The latest version of the UK House Price Index (UK HPI) has been published, which shows house price changes for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland in the month of July.

Despite the many different apps and websites that now exist to help homebuyers find their perfect property, many still find that the more ‘traditional’ methods are the best, according to new research from Which?

According to recent research, over 70% of prospective homeowners in Britain would prefer to buy a property in need of work rather than a home that is already in move-in condition.

The average Scottish house price reached £143,282 in June this year, which is 4.6% higher than the same month the previous year and 2.7% higher than May 2016, according to the latest UK House Price Index (UK HPI).

The latest House Price Index from Halifax has revealed a 1.6% increase in house prices in the three months to July, compared to the previous three months. This exceeds the 1.1% increase seen in June, and is similar to the rates recorded in April and May (both 1.5%).
