According to Zoopla, property prices in Clackmannanshire rose 3.6% over the past year, ahead of the national average. The increase has added £5,000 to the typical home, with the average value now sitting at £142,800.
Mortgage rates have played a crucial role in shaping the current state of the market. Initially, lenders reduced rates to compete in a market of low activity, anticipating an early reduction in the Bank of England base rate. The base rate cut, now expected in May, is seen as a response to a weaker than previously expected economy in 2023 and a faster than anticipated fall in inflation.
Rental markets have not been left unaffected. The annual rental growth across the UK slowed to 8.3% in 2023, down from 8.8% in the previous year. Despite this deceleration, rental growth remains historically high, suggesting a market that continues to face affordability pressures.
