South Wales Echo
|May 22, 2025
THE average Welsh house price increased by 3.6% annually in March to £208,000.
-
But the percentage rise was the smallest of the four UK nations - with the average UK house price rising by 6.4% over the same period, according to official figures.
This took the average UK house price in March to £271,000, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said, and was an increase on the previous month's 5.5% rise.
By comparison, average house prices increased to £296,000 (6.7% annual growth) in England, and £186,000 (4.6%) in Scotland, in the 12 months to March, according to the ONS.
