Interesting article by “The Negotiator” (the leading magazine for estate agents)
House prices increased 1% to £169,042 in December, marking the sixth consecutive rise in prices over the last year.
Prices also saw the first annual increase since March 2008, with prices up 1.1%.
Martin Ellis, housing economist for Halifax, says: “The significant cut in interest rates following the worldwide financial upheaval in the autumn of 2008 has markedly reduced the burden of servicing a mortgage for many households. This has helped to stimulate housing demand, albeit from a low base. The recent improvement in the labour market, highlighted by increasing numbers of people in employment in both September and October, has also supported housing demand.
“The prospects for the market this year will depend on how the UK economy evolves and whether there is a significant increase in the supply of properties for sale. Overall, our current view is that house prices will be flat during 2010.”
Arising from an initiative by the Harrow Road Neighbourhood Partnership, the area surrounding the Prince of Wales junction – where Fernhead Road, Harrow Road, Walterton Road, Great Western Road and Elgin Avenue meet – will be rebranded Maida Hill. The area has actually been known as Maida Hill since 1810, and that’s how it’s referred to in maps.
As part of that initiative, Maida Hill Market is now open for business
on the purpose built site at Maida Hill. The Market is open every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday offering a wide range of food and goods with cuisines from around the world and is proving to be a popular meeting place for the neighbourhood. The green and white striped canvas stalls are eye-catching and invite the passer-bye to stop and visit.
We, John Barclay Estate and Management do enjoy lunchs at Maida Hill Market and strongly recommend everyone to stop by and try Paella, which is the best Paella ever tasted.
Asking prices for properties new to the market have shot up 2.8% from last month, Rightmove reported today, making it the largest October rise for six years.
The trend is almost right across Britain, although price rises are the most pronounced in London. In some parts of London, prices jumped by over 12%. The only regions where prices did not rise were the North and East Anglia.
