September.

First-time buyers were particularly affected by the closed housing market and the stricter mortgage lending that followed. However, buyer numbers have recovered steadily, with transactions just 2% lower year on year during the final six months of 2020 (UK Finance). The number of High Loan-to-Value (LTV) mortgage products has also increased, Moneyfacts reporting there were 169 products available at 90% LTV in January, over double the number available back in July. Lending rates remain low, the average mortgage rate the lowest in history.

Victoria Copp, Sales Director of Chelton Brown Lettings & Sales, comments on the Northampton region:

"The Northampton property market has continued to grow despite the past year's events. Chelton Brown have noticed an incredible level of general capital growth and this stems from demand.

 

"Demand has increased week by week in 2021 and this interest is coming not just from investors, but first time buyers and general home movers alike. We feel that with all of the restrictions in 2020 and having more time at home, spending time with family and possibly working from home in the long term, moving is on the top of the priority list for many this year.

 

"We have found in recent weeks that as soon as a property is listed within a good school catchment area or a desirable village, for example, we are inundated with interest, quite often achieving asking price (or over) within a week."
