UK house prices grew at an annual pace of 0.5% in December, the Nationwide building society has said, the slowest annual rate since February 2013.<\/p>\n

The lender says uncertainty over the economic outlook appears to be undermining confidence in the market.<\/p>\n

London and surrounding areas both saw small house price falls in 2018.<\/p>\n

Northern Ireland saw the biggest house price rises, up 5.8%. Prices in Wales climbed 4%, in Scotland they were up 0.9% and in England they rose 0.7%.<\/p>\n

December’s growth rate was a marked slowdown from the annual pace of 1.9% recorded by the Nationwide in November. <\/p>\n

The Nationwide’s chief economist, Robert Gardner, told the BBC the severity of the slowdown was unexpected: “It is a little bit surprising that house price growth has slowed as much as it has in the last month or so. <\/p>\n

“It seems to be the uncertain economic outlook that is really weighing on buyer sentiment. I think once that lifts then things should start to pick up to normal levels of about 2%.”<\/p>\n

He said a lot of it “depends on how we get through this Brexit uncertainty”. <\/p>\n
