Six Northern cities have seen dramatic rises in mortgage searches, new analysis1 has revealed. 

Leeds, Bradford, Manchester, Liverpool, Sheffield and Newcastle now account for almost 11% of all mortgage search activity, up by two-thirds on last year. Indeed, activity in these six cities is up 29.5% as a proportion of all searches.
