The UK Government Land Registry's House Price Index (HPI) is the most accurate independent house price index available. Using the data set of completed sales, it is the only index based on repeat sales. It includes figures at national, regional, county and London borough level. The HPI figure that is published each month is The Land Registry's way of comparing the average house price today to what it was in January 1995, with the index set then at 100.
You can search the index for average house prices in any area of England and Wales for any range of months since January 1995. A price index for the area (set at 100 on January 1995) will also be shown. You can also compare any two areas.
