UK house prices rise by most since January, Halifax data shows
LONDON, Nov 7 (Reuters) - British house prices last month rose at the fastest pace since January, data from mortgage lender Halifax showed on Friday, adding to signs of demand in the property sector ahead of finance minister Rachel Reeves' budget on November 26.
House prices increased by 0.6% in monthly terms in October after a 0.3% fall in September to reach a new record of 299,862 pounds ($402,444.79) - well above a 0.1% rise predicted by economists in a Reuters poll and the biggest rise since January.
