We take a closer look at Yorkshire & the Humber region as part of our series of property spotlights, focusing on average house prices, the total number of sales and the size of the market around the country.
These figures are based on the latest data from the Land Registry
House Price Index, which helps to create a picture of the region’s housing

value of all property transactions in the past year. This has been
calculated by multiplying the average value of homes by the number of
sales.
