rising, held with strong confidence, formed on 5 October 2026 from movements in 2026-07.
Home sales in North Ayrshire have been rising, and the view is held strongly. Homes sold numbered 238 in November 2025, 256 in December and 252 in May 2026, each recorded as rising against the usual pattern for its month. The average house price rose with them: 132,441 in February 2026, 131,315 in March, 133,496 in April, 140,946 in June and 143,560 in July 2026, every one of those also recorded as rising. Eight rising readings across transactions and prices together is a market gaining on both sides at once.
A view is formed only where the evidence names a figure you can check. Each movement listed as a reason had to be large enough to matter and distinctive in at least one way — unusual against this area's own history, unusual against comparable areas, or sustained over several periods. A movement shared with peers counts for less, because it says something about the country rather than about North Ayrshire. Where no figure supports a direction we hold no view rather than a hedged one.
