The Guardian - Halifax figures
We were quoted in The Guardian regarding the March spike in house prices according to Halifax’s latest figures:
Kristjan Byfield of London estate agents Base Property Specialists, said: "The mad spike in March was a combination of extremely low sales volumes still skewing the figures and the brief rush to beat the stamp duty deadline. The danger is that seeing headline price rises like this will make sellers even more unrealistic about their asking prices. People read the headlines and they act accordingly. The truth is that the UK property market is a pastiche of micro markets."
