falling, held with established confidence, formed on 31 August 2026 from movements in 2026-07.
Homes sold in Conwy fell to 105 in January 2026. The average house price fell from £217,234 in February 2026 to £213,413 in May. Rents held close to steady: a two-bedroom home cost £722 a month in May and £726 in June, a three-bedroom home £840 in April, a home with four or more bedrooms £1,210 in March and a flat or maisonette £658 in July. Falling transactions and a falling sale price point the same way, while rents moved by a few pounds a month.
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 Conwy. Where no figure supports a direction we hold no view rather than a hedged one.

These figures carry no defensible direction of their own: a rising house price is good news to an owner and bad news to someone trying to buy, so we do not score one as an improvement. They are shown because they are part of the picture, and they did not decide the view above.
