Open House say asking prices are up according to Rightmove

According to Rightmove, the price for a house coming onto the market is at an all time high for the second month in a row!

The average selling price for a house is now at £294,542 which is £191 more then last months making the price index at a small 0.1% asking price rise.

Due to affordability constraints, mortgage approvals and general summer slowdown, there is still a drought in property sales.

Rightmove say that they see the biggest demand in excess supply and that the shortage is more keen for smaller homes with 2 bedrooms or less.

The highest number of property enquiries is for houses with 2 bedrooms or less, especially with first time buyers. This type of property ( 2 beds or less) sees 24% more enquiries then any other property type such as larger houses with 3 or 4 bedrooms. Smaller units benefit from demand from not only first-time buyers, but also downsizers and buy-to-let investors.

Rightmove states that visits to its website and enquiries to estate agents are up by 22 in June compared to this time last year, despite the fact that the number of properties coming to market is running at a weekly run-rate 10.6 per cent below the same period in 2014.

Rightmove says there are “signs of buyers hitting their affordability ceilings” thanks in part to a continuing shortfall in the number of new homes being built.

Sales from First Time Buyers Goes Up!

According to recent surveys and studies carried out by NAEA (National Association of Estate Agents) 26% of house sales in the UK which is just more then a quarter were to first time home buyers in April. Figures show that sales are in fact up by 22% in March, according to Aprils Housing Market Report from NAEA. However due to increasing prices many estate agents are warning it will become harder for first time buyers in the future.

93% of NAEA agents cannot see the potential for first time buyers having substantial cut through in the market in the next 5 years which is quite disappointing if you are in face a first time buyer. Not only this a further 55% of agents recon house prices will continue to increase making it even more difficult for first time buyers and pushing them out of the market.

The managing Director of NAEA has said "‘The market is notoriously tough for first time buyers. House prices continue to increase and lenders have tight and restrictive lending criteria,’ he also explained that ‘Whilst this month’s figures are positive and a step in the right direction, I’d like to think that with the help of 200,000 new starter homes and the Help to Buy ISA, first time buyers will be given even more help to get their foot on the ladder, however these things may take time to come to fruition,’

With the Conservatives who pledge to build 200,000 new starter homes this has created some great news for the housing market. Also 41% of agents believe that with help from the Help to Buy ISA will be very beneficial to first time buyers, giving them a better opportunity to save up for their home.

Why is 2015 the Perfect Year to Buy a Home?

Britain seems to be slowly but surely recovering from the economic crisis of 2008 as can be seen through the relatively small house price increase that is estimated for this year. This makes 2015 the perfect time to buy a property as home prices seem to have a had a much lower increase when compared to last year, which makes this year one of the best years to buy a property in the last few years. Open House can offer any advice on buying and selling properties, as Open House will be able to offer their expert advice to ensure that you have the best possible and honest advice possible. The staff at Open House are very experienced in the field and have worked as estate agents for many years, thus allowing them to offer these expertise to their clients. Thus, 2015 is the perfect year to buy a house due to a small estimated  increase that can be seen in source 1 (from the BBC).

Only a 4% increase makes this the perfect year to buy a house compared to last year that had a 7.2% increase which clearly shows that 2015 would be the perfect year to buy a property. Open House will be able to give you any help you may possible need to help capitalise on the great opportunity available due to this small rise in house prices from this year. This small increase can be seen in the prices of properties on Open House's network and will give you the chance to get the best possible price for your money before a large increase as seen last year.
