Economic statement

Total transaction volumes and new build volumes available to calculate UK HPI estimates have increased recently. HM Land Registry has processed over 40% of HM Revenue & Customs’ provisional sales estimate for UK HPI’s first estimate in recent months, though transaction volumes for older periods and new build volumes remain lower than historical averages. Users should be aware that revisions may be larger than historically and should note the greater uncertainty around new build prices. Further information is available in HM Land Registry’s UK House Price Index summary.

FPTV  (EP 243) THE ASKING PRICE MYTH: Buyers Always Need a Discount. False!

Do you believe that buyers never pay the asking price? Many sellers feel that way, but it’s not really true.

In today’s Fife property market, the Bank of Mum and Dad remains a powerful force — and it’s only grown more influential. For many first-time buyers in Fife, parental help is not just a boost, it’s often the key to the front door.
