"Mapping out the average house prices in each landmark year of her reign just shows the massive surge that has happened, and many will be questioning how much further house prices will rise."
The data analysis has found that house prices have jumped a massive 2,432% since 1977, when the Queen had been on throne for 25 years. The biggest increase was between the Silver Jubilee and Golden Jubilee – marking half a century since her coronation – when the national average house price jumped 937% from £10,926 to £113,304.
In the five years between her Sapphire Jubilee and now, there has been an increase of 25%.
Ben Thompson, Deputy CEO at Mortgage Advice Bureau, commented: “A lot has happened since the Queen was coronated 70 years ago, and we’ll be celebrating across the country in June.
“Mapping out the average house prices in each landmark year of her reign just shows the massive surge that has happened, and many will be questioning how much further house prices will rise. It’s important that buyers don’t get too disheartened by the fact house prices have continued with their extraordinary growth rate, and that there are ways to get onto the property ladder.”
