LONDON, Feb 16 (Reuters) – Asking prices for British homes held steady in the four weeks to February 7 after a post-budget relief rally over the Christmas and New Year period, property website Rightmove said on Monday.
Prices showed no change in monthly and annual terms, Rightmove said, after reporting a record 2.8% monthly rise and a 0.5% annual increase for the five weeks to January 10.
There have been other signs of a recovery in the housing market since finance minister Rachel Reeves announced her annual budget in late November. It included tax increases but the introduction of most of them was delayed.
