Affordability

Earnings ratio unavailable

House-price-to-earnings ratios are published by ONS for England and Wales only; no Scottish or Northern Irish ratio is shown or estimated.

A listing is not a sale.

Asking prices and time to find a buyer come from a different sample, method and date from completed sales.

Rightmove publishes asking prices for Great Britain only; none are shown for this area.

Limits of this evidence

  • The ONS workplace-earnings affordability series used here covers England and Wales; a comparable value is unavailable here.
  • Rental data collection differs from England and Wales. Northern Ireland uses advertised new lets; Scotland historically used predominantly advertised new lets, with more achieved rents now collected. Cross-country rent comparisons need care.
  • NI HPI estimates are quarterly and repeated across monthly rows by the publisher; July 2026 reflects Q2 2026. Sales figures in monthly rows are apportioned from quarterly totals, not separately observed monthly counts.
