The average price of a home in Britain has increased amid a better than expected economic outlook.
Values are up 0.8 per cent during the past month from £285,660 in February to £287,880 in March, according to Halifax.
It follows figures released by Nationwide last week, which showed prices fell year-on-year at their sharpest rate for 14 years in March. It said a typical home was worth £257,122, 4.6 per cent less than the peak in August 2022.
