Additionally, the outlook over the next 12 months is also expected to improve, with a net balance of 54 per cent expecting to see an increase in prices.<\/p>\n<p>This news comes even as demand from buyers saw a decline in October, ending a run of steady growth over the past 12 months. Despite this, sales activity continued to rise in Scotland, seeing a net balance of 26 per cent more transactions in October.<\/p>\n<p>Director RICS in Scotland Sarah Speirs said: \u201cIt is hard to get away from the issue of supply when it comes to the current state of the housing market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe legacy of the drop in new build following the onset of the global financial crisis is now really hitting home with both the sales and letting markets continuing to show demand outstripping supply on a month by month basis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRICS would like to see a commitment from the next Scottish Government administration that delivers a definite plan for delivering attainable targets across all housing tenures to ensure that supply needs are met.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Growth was also reported in the Scottish letting market, which saw demand outpace supply in the three months to October.
