What this doesn't tell you

  • An average moves when the mix of homes let or sold moves, not only when prices do.
  • Scotland's rents are for rental areas, not councils, so a Scottish council has no rent figure here.
  • HM Land Registry leaves its two newest months of sales blank while they are still being registered, so sales stop at April 2026.
  • This note prints the editions published on 19 August 2026. A later edition may revise a figure; that would be a new note, not an edit to this one.
  • How rents and prices moved over earlier years is not here: a release note prints one edition's own month.
  • Northern Ireland is not covered.
  • Average house price, June 2026 for Isles of Scilly: HM Land Registry printed no figure.
  • Average rent, July 2026 for Isles of Scilly, City of London: ONS printed no figure.
  • Residential sales, April 2026 for Isles of Scilly: HM Land Registry printed no figure.

How we worked this out

Every figure on this page is one the publisher printed, read from the file named below and checked against the place it sits in that file. Nothing on it is our arithmetic.
