      Your Mortgage commissioned Prophit, a data analysis organisation, to predict what could happen to average prices in the next five years. Prophit has taken a range of economic data from a number of sources and constructed a powerful computer programme. Key information includes Gross Domestic Product, inflation forecasts and interest rates from a range of City analysts.

      Demographics, including regional and national population trends and shifts are included, plus employment forecasts as well as current and projected individual income levels. Last, but not least, current and expected levels of housing stock are in the mix, overlaying historic houses prices from the Land Registry.

      The forecasts have been prepared for local authority areas. The estate agents' adage of 'location, location, location' means prices will always vary at street level.

      It is essential to remember that these are only predictions and that forecasts cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, no one should enter into any transaction on the basis of these predictions.

        Is it not powered by Phil and Kirstie ?

        The C4 program 'Best Places to Buy in Britain' was able to state categorically by what percentage a property in for example Dumphole nr Hull would grow in price over 5 years.

                Only a 23.19% cumulative growth

                I've got 44.15% in Marylebone and even 43.63% in dodgy Bethnal Green.
                How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                    I bought my current house in October 07 - these indicators do not take into account the fact that the market started to go down around this time - I got mine about 20k below the market value according to this and houses where I live simply are not moving as the prices are to high

                    I would be very suprised if many areas grow by more than 10% over the next 5 years

                    Starter homes are tooo expensive so people cannot get on the ladder - so there is noone coming through to buy the houses therefore the prices will stay low.

                    Maybe!
