Buying a Property in Liverpool

When you mention Liverpool, perhaps one of the first things that will come to mind is the legendary football club. That, or you remember the distinct scouse accent that has almost nothing in common with nearby cities. With its rich history, unique architecture and thriving economy, Liverpool is one of the go-to choices for British cities to live in.

But what about the property prices? Is it worth moving to Liverpool, and what’s it like owning a home here?

Property Prices in Liverpool

Between July 2019 and July 2020, the average price of a property was only £139,894. This makes it extremely affordable compared to other major cities such as Manchester and London. Flats and maisonettes are around £107,967, making it a fantastic option for single professionals, couples or small families. Moving up to terraced houses, you can expect to buy a home for around just £121,965. Semi-detached houses average around £171,944 and detached average at £273,757.

There was a concerning drop in property prices during January 2020 where all property types saw an average drop of around 5.3%. That has since picked up and we’re now seeing an average growth of around 3% across all property types. However, flats are still a little cheaper than before at -1.2%, making it a worthwhile investment for small families and professionals.

So what about property prices now? Some of the most recently-sold properties in Liverpool includes a 3-bed semi-detached home that sold for £228,000 and a 3-bedroom terraced house that sold for £185,000. This should give you a rough idea of how much people are willing to pay for large family homes in Liverpool.

However, if you’re only looking to rent in Liverpool then you’ll find that prices are incredibly affordable with a 2-bedroom house costing around £600 PCM. This is below the national average of £885 PCM. So if you’re a single professional or are looking to start a small home with the intention to move later in the future, renting in Liverpool is actually a fairly solid choice.
