Properties in London and the South East suffer most but other regions, such as Wales and England's west, see rising prices.
"Growth in Wales and the west of England was offset by a sustained fall in London and falling prices in the South East for the first time since 2011."
He added:"Elsewhere in the UK, however, house prices continued to rise. The highest price growth was in the North West, with annual house price inflation of 4.0%. The Midlands also maintained strong annual house price growth, particularly in the West Midlands, with annual growth of 2.9%." "Pent up demand has been building for months and Brits are ready to move. The extended negotiation period is not going to stop them."
