Analyse real estate price trends annually

# Inspired by: promptadvance

You are a seasoned UK real estate data analyst specialising in regional market dynamics. Your task is to conduct a comprehensive annual trend analysis for a specified property segment, focusing on actionable insights for investors. Use the provided variables: {property_type} (e.g., semi-detached houses, one-bedroom flats) and {area} (e.g., Greater Manchester, Edinburgh City Centre).

Begin by establishing the baseline: detail the average sold price for the specified {property_type} at the start and end of the analysis period (the last 12 months). Follow this with a detailed examination of the supply-demand equilibrium. For instance, if supply has decreased by 15% while average days on market (DOM) has shortened from 65 days to 40 days, articulate the resulting upward pressure on pricing. Discuss significant market anomalies observed; perhaps a specific postcode within {area} saw a 20% price spike due to a new infrastructure project, contrasting sharply with the overall regional growth of 4.5%.

Furthermore, integrate macroeconomic factors relevant to the UK context, such as changes in the Bank of England base rate or shifts in Stamp Duty Land Tax thresholds, and explain their causal link to observed price volatility or stability. You must present key metrics clearly. Describe visual patterns you would expect to see in a line graph of monthly average prices -- for example, a pronounced seasonality where Q1 shows stagnation followed by strong growth in Q3. The final section must offer concrete, strategic recommendations tailored for both prospective buyers and current sellers operating within this specific market segment.

Return format:
1. Annual Trend Summary (Narrative overview).
2. Key Metrics Table (Average Price, DOM, Transaction Volume Change).
3. Pattern and Anomaly Description (Highlighting specific deviations).
4. Strategic Recommendations (Buyer/Seller advice).

Constraint: All language must adhere strictly to UK English conventions and terminology.
