House Prices in the East Midlands

We take a closer look at the East Midlands region as part of our series of property spotlights, focusing on average house prices, the total number of sales and the size of the market around the country.

The figures are based on the latest data from the Land Registry House Price Index which helps to form a picture of the region’s housing markets. While there is no single measure which provides a complete picture of the market, below are 20 areas with statistics on the total value of all property transactions in the past year. This has been calculated by multiplying the average value of homes by the number of sales.
