HBOS released House Price figures this morning that compares like for like housing price changes throughout the UK. As well as being the longest running House series data it is also a useful inflationary figure.

Although the figure showed a smaller increase than last month, the 0.2% increase published was different to the expected decline and has helped to bring about Sterling strength across the board including against both the US and Candian Dollar.
