Northern mortgage hotspots

Economic growth figures released over the summer generally proved stronger than analysts had expected. Global growth for the whole of 2024 is now likely to be 3.2% and 3.3% in 2025 - a healthy pace of growth after a difficult few years

Six Northern cities have seen dramatic rises in mortgage searches, new analysis1 has revealed. 

Leeds, Bradford, Manchester, Liverpool, Sheffield and Newcastle now account for almost 11% of all mortgage search activity, up by two-thirds on last year. Indeed, activity in these six cities is up 29.5% as a proportion of all searches. 

The figures suggest that more buyers, especially first timers, may be considering more affordable housing options outside London.
