Average house price has risen more than 100 times since Queen was crowned | Mail Online

Today's average house price is 105 times higher than it was when the Queen was coronated in 1952 - making it seem as if we could all afford palaces now in comparison.
Climbing onto the property ladder required just £1,520 that year.
And in the Silver Jubilee in 1977, the average price was still only £9,737 - today's £160,000 average is 16 times higher than that.
