If you're thinking of purchasing a property in Swindon in the coming weeks and months, you might want to get a move on if research from Rightmove and Oxford Economics is anything to go by.

According to a new report, house prices across the country are set to boom by a whopping 30% by 2019.

 

If you live in the South you can expect even steeper rises, with Swindon among the towns leading the way with a 40.4% rise in house prices predicted.

Miles Shipside, Director of Rightmove commented “Alongside the publication of the Rightmove monthly House Price Index which is based on new seller asking prices, we have unique access to other sources of property data from surveyors and property transaction prices at a very local level. This has enabled us to work with Oxford Economics to create a unique forecast that can be used as a guide by a number of businesses.

“Understanding the path of future house price growth is a key element of UK economic strategy and decision making, and our data driven forecasts contain insight not previously available from other commentators or the Government’s own forecasts produced by the Office for Budget Responsibility.”
