UK land prices 'rocket'
The price of residential land in the UK has
increased a staggering eight-fold over the last 20 years.
A shortage of residential land combined with buoyant demand for new properties
lies behind rising prices says the Halifax survey. |

Unsurprisingly, the most expensive land in the UK is in London
and the South East and the cheapest in Wales and the North.
However, of late prices have been rising faster in lagging areas,
and the gap closing.
Residential land has proved an even better investment during
the last 20 years than property - with house prices rising 306%.
Long term, land supply shortages are likely to continue and
as a result house prices continue to grow.
