LONDON (Reuters) – British house prices fell in October at the fastest monthly rate since February 2021, in a fresh sign of a weaker housing market, mortgage lender Halifax said on Monday.
House prices dropped 0.4% month-on-month last month, after a 0.1% fall in September, Halifax said.
In annual terms, house prices were 8.3% higher in October, slowing from 9.8% in September.
