The average house price in the United Kingdom (UK) peaked in November 2022, followed by three consecutive months of decline. The house price index is calculated using data on housing transactions and measures the development of house prices, with 2015 chosen as a base year when the index value was set to 100. In February 2023, the index reached 150.99, meaning that house prices have grown by over 51 percent since 2015.
