Summary
UK house prices edged up 0.2% in June for the first time since February, signaling fragile resilience as mortgage rates ease slightly. First-time buyers saw stronger annual growth at 0.8%, while Northern Ireland leads with 7.4% year-on-year gains—Scotland and Wales also rose. England remains mixed, with declines in the south and London, but growth in the north. Experts expect cautious momentum ahead, fueled by easing inflation and lower borrowing costs, though affordability remains the biggest hurdle.
