Second report shows rise in house prices

Inflation has hit the prices of second-hand houses again according to a new report.

Inflation has hit the prices of second-hand houses again according to a new report.

The average price of second hand property rose by 6.4% during the period April to June.

The new estimates have been announced by auctioneers Sherry Fitzgerald.

Prices are reported to have risen by an estimated 12.3% during the first six months of this year altogether for second hand property.

The rate of price inflation is a reflection of the market in relation to the turbulence of last year, according to economists.

However, economists are saying that the price rise is not an indication of a long term trend.
