House prices strengthened in March to post their biggest
monthly gain since August, according to surprise figures from the UK’s biggest
mortgage lender. The average price of a UK home rose 1.5% to hit £227,871,
Halifax said. Prices in the three months to March were 2.7% higher than a year
earlier, up from the 1.8% annual growth recorded in February. The figures were
an unexpected boost for the housing market after months of lacklustre growth and
declines in December and January reported by Halifax. Read more on the Guardian
