Are house prices rising or falling in Newport right now?

• Latest ONS snapshot: The ONS local housing tool reports a provisional average house price in Newport of about £222,000 in September 2025, up from around £217,000 a year earlier.
• Annual growth: That equates to roughly 2.4% annual growth, slightly below the Wales-wide average but still firmly positive.
• Market feel: Price growth is steadier than during the post‑pandemic boom; buyers are more price‑sensitive, but well‑presented homes at realistic prices are still selling.
• By segment: Detached homes in Newport now average close to £390k, while flats sit nearer £110k–£120k, according to the same ONS data.
• Forward view: Independent analysts currently describe Newport as a broadly stable market with low single‑digit annual growth, but outcomes vary by area, property type and condition.

Official figures from the UK House Price Index and ONS show that Newport prices dipped slightly during the most turbulent points of the last few years, but they have since returned to gentle year‑on‑year growth. The latest release indicates that both first‑time buyers and home‑movers are paying more on average than a year ago, though the pace of increase is far more modest than in 2021–22.

Behind the averages there are still micro‑markets: popular school catchments and sought‑after streets can outperform the headline numbers, while homes that need work or are over‑priced may lag.
