PricedOut > Home > Home Owner

Welcome to the Priced Out campaign, this page is our starting point for Home Owners.

As a homeowner you may feel that you are benefiting from rising house prices and perhaps are wondering what all the fuss is about.

The first thing to recognise is just how unaffordable house prices have become. They are literally the most expensive they have ever been both in real terms and in comparision to average salaries.

When house prices become unaffordable the impact is felt directly by people and our economy. Read more about the damage being caused by unaffordable house prices.

Many home owners, when thinking about rising house prices, tend to focus on the gain they have made on their current home but forget about the effect of higher prices on their next home. Try our "How Much Richer" calculator for an insight into how this issue may be affecting you.

You may have heard a lot in the media and on this website about how difficult it is for people trying to get onto the housing ladder. Try our "Would You Be Priced Out" calculator to see if you would be priced out if you were buying your first home today.

We think high house prices hurt home owners, we hope you agree with us. If you do join our campaign for affordable house prices.
