Government shake up of house price indices

The Inside Edge: Government shake up of house price indices

The UK Government has just announced that it has asked the Office of National Statistics to investigate the coherence and comparability of house price indices.
Tax payers are currently funding two indices, produced by the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) and the Land Registry.
Add in the indices produced by the RICS, major estate agents, property portals and building societies and you can begin to see why the general public gets confused as to the state of the market.
