Explained in plain English

Is my house losing value?

While the average UK house price remained flat at £298,441 in September, this 0% growth means its real value is likely falling. Inflation, which measures the rising cost of living, means money buys less over time. If your house price isn't increasing by at least the rate of inflation, its purchasing power is eroding.
