Next publication of UK HPI

The July 2025 UK HPI will be published at 9.30am on Wednesday 17 September 2025. See the calendar of release dates for more information.

In September 2024’s release, UK House Price Index (UK HPI) estimates were revised from January 2022 onwards by making use of price data processed outside the UK HPI’s normal 12-month revision period. In October 2024’s release, UK HPI returned to the usual 12-month revision period. Users should be aware that revisions may be larger than usual and should note the significantly greater uncertainty around new build prices.

Previously, UK HPI had a reference period of January 2015. In February 2025’s release, UK HPI’s reference period was updated to January 2023, so UK HPI indices now report January 2023 equals 100. Re-referencing ensures the UK HPI reflects the price of the “average” property currently being sold and shifts the entire price level series for each geography and breakdown by a constant percentage without affecting inflation rates. Read more in the Office for National Statistics’ Keeping average house prices up to date blog and in the 19 February 2025 UK HPI release.

On 20 August 2025, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) introduced an improvement to HPI’s imputation method for Great Britain, which reduces initial over-estimation of new build estimates in provisional estimates. Due to reducing the initial over-estimation of new build inflation, we have reported a larger downwards revision to recent months’ estimates this month, as expected. On average, the UK HPI annual inflation rate between June 2024 and May 2025 has been revised down by 0.5 percentage points. Since this methods improvement increases the accuracy of our initial estimates, we expect overall revisions between provisional (1st) and final revised (13th) UK HPI estimates to be smaller moving forwards. More detail about this methods improvement is available in section 4.9 of HM Land Registry’s About the UK House Price Index document.

ONS will continue to monitor revisions and identify potential further methods improvements in the future.

2. Economic statement

Average UK house price annual inflation was 3.7% (provisional estimate) in the 12 months to June 2025, up from the revised estimate of 2.7% in the 12 months to May 2025.

The average UK house price was £269,000 in June 2025 (provisional estimate), which is £9,000 higher than 12 months ago. Average house prices in the 12 months to June 2025 increased in England to £291,000 (3.3%), increased in Wales to £210,000 (2.6%) and increased in Scotland to £192,000 (5.9%). The average house price increased in the year to Q2 (Apr to Jun) 2025 to £185,000 in Northern Ireland (5.5%).

On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, average UK house prices increased by 1.4% between May 2025 and June 2025, compared with an increase of 0.4% in the same period 12 months ago. On a seasonally adjusted basis, average house prices in the UK increased by 0.9% between May 2025 and June 2025.

Of the English regions, annual house price inflation was highest in the North East, where prices increased by 7.8% in the 12 months to June 2025. London was the English region with the lowest annual inflation, where prices increased by 0.8% in the 12 months to June 2025.

The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors’ (RICS’) June 2025 UK Residential Market Survey reported that sales market activity appears to stabilise and that house prices still display a flat, marginally negative trend at the aggregate level.

HMRC’s UK Property Transactions Statistics showed that in June 2025, on a seasonally adjusted basis, the estimated number of transactions of residential properties with a value of £40,000 or greater was 94,000. This is 1.3% higher than 12 months ago (June 2024). Between May 2025 and June 2025, UK transactions increased by 13.4% on a seasonally adjusted basis. On a non-seasonal basis between May 2025 and June 2025, HMRC reported that transactions volumes increased by 20.9% in England, decreased by 11.2% in Scotland, increased by 10.5% in Wales and increased by 14.4% in Northern Ireland. The increase in UK transactions volumes in June 2025 (particularly in England and Northern Ireland) reflect volumes rising towards more typical levels following the low April 2025 transaction volumes coinciding with the 1 April 2025 Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) changes.

The Bank of England’s Money and Credit June 2025 release reported that mortgage approvals for house purchases, an indicator of future borrowing, increased by 900 to 64,200 in June.

The Bank of England’s Agents’ summary of business conditions - 2025 Q2 reported that although buyers are taking longer to make a decision to purchase, demand seems to be firming up and house prices are growing by mid-single digits in percentage terms. The exception is London and the south where market sentiment remains gloomy, demand is weak and there is some evidence of falling prices.

4. Sales volumes

ONS and HM Land Registry have been working collaboratively to improve transactions volumes available for use in UK HPI and reduce the size of revisions. In 2024, HM Land Registry successfully returned to processing over 40% of HM Revenue and Customs’ provisional sales estimate for UK HPI’s first estimate (the target specified in the UK HPI Quality and methodology). UK HPI sales volume estimates for older periods and new builds remain lower than historical averages, but continue to improve.

Users should be aware that revisions may be larger than historically and should note the greater uncertainty around new build prices.

4.1 Sales volumes

Number of sales volumes by country

Provisional UK HPI estimates for June 2025 are based on approximately 32,400 records for England, 7,600 for Scotland, and 1,900 for Wales. This represents 45% of HMRC’s provisional sales estimate for June 2025, as detailed in their Monthly property transactions completed in the UK with value of £40,000 or above estimates. Over time, more records will become available for recent periods, which will be used to revise UK HPI estimates and sales volumes, in line with the revision policy published by the ONS and HMLR.

Sales estimates from UK HPI differ from estimates from HMRC because of different data sources, revision period size and coverage. HMRC’s Quality report states there are likely to be inaccuracies in their data because of reporting or keying errors, such as misclassification between residential and non-residential transactions. However, HMRC take steps to reduce this measurement error. Another reason for differences could be that residential property transactions, where the buyer or seller is a corporate body, company or business, are excluded from UK HPI data, but included in HMRC data.

Further information on data sources, revision policy, methods and quality is available in HMLR’s UK HPI guidance.

9. About the UK House Price Index

The UK House Price Index (UK HPI) is calculated by the Office for National Statistics and Land & Property Services Northern Ireland. Find out about the methodology used to create the UK HPI.

Data for the UK House Price Index is provided by HM Land Registry, Registers of Scotland, The Land & Property Services/Northern Ireland Statistics & Research Agency and the Valuation Office Agency.

Find out more about the UK House Price Index.

A key determinant of house prices is the demographic characteristics of the area in which the property is located. The UK HPI uses the socio-demographic classification, known as Acorn, in the hedonic regression model to measure the affluence of the area.

Prior to 20 December 2023’s publication, property transactions in Great Britain were excluded from the regression model if their Acorn classification was missing. From 20 December 2023’s publication, these properties are included in the regression model from January 2023’s data onwards, but are given less weight in the calculations, as described above. This methodology improvement aligns how transactions with missing Acorn classification are used in the Great Britain model and Northern Ireland model, increasing coherence across the UK and improving the quality of UK HPI statistics.
