We are pleased to announce that we will resume publication of the UK HPI on 19 August when we’ll begin by publishing the April 2020 index, following the suspension of UK HPI in May 2020.

We’ll be working to a provisional publication schedule that will see us publish interim releases with a view to resuming normal publication in October with the publication of the August 2020 index. The schedule will ensure we can use as many transactions as possible in each of the suspended periods following the issues caused by the coronavirus outbreak.

The initial release will not contain heatmaps – this will subsequently be reviewed on a release by release basis. As per our usual revisions policy, the figures for all months are first estimates and are subject to revision in subsequent periods.

Data Publication date
April 2020 index 19 August
May 2020 index 2 September
June 2020 index 16 September
July 2020 index 7 October
August 2020 index 21 October
