** LATEST PROPERTY NEWS ** Property Market is fragmented.
January 2012 - Regional housing markets paint a picture of sharp contrasts.
Data is from estate agency signs firm Agency Express highlights variations in the number of properties sold in 2011 across the UK. The picture was extremely localised, with different regions showing sharp contrasts, with five out of the twelve regions showing increases in the number of properties achieving ‘Sold’ status in 2011 compared with the previous year.
London topped the annual table for hot-spots, up 13.5% on 2010, followed by Wales, up 12%, the West Midlands 6.4%, East Anglia 3.2% and the East Midlands 1.6%.
When it comes to the not-spots, the North-East suffered a 14% drop in the number of properties ‘Sold’. Yorkshire was down 12.3%, central England 9.3%, Scotland 8%, the South-West 7.8%, the South-East 7% and the North-West 2.8% on 2010.
Wales had the greatest number of new ‘For Sale’ listings, up 7.1% on the year before, compared with the North-East which was down 24.8%, while the South-East was down 19.3%. Yorkshire new listings were down 12.8% and in the West Midlands down 6.2%.
Stephen Watson of Agency Express, said: “Last year was very challenging for the UK property market. However, several regions actually produced positive growth which is very promising.
“I believe we have another challenging year ahead as the factors impacting 2011 will still be in play throughout 2012.
“Our index does highlight, though, that if properties are realistically priced and the traditional stand-off between vendor and purchaser can be bridged, properties will sell"
Adams believe the market in the Cotswolds compares very favourably with London and is holding up well but please contact us for sensible and effective marketing advice from experienced and licenced members of the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA) and ARLA on 01242 603601.
