Key points:
  • Annual house price growth softened to 2.1% in August
  • House prices were down 0.1% month on month
  • Over half of properties in the owner occupier sector are classified as ‘underoccupied’

The figures make for interesting reading as the softening I suspect will be down to lots of people being on holiday. Tradionally now is the time where the pace starts to pick up as buyers will want to be in their new home by Christmas.
