House Prices 'Unchanged in May'
BBC News website, Friday 27th June 2008. 'House prices in England
and Wales were unchanged in May and up 1.8% over the year, the Land
Registry says. But it said that sales volumes during March were
half of the number in March 2007, at 53,080. The figures, which are
based on completed property sales, are at odds with a sharp fall in
house prices reported by the UK's major lenders. The Registry said
annual house growth fell for the ninth month running. The average
cost of a home was 183,266 pounds.'
