The Glasgow housing market
The average price of a home in Glasgow in 2005 was around £125,000. However, the variation across the city means that some areas are much more affordable than others. If you are unsure, it may be worth seeking the advice of a solicitor or estate agent to identify the areas best for you, given your budget and travel needs.
There have been large increases in house prices in Glasgow since 2000 and this has made it difficult for some households on moderate incomes to afford to buy property in some parts of the city.
Details of house prices by area are available.
There are now schemes to help those who cannot access the open market, including shared ownership schemes with housing associations - see the section on Other Ownership Options for more detailed information.
