The Land Registry has published the UK House Price Index for January 2025 (UK HPI).

The January data shows that, on average, house prices have risen by 0.2% since December 2024. There has been an annual price rise of 4.9%, making the average property in the UK valued at £269,000.

In England, the January data indicates that average house prices rose by 0.2% since December 2024. The annual price rise of 4.8% takes the average property value to £291,000.

The regional data for England reveals that London experienced the most significant monthly increase with a movement of 2.3%. Conversely, Yorkshire and the Humber saw the greatest monthly price fall, with a decrease of -0.6%. The North East experienced the greatest annual price rise, up by 9.1%, while London saw the lowest annual price growth, with a rise of 2.3%.

These figures highlight the dynamic nature of the housing market, with regional variations playing a significant role in overall trends. As we move forward, it will be interesting to see how these patterns evolve and what factors will influence future changes in property values.
