The price of homes for sale in England and Wales fell in August, posting the biggest drop since November, as the summer lull added to uncertainty surrounding Britain’s decision to leave the European Union, property website Rightmove said on Monday.
Asking prices fell by a monthly 1.2 percent, according to a survey by Rightmove that covers properties put on sale between July 10 and Aug. 6, after shedding 0.9 percent in July.
The biggest drop was in London and the South East, with asking prices falling by 2.6 percent and 2.0 percent respectively.
