The property market is still cooling, despite a slight rise in house prices during October, official figures show.
Prices rose by 0.1% in that month, the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) said, compared with 0.3% in September.
The annual rate of house price inflation was 11.3%, up from 10.8% the previous month.
But the average figure for the three months to October, seen as a more reliable indicator, fell to 11.1%.
DCLG calculated that the average price of a home in the UK is now £220,195, just £84 more than the average price in September.
