\"Colleen“Buyers are weighing up value more carefully in the current market, and this analysis shows just how much variation there can be in what the same budget buys in different parts of Britain,” said Colleen Babcock (pictured right), property expert at Rightmove. “For some movers, the price of an average home could mean a flat in a more expensive city market, while in other areas it could stretch to a much larger family home.<\/p>\n

“With the number of homes for sale at historically high levels<\/a> for this time of year, homes that feel well-priced for their size, location and condition are more likely to stand out. Affordability remains a key driver of buyer behaviour, and many movers are taking the time to compare what they can get for their budget before making a decision.”<\/p>\n
