Acadata has released its latest house price results for the UK, which shows that house price growth has fallen to its slowest level since April 2012, falling in real terms:
Prices rose again in December – for the fifth month in a row – up 0.3%, or £875. Annual price growth continued to slow, however, and stands at its lowest level since April 2012, at just 0.6%. CPI inflation for November (the latest figure available), meanwhile, was more than three times this figure, at 2.2%, meaning house prices are falling in real terms.
