Reino Unido Índice De Preços House (Anual)

The Halifax House Price Index in the UK rose 2.2% year-on-year in August 2025, easing from 2.5% in July but above forecasts of a 2% gain. This marked the slowest annual increase since June 2024. On a monthly basis, prices advanced 0.3%, beating expectations of a 0.1% rise, after a 0.4% gain in July. The average property value climbed to £299,331, a new record high. Amanda Bryden, Head of Mortgages at Halifax, said the market has shown steady growth in 2025, supported by easing mortgage rates, strong wage growth, and improving affordability, with many fixed-rate deals now below 4%. Affordability for first-time buyers has also improved, with average values down 0.6% since May. Regionally, Northern Ireland led with an 8.1% annual increase, followed by Scotland (+4.9%), while the South West posted a 0.8% decline, the first annual drop among UK regions in over a year. London saw modest growth of 0.8%, remaining the most expensive region with an average price of £541,615.
