How much your house value is expected to rise in the next five years

At Partridge Homes Estate and Letting Agents, we always keep an eye on the latest trends in the property market to help our clients make informed decisions. Recently, an article from Savills, one of the leading property firms, caught our attention with its bold predictions for the UK housing market over the next five years.

According to their research, house prices across Britain are expected to rise by an average of 23.4% by 2029. That’s a £84,000 increase, bringing the average property value to £442,000 from the current £358,000. But what’s even more interesting to us is how regional markets are set to perform – especially here in the West Midlands.

West Midlands Leading the Way

The West Midlands is predicted to see one of the highest house price increases, with a strong 26.4% rise by 2029. This growth is a testament to the area’s increasing desirability and development potential, making it an exciting time to buy or sell property in the region. With house prices set to rise by an average of £14,500 next year alone, it’s clear that the West Midlands is positioning itself as a hotspot for property investment.

What Does This Mean for You?

If you own property in the West Midlands, this forecast suggests your property could see significant value growth over the next few years, particularly as confidence among buyers increases due to more affordable mortgage rates. Conversely, if you’re looking to buy, it’s an excellent time to consider entering the market before prices climb higher.

National Overview

Savills’ predictions show that regions across the UK are experiencing varying degrees of growth, with the North West (29.4%), North East (28.2%), and Yorkshire and the Humber (28.2%) also set to see strong growth in the coming years. However, the West Midlands is standing out as one of the most promising areas for future property value increases.

Looking Ahead

Despite some uncertainties around mortgage rates and property taxation, Savills’ forecast indicates that a steady improvement in affordability and buyer confidence will fuel moderate house price growth in the coming months and years. While there may be bumps along the way, the overall trend is one of steady improvement across much of the country, with the West Midlands positioned for particularly strong performance.
