Warning:

Local housing data are based on a smaller number of properties than our national estimates. This means that short-term trends are more variable. We advise looking at trends over a year or longer.

We regularly revise our house prices estimates. All of the house price data from the last 12 months and UK-level rent estimates for the latest two months are provisional and subject to revision.

Figures in this article are not seasonally adjusted.

Scotland rents data are mainly for advertised new lets, which were not subject to Scotland's in-tenancy price increase cap and are not subject to temporary changes to the Rent Adjudication system. See the More data on the housing market section for further details on Scotland's rents data.
