THE difference between the asking and selling prices for homes shrank to just 1.9 per cent last month a report shows.
The figure was down from 6.3 per cent in May and sales also held up last month despite fewer properties coming on to the market, according to a survey for the National Association of Estate Agents.
The average estate agent sold ten homes in June for the third month in a row, up from six in December. The average asking price for a semi-detached home was £210,755 in June, but they typically sold for £11,869 less at £198,886.
Flats are faring much better, with the average asking price £144,048, compared to an average selling price of £143,049.
Gary Smith, president of the NAEA, said: ‘The housing market is in a far stronger position than it was 12 months ago.’
