This report covers the period January 2008 to June 2008
Agricultural land and property - East Midlands
Land prices increased by 61% on year ago levels,
compared to 28% in the previous half.
Demand continued to increase in both sectors,
although the pace of demand remained very strong in
the non-residential sector. In the residential sector,
demand pretty much stabilised, increasing at the
slowest pace since Q4 2005, which is well below the
survey’s long run average. Land availability picked up
slightly in the residential sector, while in the nonresidential
sector, it picked up at the fastest pace since
H1 2007.
Individual farmer’s share and agricultural businesses
share of purchases jumped respectively from 49% to
56% and from 4% to 12%. This was more than offset
by a fall in the share of non-farmers purchases from
39% to 22%.
