Higher-value homes bear the brunt of price declines in Edinburgh

'With some sellers still holding out for last year’s prices, it’s the number of homes changing hands rather than their price that’s bearing the brunt of the slowdown,' says Hamptons.

Knight Frank expects Edinburgh's average property value to drop 10% over the next 18 months.

Zoopla expects average UK property prices to be 5% lower by the end of the year - but that would still be 15% higher than pre-pandemic levels.
