2. Economic statement

England house prices grew by 2.7% in the year to June 2018, down from 3.2% in the year to May 2018. This is the lowest England annual growth rate since July 2013 when it was 2.5%. England house prices are growing slightly slower than the UK annual rate of 3.0% in the year to June 2018. West Midlands was the fastest growing region with an annual growth rate of 5.8%, up from 5.0% in the previous month. London was the slowest growing region, falling by 0.7% in the year to June 2018, down from negative 0.2% in the previous month.

On a seasonally adjusted basis, average house prices in England were unchanged (0.0%) between May 2018 and June 2018, compared with an increase of 0.4% during the same period a year earlier (May 2017 and June 2017).

The UK Property Transaction Statistics for June 2018 showed that on a non-seasonally adjusted basis, in Q2 2018, the number of transactions on residential properties with a value of £40,000 or greater in England was 243,110. This is down 4.5% compared to Q2 2017.

Across England, all houses showed an increase in average price in June 2018 when compared with the same month in the previous year. Semi-detached houses showed the biggest increase, rising by 4.2% in the year to June 2018 to £229,000. The average price of Flats and maisonettes showed a decrease of 0.4% in the year to June to £227,000. Weaker growth in England Flats and maisonettes was driven by negative growth in London for this property type. London accounts for around 30% of England Flats and maisonette transactions.

As with other indicators in the Housing Market, which typically fluctuate from month to month, it is important not to put too much weight on one month’s set of house price data.

Annual price change by local authority for England

Low numbers of sales transactions in some local authorities and London boroughs, such as City of London, can lead to volatility in the series. While we make efforts to account for this volatility, the change in price in these local levels can be influenced by the type and number of properties sold in any given period. Geographies with low number of sales transactions should be analysed in the context of their longer-term trends rather than focusing on monthly movements.

4. Sales volumes

The amount of time between the sale of a property and the registration of this information varies. It typically ranges between 2 weeks and 2 months but can be longer. Volume figures for the most recent 2 months are not yet at a reliable level for reporting, so they are not included in the report. Published transactions for recent months will increase as later registered transactions are incorporated into the index.

Sales volume data is also available by property status (new build and existing property) and funding status (cash and mortgage) in our downloadable data tables. Transactions involving the creation of a new register, such as new builds, are more complex and require more time to process. Read Revisions to the UK HPI data for more information.
