House Prices up 0.8%

House prices rose by 0.8% in August, according to the Halifax.

This is the 2nd monthly rise in a row that Halifax has reported. However, prices were still 10.1% lower in the 3 months to August compared with the same time last year.

According to the Halifax, better affordability and low interest rates are driving an increased demand for housing, coupled with a lack of supply.

And a note of caution: housing market activity though is still less than half of what it was in 2007.
