Zoopla UK House Price Index – OCTOBER 2023

Executive summary

• House price inflation has slowed from 9.6% to -1.1% over the last year
• 4 in 5 housing markets are registering small annual price falls
• Regulation of mortgage lending has built market resilience to higher mortgage rates although    household buying power remains lower

• Transactions have been hit hardest and will be 23% lower than 2022
• First-time buyers and cash buyers account for 2 in 3 sales in 2023
• Low price falls and 5% mortgage rates mean housing is still expensive
• We expect UK house prices to fall 2% over 2024 as rising incomes steadily repair housing affordability
• 2024 is set for another year of 1m sales. This could be higher if mortgage rates fall back towards 4% sooner than expected in 2024
