The New Era: Labour Government and the future of the UK housing market
UK house prices still unaffordable for many people, says Nationwide
House prices in the UK remain unaffordable for many households despite wages rising above inflation for the typical earner, Nationwide has said.
Britain’s largest building society said prices had risen slightly in June amid the impact of higher mortgage costs, with a 0.2% month-on-month increase. On an annual basis house price growth accelerated from 1.3% in May to 1.5% in June, leaving prices about 3% below the record high set in summer 2022. The average price of a UK home was £266,064 in June, Nationwide said.
