There are numerous house price indexes covering the property market in the UK. Here we provide a snapshot of the latest data for our region, the wider economy and take a look back at how prices have changed.
The key index to trust when it comes to house price data is the one produced by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), this is because this index is based on completed housing transactions. Many other indexes take their snapshots ahead of completion, typically this means the data is less accurate as some sales will fall through.
