The map

Read the market by locality

Choose what to measure. Each circle is a locality, sized by its figure - hover or tap one to find it in the ranking, and follow any town through to its guide.

Final deeds of sale: the point at which a property legally changes hands. This is the truest measure of where the market is actually completing, rather than where it is being marketed.

Circles are sized by area, so a circle four times the size represents four times the figure. 11 localities have a month the publisher did not report; their rows say so.

What these figures cannot tell you

  • There is no locality-level price in any of these datasets, so no average or median price per town can be shown, and none should be inferred from transaction counts.
  • There is no locality-level rent either. The rental share shows where contracts are concentrated, not what they cost, so a rental yield cannot be calculated from it.
  • A month a publisher did not report stays blank rather than being counted as zero. Where that affects a locality's total, its row says so.
  • Approved dwellings are planning permits. They are not construction starts, completions, or homes on the market.
  • These are market-wide figures. They describe the market as a whole and are not a valuation of any individual property - for that, speak to an agency.
