Most active housing markets across the North East and Yorkshire region
Property prices in the North East were 1.7% higher year-on-year and 3.3% across Yorkshire and the Humber as the housing market reopened in June. Activity across the market has been brisk; nationally the average time taken to sell a property fell to 53 days in August, down from 62 days in August 2019.
