Rightmove - "Price growth slows as stamp duty deadline looms, but activity remains robust"

The average asking price of resale homes coming to market rises by 0.5% (+£1,805) this month to £367,994, a muted price rise for this time of year as new sellers lower their price expectations. This is due to the looming stamp duty deadline and high seller competition, with the number of available homes for sale at a 10-year high.
