Aberdeen tops a 10-strong list of affordable homes for prospective homeowners. You might guess that they are all located north of Watford Gap.
Aberdeen in Scotland has been hailed the cheapest city to get onto the housing ladder, where average asking prices for a typical first-time buyer home stand at £102,601.
The ‘Granite City’ was famously known as the oil capital of Europe. But as the focus shifts to renewable energy, first-time buyers could get a ringside seat for the city’s changing dynamics (as well as take advantage of affordable house prices).

Sunderland and Carlisle follow, with average asking prices for a first-time buyer property closely aligned at £111,263 and £111,268 respectively.
