New research has revealed the least expensive places for homebuyers in the UK - and it's good news for those who want to get on the property ladder in the North East.
The research, conducted by PlumbNation , compared average property prices to the average size of a home around the country to find out which area offered home buyers the most 'bang for their buck'.
And it revealed that County Durham was the fifth most affordable local authority area in the whole of the country.
