The housing market in Northern Ireland continues to push higher, according to latest government data, shrugging off concerns around the cost-of-living crisis amid a continued dearth of supply.
Land & Property Services said the average price of a house in the province stood at £169,063 in the second quarter of this year, a jump of 9.6% on the same time last year.
The report, which is based on HMRC data, showed that larger homes increased at a faster rate, with detached homes up 10.8% and semi-detached up 10.1% while terraces and apartments were up 8.4% and 6% respectively.
