House prices up in Shropshire – as Telford and Wrekin sees dip
House prices in Shropshire increased by one per cent in August, new figures show.
The rise, which was more than the average for the West Midlands, contributed to the longer-term trend, which has seen property prices in the area grow by 2.4 per cent over the last year.
But Land Registry figures showed that, in Telford and Wrekin, house prices dropped by 1.5 per cent. The drop, however, does not reverse the longer-term trend, which has seen property prices in the area grow by two per cent over the last year.
According to the data, the average Shropshire house price in August was £283,168 – a one per cent increase on July.
