rising, held with strong confidence, formed on 5 October 2026 from movements in 2026-07.
The average house price in Dundee City has been rising, and the view is held strongly. It was 137,392 in February 2026, 134,450 in March, 138,425 in April, 142,913 in May and 147,993 in June 2026, and every one of those readings was recorded as rising against the usual pattern for its month. Homes sold numbered 169 in January 2026, 163 in February and 236 in May. Five consecutive months all rising is an unusually clean run for a monthly price series, and the transaction figures show the market is active rather than the price moving on thin volume.
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 Dundee City. 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.
