UK housing Prices hit average of £292,000 in completely broken housing market

    UK housing market House price growth accelerated in the UK during January 2016, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

Across the English regions, the South East recorded the fastest growth at 11.7% to an average of £374,000. London's average rose 10.8% to £551,000, the highest of all regions. The Nor...
