If you are looking for UK house prices by region, the official GOV.UK UK House Price Index (UK HPI) collection is the starting point. It covers England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and the reports are available in CSV format for analysis or download.
The collection confirms where the data can be found and how it is provided. It does not, by itself, give a particular price figure for every region in this article.
Which parts of the UK are covered?
The official UK HPI reports cover all four UK nations:
- England
- Scotland
- Wales
- Northern Ireland
Because the data is available in CSV format, it can be opened in spreadsheet software or used for further analysis. This is useful when comparing regional series, but the figures should be taken from the relevant official download rather than inferred from the existence of the collection.
How often is the data published?
The UK House Price Index is designated a National Statistic. However, publication timing is not necessarily identical for every part of the UK.
The Northern Ireland House Price Index is calculated and published quarterly. That cadence should not be assumed to apply uniformly to England, Scotland and Wales.
The GOV.UK collection lists a UK HPI data download for August 2026, shown as published on 21 October 2026. That is the date displayed in the cited collection; it should not be treated as proof that the entry is the latest available data outside that collection or that every regional series follows the same release schedule.
A caution about recent new-build estimates
Recent new-build figures need particular care. The source advises that estimates for new-build properties may be less representative, may be revised more substantially, and carry greater uncertainty because the availability of recent new-build data is limited.
That does not make the data unusable. It means that recent new-build estimates should be interpreted with the source’s warning in mind, especially when comparing them with longer-established data.
Where to check the figures
For regional UK house-price data, use the official GOV.UK UK House Price Index reports collection. Check the relevant release and download the accompanying CSV before quoting a price, change or comparison.
The collection is the appropriate place to confirm the coverage, release date and available data for the particular region and period you are studying.
Source note
The statements in this guide are based on the GOV.UK UK House Price Index reports collection. The collection supports the coverage, format, statistical designation, Northern Ireland publication cadence, August 2026 entry and new-build caveat described above. It does not supply specific regional price figures in the evidence used for this article.
