Stay up to date with average property prices per property type

After all, there is a significant difference between flats and detached properties, which means buyers aren’t likely to choose directly between these two options. Therefore, knowing the individual average prices is more informative. At Austin Property Services, we are keen to provide our clients with the best standard of service, and we will now provide the average price paid for property types in Bournemouth as of June 2018:

• Average price paid for flats in past 12 months stands at £204,463
• Average price paid for terraced properties in past 12 months stands at £261,013
• Average price paid for semi-detached properties in past 12 months stands at £276,052
• Average price paid for detached properties in past 12 months stands at £405,941

This information will provide buyers and sellers with a stronger starting point. Of course, while the average price paid is hugely informative, the first price that many people will come across when it comes to properties is the asking price. There has been a lot of discussion about asking prices with various sources and specialists stating that asking prices have risen in recent times, creating a gap between asking price and the price paid.
