LONDON—British house prices fell for a fourth month in a row in June as COVID-19 restrictions continued to depress the market, the longest run of monthly declines since 2010, mortgage lender Halifax said on Tuesday.
Halifax said average house prices dropped by 0.1 percent in June after a 0.2 percent fall in May, a smaller decline than most economists had forecast in a Reuters poll. Prices in the three months to June were 0.9 percent lower than in the first quarter of 2020, the largest quarterly fall since 2011.
