The average asking price of UK homes fell 2.1% over the last month according to Rightmove’s house price index – the biggest December dip in four years.
According to the online property portal, the average asking price of properties on its platform was £359,137 in December, down £7,862 from November.
The decrease follows a 1.1% dip in November, and adds to the growing amount of data showing the UK property market is cooling down after two years of rapid house price growth.
