The UK Top Ten Property Hot Spots
Northern Ireland has the top ten fastest rising property hotspots in the UK. A regional survey bathroomking at 489 towns in Northern Ireland found that property values have gone up 55% since last year – property in Craigavon in 2006 was an average of £118,551, now that average is £183,795. Overall the average price of property in the region is £203,815, with Belfast enjoy a 61% rise.
In fact Northern Ireland is enjoying the steepest increase of property prices anywhere in the UK since 1973. This is no doubt due to the end of violence in province; since the signing of the Good Friday agreement in 1998, prices have jumped 281% compared with 179% in the rest of the UK.
So, the top ten UK hot spots in full – Craigavon, Newtownards, Newry, Larne. Newtownabbey, Armagh, Downpatrick, Belfast, Antrim and Lisburn.
But what about just England? Here are the top ten English property hot spots – Cheltenham, Openshaw, Godalming, Wapping, Bilsington, Tetbury, Ormskirk, Spennymoor, Penn and Edenbridge.
But, of course, experts are warning that such astronomical growth can’t last. Remarkably, despite the housing boom, Northern Ireland trails behind the rest of the UK economically. The average income of households is 20% lower than the rest of the UK, with the average UK salary at around £24,000; this means that someone purchaseing alone would need a mortgage of more than eight times their annual pay to afford a property.
The survey also found that the cheapest town in UK in which to buy a property was Lochgelly in Fife, the average house price being £104.738, whilst the average price of a home in Edinburgh now stands at a record £207,669.
In England research shows that a north/south divide is emerging showing that prices are continuing to rise in London and the south east and west, whilst prices are slowing in the north.

When you think about what those who are elected to high office are doing, Is it right that the working class person should pay to give them a life of luxury, and serve them by policing fellow working class people through participating in the onslaught on people trying to survive in tough times. An unemployed person is made to survive on around £3000 a year (£60 a week) when on income support in the UK. This level is set by MP’s in parliament. For those that complain, they’re told to purchase second hand clothes and furniture. For the average working person, a £10000-£15000 job is all they’ve to pay for every necessity under the sun, including dental and medicine costs, for themselves and their family. MP’s are forever telling these working classes to cut their demand for better pay. Yet for a minister on over £100000 a year, it isn’t possible to survive on this tiny salary and so we the average working class people have to pay them more through tax towards the most expensive sofa’s, tables and chairs and the most advanced and expensive tv’s and video equipment – so they can see themselves on the news. Do you really want to serve them and their cause? Now you can report or snitch on the people next door who YOU THINK may be fiddling the system to survive, while other are fiddling it to live in luxury. THANKS FOR READING THIS!
