The average price tag on a home in Britain increased by 0.5 per cent or £1,805 month-on-month in February, marking a slower pace after a fast start to the year, according to a property website.
From April, stamp duty discounts for some home buyers will reduce, and Rightmove said February’s monthly price increase is more subdued than usual, being below the longer-term average of 0.8 per cent.
