🏡 PROPERTY MARKET UPDATE | SEPTEMBER
So, what’s actually happening in the property market right now?
The headlines might make the market sound complicated — but locally, there are some encouraging signs.
📈 Dudley house prices are up 5% year-on-year.
🏠 Stourbridge remains a strong local market, with properties selling for an average of around £290,000 over the last year. Detached homes are averaging around £444,000.
📊 At a national level, house prices increased by 0.2% in August, with annual growth sitting at 1.6%.
But here’s the important part…
Buyers are still buying — they’re just being more selective.
That means presentation, marketing, positioning and, perhaps most importantly, getting the price right from day one can make a significant difference.
For sellers, September can be a great time to take stock.
