Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors<\/a> (RICS) the number of new instructions to sell properties in Northern Ireland increased for the first time this year during March.<\/p>\nThe RICS said 67 per cent of surveyors in Northern Ireland revealed prices had risen in the past three months. This was higher than any other UK region.<\/p>\n
The RICS also said as more potential buyers enter the market \u201cthere remains an ongoing imbalance between supply and demand which is acting to push prices upwards\u201d.<\/p>\n
RICS Northern Ireland spokesman Samuel Dickey said pressure on prices and support growth in transactions should ease up as more properties enter the market in the coming months.<\/p>\n
A total of 69 per cent of surveyors in Northern Ireland said they expect prices to continue to increase in the three months ahead.<\/p>\n
“Northern Ireland recorded the highest price balance of all UK regions during March and has the highest price expectations over the next three months.<\/p>\n
“This reflects the fact that the local market remains in recovery mode. Unlike other UK regions, average house prices here remain significantly below their peak and have a long way to go before they return to those levels.<\/p>\n
“Whilst new instructions to sell increased last month, new buyer inquiries are also rising strongly, which is effectively creating a situation where we have under-supply and prices are rising as a result.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut as more properties come onto the market, this should help address the imbalance.”<\/p>\n
