Leeds house price trend, 1995–today
Nominal (not inflation-adjusted) average prices from the UK House Price Index for the Leeds local authority:
| When | Average price | UKHPI (2015 = 100) |
|---|---|---|
| 2005 | £133,800 | 58.5 |
| 10 years ago | £155,817 | 68.1 |
| April 2026 | £246,882 | 107.9 |
UKHPI is mix-adjusted (it controls for the type of homes sold) and published with a ~2-month lag. Figures are nominal — real-terms growth is lower once inflation is accounted for. This is a trend, not a forecast.
