House prices fall as demand weakens across UK
The fall came as the number of new buyers registering with estate agents fell 1.2% in August, compared to 1.1% growth in July, as demand for new housing weakened, property analyst Hometrack said. Elsewhere, the survey showed the percentage of properties being sold for the asking price dropped from 92.7% in July to 92.5% in August, while sales agreed fell by 3.6% and the time properties were on the market increased to 9.5 weeks last month from 9.4 weeks in July.

Bad journalism. “…the survey showed the percentage of properties being sold for the asking price dropped from 92.7% in July to 92.5% in August” is not true. 92.5% refers to the average amount of asking price achieved.

Definitely not as reliable as finding comments in these types of articles with the word “reliable” written by someone
