It is safe to say that the property market has undergone a considerable shake-up over recent years. House prices spiked sharply upwards from around May of 2020, and this trend continued through most of the proceeding two and a half years.

However, many forecasters predicted that property prices would fall in the UK in 2023. Many prospective sellers decided to not put their property on the market due to these forecasts.

However, data gathered by Chancellors points to a different story in parts of Herefordshire. Chancellors’ property price data indicates that the average sold property price has increased in Hereford and Chesham over the last 12 months.
